World No. 1 Jannik Sinner has suffered a shock five-set defeat at Roland Garros, stalling his bid to complete a career Grand Slam and forcing a period of recovery ahead of Wimbledon. The loss comes after a long winning run and intense focus on Paris.
Poland’s Maja Chwalinska has reached the French Open final after defeating Anna Kalinskaya in a tight semifinal; Mirra Andreeva is in the final after earlier semifinals, marking the first all-non-retired final pairing since 1992. Zverev will also contest the men’s final.
Alexander Zverev has clinched his maiden Grand Slam title by beating Flavio Cobolli in a dramatic French Open final, becoming the first German man to win a major since Boris Becker in 1996. The match featured a tense fifth set after Cobolli recovered from a nervy start to force a decider. Arnaldi’s late withdrawal due to illness reshaped the event’s finals lineup.
