Image
  The opening week of the 2026 French Open at Roland Garros has produced one of the most unpredictable Grand Slam tournaments in recent memory. Before the tournament began, most attention centered on world No. 1 Jannik Sinner, veteran legend Novak Djokovic, and the leading contenders in a highly competitive women's field.
