These are the eliminated seeded players this Monday, May 26th at Roland Garros 2025

Just like in the first day of Roland Garros, the second day also saw a few surprises in the form of eliminations. Although there were fewer seeded players eliminated today, they were more notable. This was the case for Taylor Fritz, the number four seed, who exited in the early stages after losing in four sets to Daniel Altmaier (7-5, 6-3, 3-6, 6-1). It was also the case for Fran Cerúndolo, the 18th seed, who was defeated by Gabriel Diallo in three sets (7-5, 6-3, 6-4). In the women's draw, the only surprise of significance was that Emma Navarro, the ninth seed, was overwhelmed by Jessica Bouzas (6-0, 6-1).

Sinner, about his next match against Cerúndolo: "It's going to be tough and I'll have to raise my level if I want it to be even"

Jannik Sinner sweated more than expected to defeat a great Jesper De Jong. The number one showed a slightly lower level than on the first day and is aware that he will have to raise it if he wants to beat his next opponent, Fran Cerúndolo. "The last time I played here, I lost against him on this court. He's an incredible player. Having an incredible season. He had a great tournament last week. It's going to be tough. I need to raise my level if I want to make it even. These are exactly the challenges I need. I'm trying to understand where my game is. It's going to be a good challenge and a good test for me. We'll see how it goes," the Italian concluded.

Fran Cerúndolo is one of the standout names in 2025. Despite not having won any titles yet this season, the Argentine is reaching the final rounds of many tournaments, and the ATP in Rome is no exception. The Buenos Aires native made it to the round of 16 after defeating Sebastian Ofner by 6-2, 6-4 in an hour and 17 minutes. Now, the South American could face a greater threat as he may meet Jannik Sinner, provided the number one player wins his third-round match against Jesper De Jong.

Nico Jarry left the 2025 ATP Rome with a rather worrying situation. The Chilean player, a finalist in the previous edition, lost in the second round of the Italian Masters 1000 against Fran Cerúndolo, which causes him to lose a significant amount of points in the ranking. Nico drops 93 positions, falling to number 146 in the world, complicating the Chilean's role in his participation in the Grand Slams.
