Carlos Alcaraz reached the quarterfinals of Roland Garros 2025 after defeating Ben Shelton (7-6(8), 6-3, 4-6, 6-4). And these were his first words at the end of the match on Eurosport's microphones: "We respect each other a lot every time we play, we try to entertain the audience. Both of us played a very complete match. For me, it's incredible to have Shelton on the circuit for the energy he always brings on the court. But it was also a very tough match, I fought against myself, I was angry with myself, and I'm very happy that those negative thoughts couldn't overcome me in the tough moments."

Frances Tiafoe continues to live his dream adventure at Roland Garros 2025. After reaching his first octaves, he makes it to the quarter-finals after a clear victory over Daniel Altmaier by 6-3, 6-3, 7-6(4) after two hours and 20 minutes of play. The American doesn't want to wake up from this dream in Paris and will fight to reach the semi-finals against the winner of the match between Lorenzo Musetti and Holger Rune.

The clay courts of Roland Garros fit Carlos Alcaraz like a glove. It's not just his title from last year that confirms it, but two facts that attest to how special Paris is starting to become for the native of Murcia. After reaching the quarterfinals, he joins Mats Wilander and Rafael Nadal as the three youngest players to reach the quarterfinals four times in a row. Additionally, he also becomes the fifth player since the beginning of the Open Era to reach the quarterfinals four times before turning 23. In this list, we find once again Nadal and Wilander, but also Andre Agassi and Björn Borg. Legendary names that Alcaraz is already matching.

Hailey Baptiste woke up Jessica Bouzas. The Spaniard had the goal of going as far as possible in Roland Garros, but the American prevented her in a match where she was very effective with her serve. In this way, the American advances to the round of 16 after winning by 7-6(4), 6-1 in an hour and 29 minutes. Her next opponent will be the winner of the match between Sofia Kenin and Madison Keys, while the Galician says goodbye to the Parisian major, where she matched her best result in a Grand Slam.

The Italian, who defeated Lehecka in the third round of Roland Garros, gives his opinion on the controversy surrounding night sessions without women's matches.
For many, and even at just 23 years old, Jannik Sinner is the greatest Italian tennis player of all time. His world number one ranking and three Grand Slam titles endorse him, but after his incredible victory today against Jiri Lehecka (6-0, 6-1, 6-2) in the third round of Roland Garros, he has achieved another record that confirms his status as a legend of Italian tennis. The world number one now has a total of 71 Grand Slam victories, tying with Fabio Fognini to become the second Italian with the most wins in the majors. Only Nicola Pietrangeli surpasses him, with 86 victories, a record that Sinner is soon expected to surpass.

The Czech, who was overcome by the Italian tennis whirlwind, assures that only the Spaniard can beat him at Roland Garros and confesses, "I thought I wouldn't win any games against him."
Grand Slams fit Jannik Sinner like a glove. The number one has not only won three of the last major tournaments (Australian Open 2024, 2025, and US Open 2024), but after a great victory against Jiri Lehecka (6-0, 6-1, 6-2), he becomes the only player on the circuit to have reached the fourth round in the last eight Grand Slams. That is, from Wimbledon 2023 to Roland Garros 2025, confirming the Italian's consistency on the big stages.
