The 2025 edition of Roland Garros, also known as the French Open, is set to deliver two weeks of thrilling tennis as the world’s top players compete for clay-court supremacy in Paris.
Beginning Sunday, May 25, and running through Sunday, June 8, the second Grand Slam of the year offers full coverage in the United States thanks to a new decade-long broadcast deal that will bring every match and storyline to screens nationwide.
This year, Warner Bros. Discovery takes over from NBC and Tennis Channel as the exclusive U.S. broadcaster of Roland Garros.
Their multi-platform strategy ensures fans can catch every moment-whether they’re tuning in on cable or streaming on-the-go.
Where to watch the 2025 French Open in the United States
TNT, TBS, and truTV: The core TV broadcast of Roland Garros 2025 will be spread across these Turner Sports networks, marking the first year of a 10-year deal.
Each day’s coverage begins at 5 a.m. ET, with Court Philippe-Chatrier’s featured singles match airing daily at 2:15 p.m. ET from May 25 through June 6. Expect live matches, studio analysis, and on-site interviews from three dedicated TV studios, including one in the Jardin des Mousquetaires at the heart of the stadium.
Max (formerly HBO Max): Cord-cutters won’t miss a beat. All matches will be streamable live on the Max app, where users can watch up to four matches simultaneously using the app’s multi-view feature.
This includes early-round matchups, daily highlights, and full semifinal and final coverage.
Bleacher Report and House of Highlights: For fans who follow tennis on social media, expect highlights, player interviews, and behind-the-scenes content across Warner Bros. Discovery’s digital platforms.
What to watch: Key dates, defending champions, and contenders
The action begins Sunday, May 25, with the first round of the main draw. From that point forward, the tournament will unfold across two weeks on the red clay of Stade Roland Garros.
- Saturday, June 7: The women’s singles final will crown a new champion-or potentially see Iga Swiatek lift the trophy for a fourth straight year.
- Sunday, June 8: The men’s singles final will follow, closing out the tournament with the sport’s biggest stars battling for glory.
Carlos Alcaraz returns to defend his title after a dramatic five-set comeback over Alexander Zverev in last year’s final. That victory made the 21-year-old Spaniard the youngest player ever to win Grand Slams on all three surfaces (hard, clay, grass).
On the women’s side, Iga Swiatek seeks a fourth consecutive Roland Garros crown after dismantling Jasmine Paolini in the 2024 final, 6-2, 6-1. At just 23, Swiatek already owns four French Open titles, underlining her dominance on clay.
Among the top contenders this year:
- Men’s Top 3: Jannik Sinner (1), Carlos Alcaraz (2), Alexander Zverev (3)
- Women’s Top 3: Aryna Sabalenka (1), Coco Gauff (2), Jessica Pegula (3)
Keep an eye on rising stars like Jack Draper, Mirra Andreeva, and Emma Navarro, who will look to make their mark in Paris.
Global reach, local access
While France Télévisions and Prime Video will continue to carry the event domestically, Roland Garros will be broadcast in over 220 territories worldwide via more than 170 media outlets.
From Eurosport in Europe to CCTV and iQiYi in China, and ESPN across Latin America, the French Open remains a truly global tennis showcase.
But for American fans, 2025 signals a new chapter-one where every forehand, drop shot, and tiebreaker will be easier than ever to watch, stream, and share, thanks to a broadcasting overhaul designed to match the intensity of the competition.
Whether you’re rooting for Swiatek to extend her dynasty or hoping for a new name on the men’s trophy, Roland Garros 2025 promises high drama-and now, high accessibility.
