History of the French Open
The history of the French Open began in 1891 when it was held exclusively for local tennis players. In 1925, it became an international event, and in 1928, it moved to the stadium now known as Roland Garros, named after a French aviator.
This tournament is renowned for its clay courts, which slow down the ball, extending rallies and demanding exceptional endurance and tactical skill from players.
