There’s a substantial Australian presence at the French Open 2024 tennis Grand Slam, which will be played at the Roland Garros in Paris from May 26 to June 9.

A whopping nine Australian tennis players, led by world No. 11 Alex de Minaur, will be involved in the men’s singles main draw at the clay-court Grand Slam this year, making it the biggest Roland Garros contingent for the Aussies in the event since 1999.

As expected De Minaur is the highest-seeded Australian singles player in the tournament, at 11th. Alexei Popyrin, the 2017 Roland Garros boys’ singles champion, is also in the fray.

Two Australian women have qualified for the singles main draw for Roland Garros 2024. Daria Saville, ranked 84th in the tennis rankings, has been joined by wild card entry Ajla Tomljanovic.

The men’s doubles competition at the French Open will see seven Australians, including five former Grand Slam winners, take the court.

World No. 3 Matthew Ebden will partner India’s Rohan Bopanna and the second-seeded pair will be looking for their second Grand Slam title of the year after clinching the Australian Open together earlier this year.

No Australian has been able to land their hands on the French Open men’s doubles title since Todd Woodbridge and Mark Woodforde triumphed in 2000.

Max Purcell and Jordan Thompson are the only all-Aussie pair at this year’s French Open.

Carrying the Aussie hopes in women’s doubles will be world No. 7 Ellen Perez, who is set to partner Nicole Melichar-Martinez. The duo made the semi-finals last year and are the second seeds for this year’s tournament.

Alicia Molik was the last Australian women’s doubles champion at Roland Garros, winning the 2007 title with Italy’s Mara Santangelo.

The mixed doubles draw for Roland Garros 2024 isn’t out yet.
