French Open 2025 quarter finals: Sinner, Alcaraz on track to final as Swiatek chases history

The 2025 French Open has officially reached its critical quarter-finals phase, with all eyes on the high-stakes matchups set to unfold at Roland-Garros. In the men's singles draw, anticipation builds for a potential blockbuster final between the top two rivals, world number one Jannik Sinner and the resurgent defending champion Carlos Alcaraz, both dominating their paths through the tournament. Another captivating battle looms between the last two Olympic gold medalists on clay: Novak Djokovic, who triumphed at Paris 2024, and Alexander Zverev, the Tokyo 2020 champion. Djokovic notably made history in his Round of 16 win against Cameron Norrie, securing his 100th Roland-Garros victory—a feat only achieved by Rafael Nadal in the men's game.

This sets up a chance for Djokovic to reach his 13th French Open semi-final, with a shot at redemption against Zverev following their last major meeting. The men's draw also features impressive underdog runs, with Kazakhstan’s Alexander Bublik making his first singles major quarter-final after eliminating two top-10 players, and USA’s Frances Tiafoe reaching his first Masters 1000 or Grand Slam quarter-final of 2025, preparing to face Italian eighth seed Lorenzo Musetti.

On the women's side, defending champion Iga Swiatek continues her formidable quest for a fourth consecutive Roland-Garros title, reminding everyone of her prowess with a gritty three-set comeback against Elena Rybakina. The Olympic bronze medallist has found her rhythm and confidence on her preferred clay courts, with a compelling match against fellow Olympic medallist Elina Svitolina up next.

The tournament also guarantees an American woman in the semi-finals, as Australian Open champion Madison Keys faces world number two Coco Gauff in what will be their sixth career encounter. Furthermore, 2024 finalist Mirra Andreeva, the 18-year-old sixth seed, has quietly advanced, overcoming two higher seeds, and now faces France's breakthrough star and last home hope, Loïs Boisson, in front of what promises to be a fervent home crowd.
