Roland Garros 2025: How much prize money will be distributed in French Open?

The iconic clay courts of Roland Garros are ready to host the 124th edition of the tournament, the second Grand Slam of the tennis season. With preliminary rounds already underway, the main draw competition is scheduled to run from May 25 to June 8. This year's event promises an unprecedented financial reward for its participants, with a total prize money pool of €56,352,000, marking the largest payout in the tournament's history.

In a commitment to equality, Roland Garros continues to distribute identical prize money across both the men's and women's draws. The champions in Paris will each receive a substantial €2,550,000, an increase from €2,400,000 in 2024. Runners-up will also see an uplift in their earnings, taking home €1,275,000, up from €1,200,000 last year.

Even players exiting in the first round will benefit from an increase, with prize money rising from €73,000 to €78,000. For those competing in the qualifying rounds, the payouts are set at €21,000 for first-round losers, €29,500 for second-round losers, and €43,000 for third-round losers.

Beyond the lucrative financial incentives, Roland Garros also offers significant ranking points, crucial for players aiming to climb or maintain their positions in the global standings. As a Grand Slam, it awards the highest number of points on the circuit. Both the men's and women's singles champions will earn a substantial 2,000 points. The finalists will receive 1,300 points, while semi-finalists are awarded 800 points:

The field is packed with talent eager to claim the coveted Suzanne Lenglen Cup or the Coupe des Mousquetaires. On the men's side, Carlos Alcaraz will be defending his 2024 crown. Jannik Sinner, returning after a three-month period with the World Anti-Doping Agency that allowed him to play in Rome, will be looking to secure a title that has eluded him so far.

Other strong contenders include Alexander Zverev, Taylor Fritz, Jack Draper, and the formidable Novak Djokovic. In the women's draw, Iga Swiatek aims for an unprecedented fifth Roland Garros title, her fourth in a row. She will face fierce competition from Aryna Sabalenka, Coco Gauff, Jessica Pegula, and last year's finalist, Jasmine Paolini, all vying for the clay-court crown.
