FRENCH OPEN action has returned to the big screens for 2025 – and the winners will receive a huge prize pot for their troubles!
Spanish sensation Carlos Alcaraz battled through a gruelling five-set thriller before beating German icon Alexander Zverev to lift last year’s Men’s crown.
But Iga Swiatek’s journey to success in the 2024 Women’s final was a lot more straight forward as she comfortably beat Italian Jasmine Paolini in straight sets.
However, one thing the winning pair had in common is that they took home a staggering amount of money to go with their titles.
And there is even more money up for grabs at the second Grand Slam of the season.

The total prize pot for the 2025 French Open is €56,352,000 (£43.3 million).
