Rolex and Tennis - Roland-Garros

To me, the phrase on [Court] Philippe-Chatrier perfectly sums up my Roland-Garros last year and, overall, I think this tournament requires you to be the most tenacious out of all the Grand Slams.

A complex built for the future

After the completion of the 2018 championship, an overhaul of the Roland-Garros complex was undertaken to showcase the splendour of this Grand Slam® tournament. The seating capacity of the main arena, Court Philippe-Chatrier, has been increased to more than 15,000. It has also been fitted with a retractable roof so that players and spectators are no longer subjected to the whims of the weather. Since 2021, matches have been played at night under lights, giving as many people as possible the chance to experience the thrill of these absorbing contests.

Since 2019, Rolex has been the Premium Partner and Official Timekeeper of Roland‑Garros.

Rising to glory on the Parisian ochre

To triumph on the clay of Roland-Garros – the season’s second Grand Slam® tennis tournament – requires exceptional skill, athleticism and endurance. Only the most accomplished prevail here. Among them, Rod Laver, a two-time winner in his calendar Grand Slam® years, Chris Evert, with a record seven women’s singles crowns, and fellow legend Björn Borg, who won six men’s titles. More recently, other Rolex Testimonees have shone on the Parisian ochre, including Roger Federer, Carlos Alcaraz, Coco Gauff and Iga Świątek.
