French Open 2025: Men’s and Women’s seeds list and tracker

The 2025 French Open is underway but already some top seeds have fallen at Roland Garros.

On the men’s side, fourth seed and last year’s US Open semi-finalist Taylor Fritz is the highest-ranked casualty so far, but defeat for two-time finalist Casper Ruud was the bigger shock after the injury-hit Norwegian was defeated by Portugal’s Nuno Borges on Wednesday.

Daniil Medvedev, the 11th seed, is also out, losing in five sets to Cameron Norrie, though that was the second time in three years that the former US Open winner had gone out in the opening round at the Paris grand slam.

Ninth seed Emma Navarro is the biggest name to fall on the women’s side so far, failing to hold serve as she suffered a 6-0, 6-1 battering at the hands of Jessica Bouzas Maneiro in just 57 minutes in her first-round match.

The 2023 runner-up, Karolina Muchova, is also out, with the 14th seed falling to the American Alycia Parks. Follow the progress of the top players at Roland Garros with our seed tracker here:
