A total prize fund of £53.7million is on offer at the clay court event including £2.44million for the men’s and women’s singles champions.

Last year’s French Open saw Carlos Alcaraz win the men’s singles title for a second time following a successful defence.

However, the Spaniard will not be able to secure a third straight victory this year as he has withdrawn from the tournament with a wrist injury.

Meanwhile, Coco Gauff secured the women’s singles title, the second Grand Slam of her career.
