French Open: How to watch women’s bracket, schedule, results & more

Geoff Burke-USA TODAY Sports

Iga Swiatek goes for three straight Roland-Garros titles and more in the women’s singles bracket at the French Open.

The second Grand Slam tennis event of the year, the 2024 French Open at Roland-Garros, gets underway on Sunday, May 26th. Defending women’s singles champion and world No. 1 Iga Swiatek is looking to repeat and earn her fourth title on the red clay in Paris, though she has a potentially tough draw ahead of her.

That draw could see her face fellow four-time Slam champion Naomi Osaka in the second round, a matchup that could see an early exit for the top-ranked Pole. They have split two previous meetings, and things don’t get considerably easier for Swiatek after that.

In addition to Osaka, 2021 champ Barbora Krejcikova could be waiting for Swiatek in the Round of 16, while No. 5 Marketa Vondrousova and No. 11 Danielle Collins potentially wait after that. No. 3 Coco Gauff is also drawn into Swiatek’s half of the bracket, though the American hasn’t had much luck against her, falling in both the quarterfinals in 2023 and the final in 2022 to Swiatek.

While Swiatek is the favorite and has been on a hot streak after winning clay court titles in Madrid and Rome, there are others to watch. No. 2 seed Aryna Sabalenka is playing some of the best tennis of her career, and was the runner-up at aforementioned Madrid and Rome.

There’s also a big first-round matchup between Americans Collins and Caroline Dolehide, and another first-round bout between Elina Svitolina and Karolina Pliskova that should be exciting. There’s plenty to watch for in what is a relatively open women’s draw.

You can find the entire women’s bracket below, followed by viewing information, the schedule of play, and as the tournament progresses: results.
