French Open – Tennis Tournament
The French Open, is a major Grand Slam tennis tournament held during May and June each year. It is the major clay court tournament and boasts the largest worldwide audience for all tennis tournaments.
The clay courts make for a slow playing surface which means it is considered to be the most physically demanding tennis tournament in the world. Certain players specialize in this type of play and the result is that many renowned players (for example: Roger Federer, Jimmy Conners and Pete Sampras) have never won this grand slam tournament.
The French Open Tennis Tournament is held each year in the Stade de Roland Garros in Paris France.
