It’s time for the second grand slam of the year! The 2025 French Open kicks off at Roland-Garros this Sunday, May 25. The defending champions headed into this year’s tennis tournament are Carlos Alcaraz and Iga Swiatek — though notably neither player occupies the top-seeded spot in their respective singles tournaments. Jannik Sinner is the No. 1 seed in the men’s tournament, Aryna Sabalenka is the No. 1 seed in the women’s. American tennis star Coco Gauff is the No. 2 seed on the women’s side. In the U.S., coverage of this year’s tournament will air on TNT and truTV, and every match will air on HBO Max.

How to watch the French Open with a VPN:​

If you want to catch every match of the French Open and don’t currently subscribe to HBO Max or a live TV streaming service, in Australia a majority of the action is streaming free with ads on 9Now, and in Austria it's all streaming free with ads on ServusTV.

Don’t live in either of those places? Don't worry, you can still stream like you do with the help of a VPN. A VPN (virtual private network) helps protect your data, can mask your IP address and is perhaps most popular for being especially useful in the age of streaming. Whether you’re looking to watch Friends on Netflix (which left the U.S. version of the streamer back in 2019) or tune in to next F1 race without a cable package, a VPN can help you out. Looking to try a VPN for the first time? This guide breaks down the best VPN options for every kind of user.
