2024 French Open – Men's singles
Updated: 11/19/2025, 3:36:50 PM Wikipedia source
Carlos Alcaraz defeated Alexander Zverev in the final, 6–3, 2–6, 5–7, 6–1, 6–2 to win the men's singles tennis title at the 2024 French Open. It was his first French Open title and third major title overall. At 21 years and 21 days old, Alcaraz was the youngest man to win major titles on three different surfaces, having won the 2022 US Open on hardcourts and 2023 Wimbledon Championships on grass. He was the first French Open champion outside of Rafael Nadal or Novak Djokovic since Stan Wawrinka in 2015. Zverev was the first German to contest the final since Michael Stich in 1996. Djokovic was the defending champion, but withdrew from his quarterfinal match due to a knee injury. His third-round match against Lorenzo Musetti marked the latest finish in tournament history, ending at 3:07 a.m. local time. Jannik Sinner attained the world No. 1 singles ranking for the first time following the tournament, becoming the first Italian to claim a top singles spot. This marked the last major appearance of 14-time French Open champion and 22-time major champion Nadal; he lost to Zverev in the first round, ending his storied career at the French Open with a 112–4 win-loss record. It was the only time in Nadal's career he lost in the first round at the French Open. Nadal was unseeded at a major for the first time since the 2005 Australian Open while using a protected ranking to enter the main draw. This tournament also marked the final major singles appearance of former world No. 1, two-time Olympic gold medalist, 2016 finalist and three-time major champion Andy Murray; he lost to Stan Wawrinka in the first round.
