The Roland-Garros eSeries by Renault has officially unveiled its eight finalists, setting the stage for an epic showdown. Reigning champion Alessandro Bianco will defend his title against seven other formidable competitors on May 24th at the Roland-Garros Tenniseum. This year's lineup includes Alessandro Bianco, Hizir Balkanci, Anyndia Lestari, Omer Feder, Adjua Thembisa Boucher, Eugen Mosdir, Bartu Yildirim, and Samuel Sanin Ortiz.
With over 515,000 players from 221 countries participating in 9.5 million Tennis Clash matches, the Roland-Garros eSeries by Renault has solidified its status as a premier eSports tournament. The excitement continues as the finalists will be divided into two teams, each led by a tennis legend. Gilles Simon, former ATP world Number 6 and a finalist from last year, will captain one team, while former Wimbledon Champion Marion Bartoli will helm the other.

The competition format is set to be thrilling. The teams will engage in a series of matches, with the winners advancing to the Winner Bracket. Meanwhile, those eliminated will have a second chance in the Loser Bracket, where individual competition takes over, and only one player will emerge as the Roland-Garros eSeries champion.

Adding to the excitement, the event will be hosted by Samuel Etienne, a well-known French personality and Twitch streamer with over 1 million followers. He will be joined by esports expert Quento and former Tennis Clash number 1, Benny, also known as GP365. The tournament will be brought to life with a replica of the iconic Philippe-Chatrier court and custom outfits, all under the watchful eye of esteemed French umpire Aurélie Tourte.
The event will accommodate 250 spectators at the auditorium and will be broadcast live on Samuel Etienne’s Twitch channel and the Roland-Garros YouTube channel starting at 4pm CEST. Viewers can look forward to watching every match, participating in interactive segments, and enjoying passionate discussions with special guests about the worlds of tennis and eTennis.
