As the 2025 French Open gets underway today, we´ve brought our Grand Slam panellists together to discuss everything we can expect from the next two weeks at Roland Garros.

Can Alcaraz become the new King of Clay after Nadal´s retirement? Will Iga Swiatek win her 4th title in a row in Paris? With so many American men in the draw, will we see our first US Men´s Champion since Agassi in 1999?

Our panellists join Dan to chat through these questions, their picks for the title and dark horses to watch out for, plus much more in today´s episode.

Our Preview panel includes:-

• Denmark´s Davis Cup Captain and 2012 Wimbledon Mens Doubles Champion Freddie Nielsen.
• Sports broadcaster and former CNN anchor Candy Reid
• GB Coach Calvin Betton who is currently working with Henry Patten.
• Top tennis strength and conditioning coach and CTC legend Kieron Vorster
