New eSports Team Format Unveiled at Roland-Garros eSeries 2025 in Tennis Clash

The excitement is palpable as the Roland-Garros eSeries returns in 2025, inviting players from across the globe to compete on the virtual clay courts of Tennis Clash. This year's tournament introduces a thrilling team-based format, featuring legendary tennis captains and a €5,000 prize pool that promises to elevate the competition to new heights.

Renault and Mastercard return as pivotal sponsors, enhancing the experience with official Roland-Garros 2025 outfits and the exclusive Renault 5 Roland-Garros string for character customization.

When Does It Start?

Mark your calendars! The Roland-Garros eSeries kicks off in March, with open qualifiers serving as the initial battleground for players to earn their spot in the finals. The qualifying stages are scheduled from March 6-11, March 20-25, and April 3-8, setting the stage for the elite contenders to emerge.

The top female players from the first two qualifiers will join the overall winners in the finals. The ultimate showdown will take place at the Roland-Garros Tenniseum Auditorium on May 24th, in front of a live audience, and the entire event will be streamed live on Twitch.

What’s New This Year?

The Roland-Garros eSeries 2025 brings a fresh twist with its new team-based format. Instead of individual play, finalists will be organized into teams, each led by a prominent figure in French tennis. The first confirmed captain is none other than Gilles Simon, former ATP world No. 6 and Davis Cup champion.

Simon, who has been a commentator for the eSeries since 2023 and competed in the Top 8 in 2024, will coach one of the teams. The identity of his rival captain remains a mystery, but organizers have hinted that it will be a Grand Slam winner.

Once the teams are finalized, the competition will intensify. The winning team from the first phase will advance to the winner’s side of the double-elimination bracket, while the losing team will start in the loser’s bracket.

Defending champion Alessandro ΔLEX Bianco is set to return, joined by the two Grand Tour finalists. With last year's impressive turnout of 548,000 participants from 215 territories, this year's event is poised to be even more competitive.

In celebration of Women’s Day, Tennis Clash is offering a trip to Paris for the top female and overall players. Download the game from the Google Play Store and prepare for the Roland-Garros eSeries 2025, as there's a wealth of exciting features to explore.
