Glenn Joanna overcame the turbulence of losing three games in a row in the opening round, forced the battle line to tie seven, relied on four consecutive points to lay the foundation for the victory, and successfully closed the door with consecutive breaks at the end of the second set, achieving the first career Grand Slam qualifying victory, and the first Chinese Taipei player to win the French Open women's singles since Liang Enshuo in 2021.

World No. 177 Glen Joanna will next face 19-year-old Croatian teenager Madchenko, a former Australian Open junior women's singles champion who reached the women's singles final at the WTA Swiss Open last year.

On the other hand, Chinese Taipei's Wu Fangxian and Chinese player Jiang Xinyu defeated Kessler (USA)/Zarazuaya (Mexico) 6-3 at the Strasbourg Women's Open 2025. Zhan Haoqing and Japan's Shuko Aoyama narrowly defeated Kolafukiko (USA)/Pérez (Australia) 2:6, 6:4, 12:10 to advance to the Women's Doubles quarterfinals.
