Bad luck! Zhang Shuai played the top seed in the first round of women's doubles

The 2025 French Open tennis tournament has started the singles main competition, and the doubles draw table has also been released.

Despite the relatively sizable number of players, only the "Straits Pair" Jiang Xinyu/Wu Fangxian are seeded among the seven pairs, and the two are the No. 10 seeds in the tournament against Osorio/Parkes in the first round, and the two have performed well in singles, with Parkes having won the singles title in Lyon in 2023.

The Straits Pair showed good form at the start of the year, winning the Women's Doubles titles in Auckland and Hobart, and reaching the Women's Doubles final in Doha.

In this year's clay warm-up tournament, the pair lost to third seeds Paulini/Errani in the first round in Rome, and moved to Strasbourg, beating Kessler/Zarazuha and Dolehider/Stolaar to reach the semi-finals before losing to Guo Hanyu/Melichar in the semi-finals.

Veteran Xu Yifan partnered with Ukrainian player Garenina at this year's French Open, and the first round opponent was [14] Babos/Stefani, Xu Yifan's partner has been changing this year, from Yang Zhaoxuan to Wu Fangxian, from Kichenok to Ninomiya Makoto, Zheng Saisai and Buksa have partnered with her, but the combination effect is not ideal.

In the first round of the French Open, it will be quite difficult for Xu Yifan and Garenina to get through the doubles star Babos/Stefani.

Wang Xinyu/Zheng Saisai continued to play together at this year's French Open, and their first-round opponents were also seeded pairs - [11] Kromaceva/Stolar.

Wang Xinyu and Zheng Saisai participated in Madrid, Rome and Strasbourg in this year's clay warm-up tournaments, all of which stopped in the first round, losing to Sigmund/Maya, Zhan Haoqing/Volmos, and Dabrowski/Lutliff respectively.

Veteran Zhang Shuai temporarily teamed up with Australia's Gadeki amid Mladenovic's retirement, and the pair drew top seeds Siniakova/Townsend in the first round, and the signing was quite bad.

It is worth mentioning that Gadeki also had poor singles luck, and his opponent in the first round was the tournament's No. 2 seed Gauff. If Zhang Shuai/Gadeji want to win against the number one pair, they will have to show better tacit cooperation and form than before, which is undoubtedly more difficult for the two who formed the team on the impromptu basis.

In addition, Guo Hanyu/Shibahara Eina will face Berech/Qatar in the first round, Tang Qianhui and Makoto Ninomiya will face Leshemia/Chen Xia Lini in the first round, and Yuan Yue/Sun Lulu will face Sherif/Blinkova in the first round.

Looking forward to more victories in this French Open!(Source: Tennis House Author: Barbie)
