Key Matches Set for Wednesday at 2025 French Open

PARIS, France — The 2025 French Open continues on Wednesday, featuring several key matches in the second round. Notable players include second seed Carlos Alcaraz, who is set to face off against Fabian Marozsan, and No. 12 seed Tommy Paul, who will play against Marton Fucsovics.

Alcaraz, the defending champion and four-time Grand Slam winner, is heavily favored against Marozsan, a surprising upset winner against him in Rome in 2023. Despite Marozsan’s prior success, analysts believe Alcaraz’s current form will lead him to win easily.

Tommy Paul comes into his match with Marton Fucsovics on a high note, having reached the semifinals in Rome last week. Although he has historically struggled at the French Open, reaching the third round only once in his career, Paul is currently 12th in the ATP rankings, and expectations are higher this year.

Fucsovics, who has faced Paul three times before but has not won in their last two meetings, remains a formidable opponent. Despite being viewed by bookmakers as the underdog, Fucsovics has proven his strength on clay and aims to capitalize on his experience.

In another interesting match, Jenson Brooksby will compete against Sebastian Korda. Brooksby seeks to regain momentum after recent struggles, while Korda aims for consistent performance following his recent victories.

All matches on Wednesday begin around 5 a.m. ET, with the final match of the day starting at 8:15 p.m. ET. Sports fans are eager to see if upsets will happen or if the favored players will live up to expectations.
