Top tennis players slam Roland Garros prize money, citing a shrinking share of tournament revenue

A group of top tennis players, including Novak Djokovic and Coco Gauff, have publicly criticized the prize money offered at Roland Garros, arguing that players are receiving a shrinking share of the tournament's overall revenue. The French Open clay-court Grand Slam is scheduled to begin later in May 2026 in Paris. The complaints come amid ongoing tensions between players and Grand Slam organizers over the distribution of tournament earnings.
