The 2014 French Open was the 113th edition
of the French Open and the second Grand Slam event of the year. It took place
at the Stade Roland Garros from 25 May to 8 June. It consisted of events for
professional players in singles, doubles and mixed doubles play. Junior and
wheelchair players also took part in singles and doubles events.
Rafael Nadal was the four-time defending
champion in the men's singles and defeated Novak Djokovic in the men's singles
final to win his 9th French Open title and his 14th Grand Slam title. The
victory made Nadal the first tennis player to have won 5 consecutive French
Open titles.
Serena Williams was the defending women's
singles champion. Williams failed to defend her title, losing to Garbiñe
Muguruza in the second round. This was first time that both singles winners of
the Australian Open (Li Na and Stanislas Wawrinka) lost in the first round of
the French Open. Also, for the first time at any Grand Slam event in the Open
era, the top three women's seeds (Williams, Li, and Agnieszka Radwańska) all
failed to reach the fourth round.
