Ways to watch the French Open 2025 live for free in the US

May 25, 2025

The 2025 French Open is finally here! After kicking off the Grand Slam season with the Australian Open back in January, it’s time for this esteemed clay court tournament.

Last year’s champions, Carlos Alcaraz for the men’s and Iga Swiatek for the women’s categories, are back to defend their titles. However, Jannik Sinner and Aryna Sabalenka are notably absent this time.

Alcaraz comes into the tournament fresh off a victory in Italy and is considered one of the favorites, along with Sinner; it’s interesting, really, since they might only face each other in the finals if things play out that way.

The action kicks off at 5 AM ET with the first round matches. Thanks to the time difference between the US and Paris, viewers in the States can catch the matches live starting at that time most days.

This year, Max will be the primary streaming platform for the French Open. It will feature all the matches, while TNT and TRUTV will also provide daily coverage.

French Open Schedule: Key Dates

The tournament officially begins on May 25th and wraps up on June 8th.

Location of the French Open 2025

The event is held annually on the clay courts of Stade Roland Garros in Paris, France.

Viewing Options in the US

Max doesn’t offer a free trial, so if you’re looking to watch the tournament, you might want to consider a live TV streaming service. Sling TV is a great value with some decent offers; for instance, opting for the Blue Plan and adding the Max option lets you catch all the action.

Interestingly, if you subscribe to Max through Sling, you get a 50% discount in the first month and then $5 off every following month.

DirectV also comes highly recommended and offers a 5-day free trial.
