Mexican Rodrigo Pacheco is out of Roland Garros 2025

Mexican tennis player Rodrigo Pacheco was eliminated from the 2025 Roland Garros after losing in the first round of qualifying.

Pacheco , currently ranked 230th in the ATP rankings , qualified after Japanese Sho Shimabukuro withdrew.

To enter the main draw of 128 players , tennis players must overcome three rounds in this preliminary stage.

This setback comes after the Mexican surprised everyone at the Mexican Open by reaching the quarterfinals , one of his best recent performances.

Although he failed to advance in Paris this time, Pacheco already knows what it's like to triumph at Roland Garros : in 2023 he was crowned junior doubles champion alongside Russian Yaroslav Demin .

Roland Garros is the name given to the French Open , which was first held in 1891 and is now in its 129th edition . Since 1925 ( 94 editions since then ) it has been considered a Grand Slam tournament.

Roland Garros is the second tournament of this magnitude on the calendar and the only one played on clay.

The tennis season includes four Grand Slam tournaments , in chronological order: Australian Open, Roland Garros, Wimbledon, and US Open .
