The Roland-Garros eSeries by Renault has unveiled its eight finalists, setting the stage for an electrifying showdown on May 24th. With an impressive turnout of 515,000 players from 221 countries competing in a staggering 9.5 million Tennis Clash matches, the tournament has proven itself to be one of the premier events in the eSports world. The finalists who have made it to the thrilling final stage are none other than reigning champion Alessandro Bianco, Hizir Balkanci, Anyndia Lestari, Omer Feder, Adjua Thembisa Boucher, Eugen Mosdir, Bartu Yildirim, and Samuel Sanin Ortiz. These top competitors are gearing up for a memorable battle at the Roland-Garros Tenniseum.

Adding to the excitement, this year's format introduces a dynamic team-based structure, where the eight finalists will be divided into two teams, each led by a tennis legend. Gilles Simon, a former ATP world Number 6 and a finalist from last year, will captain one team, while former Wimbledon Champion Marion Bartoli will lead the other. The teams will engage in a series of intense matches, with winners advancing to the Winner Bracket. However, the competition doesn't end there; eliminated players will have a second chance in the Loser Bracket, where teams dissolve, and only one player can emerge as the Roland-Garros eSeries champion.

To keep the audience engaged, the event will be hosted by Samuel Etienne, a well-known French personality and Twitch streamer with over 1 million followers. He will be joined by eSports expert Quento and former Tennis Clash number 1, Benny, also known as GP365. The tournament will be brought to life with a replica of the iconic Philippe-Chatrier court and custom outfits, maintaining the spirit of Roland-Garros. Esteemed French umpire Aurélie Tourte will officiate the matches, ensuring a series of exciting and fair contests.

The event will host 250 spectators in the auditorium and will be broadcast live on Samuel Etienne's Twitch channel and the Roland-Garros YouTube channel at 4pm CEST. Viewers can look forward to watching every match live and enjoying interactive segments with special guests, who will share passionate discussions and insights into the worlds of tennis and eTennis.
