​Four players from Romania were directly admitted to the main draw of the Roland Garros tournament, the second Grand Slam tournament of the year (May 28 – June 11).
Begu, Kirstea, Bohdan and Sig in the Roland Garros main draw
According to freelance journalist Daniel Radu, these are Iryna Begu (37 WTA), Sorana Kirstea (41 WTA), Ana Bohdan (57 WTA) and Patricia Sig (707 WTA, protected rating rule used).
Simona Halep, suspended for doping, will participate in Roland Garros only if she receives a wildcard from the organizers. Athletes who qualify will also enter the main draw.
The former WTA number one (2018 champion and 2014 and 2017 finalist) missed only the Grand Slam event in Paris in 2021 when she announced her defeat due to a calf injury.
