In 2025, the main theme of the tournament will be the battle for the world number one spot between Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner, who have already faced each other in several finals this year. Alcaraz, who has won 39 of his last 41 matches, and Sinner, who also boasts impressive results, will be the primary contenders for the title.

Among the women, Aryna Sabalenka, the reigning champion, aims to win her first title at the Grand Slam tournaments this year. She has a 67% win rate in 80 matches, but she will need to overcome strong opponents, such as Iga Swiatek and Coco Gauff, who are also contenders for the title.

It is essential to note that this year, participation in mixed doubles has already generated significant interest, and many players believe that other tournaments will likely follow the example of the US Open Championship.
