The doubles tournament will begin on Monday at the Paris La Défense Arena: check out all the teams entered in the draw before they hit the court. 

Another French favourite is getting ready to take his final bow. For his last tournament, in a brand-new venue, Nicolas Mahut – who won the doubles tournament in 2019 and finished runner-up four times – has teamed up with Bulgaria’s Grigor Dimitrov (wild card). In the first round, they will play Hugo Nys and Édouard Roger-Vasselin, another French player, who won the doubles in 2023 alongside Santiago Gonzalez.

Another duo who benefitted from a wild card from the French Tennis Federation, Pierre-Hugues Herbert and Quentin Halys will regale the Parisian spectators with a 100% French encounter against Sadio Doumbia and Fabien Reboul, the runners-up at the Masters 1000 in Rome this season. The winners of this match will come up against the tournament’s No.1 seeds Marcelo Arevalo and Mate Pavic in the second round, who have already won threeMasters 1000 in 2025 (including two on hard court, at Indian Wells and in Miami).

Brimming with confidence after their title in Almaty, Théo Arribagé and Albano Olivetti have a tough challenge ahead in their debut match against Joe Salisbury and Neal Skupski (No. 6), who reached the final at two Grand Slams this year (US Open and Roland-Garros).

Meanwhile, defending champion Nikola Mektic has changed partners for this new edition of the Parisian tournament. Now paired with American player Austin Krajicek, he will face Sander Arends and Luke Johnson in the first round.
