Jannik Sinner, the Italian tennis player and world number 1, suffered a huge surprise at Roland Garros, being eliminated in the second round on May 28, 2026. Sinner, a major favorite of the tournament, was defeated by the Argentine Juan Manuel Cerundolo, ranked 56th in the ATP, in a dramatic match that ended with a score of 6-3, 6-2, 5-7, 1-6, 1-6.

Although he won the first two sets and led 5-1 in the third set, Sinner lost the initiative, dropping the next three sets. In the previous round, Sinner had qualified without problems, defeating the Frenchman Clement Tabur.
