Paris 2024 Olympic Tennis bringing back the red clay to the scene. The tennis event will be played on clay courts for the first time since the Olympics in Barcelona in 1992.

Roland Garros will play host to 2024’s Olympic Tennis, so what are you waiting for? Grab your Roland Garros 2024 tickets and cheer on your favorite tennis megastars.

The Olympic Summer Games for 2024 will feature the return of Olympic Tennis to the red clay court.

What makes this special is the natural and slippery surface of the clay court, which adds a new flavor to the most physically demanding sport in the world. Out of the last eight Olympic Games, seven of those have been played on hard surfaces, with the last clay-court Olympic Tennis being played in Barcelona in 1992.

Roland Garros is the home of the evergreen French Open. It’s a special occasion for the French people as their Roland Garros will be hosting 2024’s Olympic Tennis. It will be only the second time that a Tennis major will be played at the Olympics since its return as a medal sport in 1988.

The only other time a Grand Slam Major was played in the Olympic Games was at Wimbledon for the London 2012 Olympics.

A Guide To Book Roland Garros 2024 Tickets

There are plenty of options for you to book your Roland Garros 2024 tickets. French Open tickets are simple and easy to grab, especially when compared to other Grand Slam tickets, such as Wimbledon. Let’s dive into how and when to obtain Roland Garros 2024 tickets.

The French Open is regarded as the world’s second-biggest grand slam tennis tournament. Its importance has reached more heights since it was part of the Olympic Summer Games this time around. The tickets for this grand slam event will be available from March 15 onwards.

Booking a place to witness the French Open 2024 live in Stade Roland Garros is a rather easy process, but it requires you to be aware of the booking process. It requires you to be active as fans will be eager to watch their favorite stars, such as Rafael Nadal and Novak Djokovic, in person.

To avoid the hassle and risk of being scammed, booking the Roland Garros 2024 tickets through the official website of the French Open is recommended.

A simple guide to booking a ticket is given below:

Create an Account

The first step is to create an account on the official website now so that when tickets go live, you don’t waste your time creating an account rather than booking a ticket. Simply click on the signup button and fill in the necessary details. It is advisable to use a computer or laptop while account creation or booking a ticket, as there might be interface issues with mobile phones.

Booking Roland Garros 2024 Tickets

The next step is to log in to your account when the Roland Garros 2024 tickets go live on March 15 and select the seat with the full name of the Ticket holder. The ticket can then be downloaded from the official website on which you created an account.

Remember to bring your identity card for photo verification along with the ticket as you enter the stadium, as the name on the ticket and your identification card will be checked at the entry gate.

Secondary Ticket Market – Viable alternative

For those of you fans who cannot get the tickets from the official ticket places, do not lose hope. Secondary ticket markets are there to provide you with the original tickets for the French Open 2024. These tickets wish to be resold after their first-hand purchase from the primary official ticket marketplace.

Seatsnet is one of those leading marketplaces that serve to provide tickets to those who are unable to take them from the official marketplace. It also allows the users to sell their original tickets on the secondary marketplace.

Price fluctuation is a key aspect of secondary markets. The price can go down, or it can go up depending on the ease of ticket availability on the primary markets. But the biggest advantage is that you can rely on Seatsnet to provide you with the ticket for Roland Garros 2024.

Highly Anticipated Participants of The French Open

Whenever someone thinks of the terms Roland Garros, French Open, or clay court, there is an immediate association with Rafael Nadal. Rafael Nadal is the undisputed “King of clay court.”

One of the most amazing stories to cover this Olympic Tennis 2024 will be the retirement of Rafael Nadal. Yes, you heard it right. The Spanish great is set to retire from Tennis next year. It would be a fitting fairy tale ending for the great if he could manage to snag another title to his name on a surface in which he literally made his own yard.

It’s not certain that Paris 2024 will be the last tournament, as he said it will be difficult to predict any future situation, but it depends on how well his body holds up. He further added that he rates the Olympic Games as a competition where he would love to participate, but it’s not confirmed that Roland Garros 2024 will be his last.

King of Clay crashed out in the second round of the Australian Open 2023, and since then, he has been looking to make a grand comeback in 2024. He has already grabbed gold in the Olympics before at a singles event at the 2008 Olympics and a gold in doubles at the 2016 Olympics.

Although the attention and spotlight will be on Rafael Nadal, don’t rule out another Spaniard, Carlos Alcarez. Carlos Alcarez, having attained the world’s No. 1 ranking in Tennis, has taken the game of Tennis by storm.

Carlos reached the semis of this season’s French Open, so make no mistake in taking the Spaniard lightly as he would be an equal favorite to win this time, if not The Favourite. He also pointed out his dream to be in the doubles event at the Olympic Games and partner with Rafael Nadal.

With Rafael Nadal set to retire any time in 2024, it will be interesting to see the passing of the torch from one Spaniard to another. EXCITING!!

It would be an injustice not to mention Tennis’ all-time top record holder of major singles titles, Serbia’s Novak Djokovic. It is a shocker that Novak Djokovic has not been on the podium to get a medal ever since his bronze medal in the 2008 Olympics. It is high time that Novak Djokovic stamps his authority in the Olympic Games as well.

So plan your itinerary, get ready to grab your tickets, and join us for PARIS 2024.
