Maria Sharapova has won here two of the last three years – she’s won 20 of her last 21 matches here.

Simona Halep reached the first Grand Slam final of her blossoming career at Roland Garros a year ago.

It’s a very special place for Ana Ivanovic too – she won her first Grand Slam title here in 2008.

That year, Carla Suárez Navarro made the quarterfinals in her first main draw at a Grand Slam event.

Alizé Cornet has a lot of home support at the French Open – she’s the No.1 player in France, after all.

Alla Kudryavtseva and Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova also headed to the Eiffel Tower for the player party.

WTA Rising Star Monica Puig loves France – she won her first WTA title in Strasbourg a year ago.

Another Frenchwoman, Alizé Lim, at the party. Lim faced Serena Williams first round here last year.

And two more Frenchwomen, Mathilde Johansson and Pauline Parmentier, looking sharp at the Eiffel Tower.
