In 2025, we celebrate 100 years of the French tennis championships, which became the French Open in 1925 and has been held at the Roland-Garros stadium since 1928.
Organised by the French Tennis Federation, Roland-Garros is the only Grand Slam tournament to be played on clay, one of the oldest and noblest surfaces in the history of tennis. Modernized over the years with innovative infrastructure, the stadium combines tradition and modernity.
Every year, its vibrant atmosphere attracts hundreds of thousands of spectators from all over the world, as well as millions of television viewers, making the tournament one of the world's leading sporting events. One hundred years after taking on its international dimension, Roland-Garros remains a symbol of history and passion for tennis, with an eye always turned towards the future and excellence.
The obverse of the coin features the Cours Phillipe-Chatrier, an emblematic feature of the Roland Garros site. At the top of the coin are the letters ‘RG’ for Roland Garros. On the right, the Saint André cross is framed by the baselines of a tennis court. At the top right is the Moucharabieh of Roland-Garros, a motif found on one of the corners of the Philippe-Chatrier court.
One of these coins was used for the "coin toss" at the 2025 tournament
