The 2013 French Open was a tennis tournament played on outdoor clay courts. It was the 117th edition of the French Open and the second Grand Slam event of the year. It took place at the Stade Roland Garros from 26 May to 9 June.[1] It consisted of events for professional players in singles, doubles and mixed doubles play. Junior and wheelchair players also took part in singles and doubles events.
Rafael Nadal was the three-time defending champion in the men's singles, and won the title to become the first man to win the same Grand Slam title eight times. Maria Sharapova was the defending champion in women's singles, but lost in the final to Serena Williams.
This championship was the third time in grand slam history that two multiple slam sets[broken anchor] were accomplished in two different disciplines, and that was Serena Williams in Women's singles, and her fellow countrymen Bob and Mike Bryan in Men's doubles. At the 1969 US Open, Rod Laver won his multiple slam set in Men's singles, and his fellow countryman Ken Rosewall did in Men's doubles. At the 2012 French Open, Mahesh Bhupathi won a multiple slam set in Mixed doubles, and Esther Vergeer won her multiple slam set in Women's Wheelchair Doubles.
In the women's singles final, it marked the first French Open since 1995 that the top two seeded players had played each other in the final, and the first time at any grand slam event since the 2004 Australian Open that the top two seeded players had played each other in a grand slam final.
