2013 French Open

The 2013 French Open was the second Grand Slam of 2013. It was hosted by France; all matches were played at the Stade Roland Garros. It was the 112th edition and it was played on clay courts. It was held between May 26 and June 9.

This was the last Grand Slam for Jiroemon Kimura as he died three days after the closing ceremony.

Info
The defending champions in singles were Rafael Nadal for men and Maria Sharapova for women. Nadal successfully defended his title but Sharapova almost defended her title as she lost in the final to Serena Williams.

Junior tennis was for players under the age of 18 that didn't meet the Derby Dead Pool age requirements. Both Annika Beck and Kimmer Coppejans weren't allowed to defend their 2012 titles as both players were born in 1994.
