French Open 2026 result: Katie Boulter’s exit means there are no British players left in the singles

Katie Boulter ended British interest in singles competition at the French Open with a decisive set loss to 28th seed Anastasia Potapova.

Francesca Jones also lost in the second round to Emma Raducanu, Cameron Norrie, Jacob Fearnley and Toby Samuel in the first round.

Boulter, who was targeting his first appearance in the third round at Roland Garros, came out on top of a sloppy opening set that included seven breaks.

However, where Potapova found her rhythm on serve, Bolter was broken twice more in each set as the Russian-born Austrian won 5-7 6-4 6-2.

Potapova, who began her clay-court swing outside the top 90 before rising to world No. 30, will face defending champion Coco Goff in round three as she bids to reach the second week of a major for the second time in her career.
