In a dramatic French Open final, Coco Gauff defeated Aryna Sabalenka, who competed without the Belarusian flag due to a ban. This ban has been in place for the past two years and shows the federation's stance on the Russia and Ukraine war.

Coco Gauff, the No. 2 seed, became the first American woman to win the French Open singles title since Serena Williams in 2015.

The absence of Belarusian flag next to Aryna Sabalenka's name at the French Open has drawn attention. Instead, a plain blue rectangle appeared in its place.
