French wildcard Lois Boisson, 22, was the Cinderella story of the 2025 French Open. She defeated Jessica Pegula and Mirra Andreeva before losing in the semifinals to eventual Roland Garros champion Coco Gauff.
Boisson’s life has changed as a result of her amazing French Open finish. She catapulted up the rankings from #361 to #65. Boisson also earned more money from her French Open success than in her entire career prior to Paris. While many assumed the success, notoreity, and ratings climb would enable Boisson to gain automatic entry into the Wimbledon draw, that is not necessarily true.
