Roland-Garros — what it is and how it works

Format and competition system
A 128-player draw, best-of-five sets in the men's draw and best-of-three in the women's, over two weeks.
Honours and dominant teams
Rafael Nadal holds the record for titles in Paris by a margin unmatched at any other Grand Slam.
