Will an Italian reach the French Open men's final? 3 got to the quarterfinals.

Both Flavio Cobolli and Matteo Arnaldi advanced to the men's semifinals at the 2026 French Open at Roland Garros in Paris, guaranteeing that an Italian will contest the men's final for the first time in the Open Era. Cobolli, the 10th seed, and Arnaldi, unseeded at world No. 104, each won their respective quarterfinal matches on June 4, setting up an all-Italian semifinal scheduled for June 5.

Because both remaining Italians are drawn on the same half of the bracket, one of them is guaranteed a berth in Saturday's final regardless of the semifinal result. Germany's Alexander Zverev and Czech player Jakub Mensik play the second semifinal on the other half of the draw. The development ensures a first-time Grand Slam champion: none of the four remaining players has previously won a major.

Cobolli and Arnaldi's run extended a strong period for Italian men's tennis, which has consistently placed multiple players inside the top 50 over the past several years. The country's depth in clay-court tennis was on full display at Roland Garros throughout the fortnight, with three Italian players reaching the quarterfinals before two progressed to the last four.
