Former champion Stan Wawrinka has been awarded a wildcard entry into the 2025 French Open men's singles draw.
In 2015, Wawrinka defeated Novak Djokovic in four sets to win the trophy, the second of his three Grand Slam titles.
Now aged 40, the Swiss player has dropped to 132nd in the ATP rankings.
He reached round two at Roland Garros in 2024, losing to Russia's Pavel Kotov, and hasn't reached the second week of a Grand Slam event since the 2020 Australian Open.
Frenchman Richard Gasquet, 38, who will retire after the tournament, has also received a wildcard for the main draw.
The 2025 French Open will run from 25 May to 8 June.
