Loïs Boisson: From Monaco Memories to Roland-Garros History

Loïs Boisson: From Monaco Memories to Roland-Garros History

Loïs Boisson has just made history at Roland-Garros, becoming the first woman in the Open Era to reach the semi-finals as a wildcard. A stunning achievement for the young French player — and a proud moment for those who witnessed her early steps.

Back in 2016, during the IC Junior Finals hosted in Monaco, Loïs was part of a Côte d’Azur team invited to represent the host region. As Monaco did not have a national team, the IC of Monaco, with approval from the IC Council, welcomed young French talents from the neighbouring league. Among them was a quiet, determined girl who already showed promise: Loïs Boisson.

To see her now, years later, writing her name into the history books at Roland-Garros, is both heartwarming and inspiring. Her journey from junior IC events to the final four in Paris is a reminder of how international tennis friendships and opportunities can help nurture the champions of tomorrow.

A moment of pride for French tennis — and for the IC family.
