Loïs Boisson is a French professional tennis player, born on 16 May 2003 in Dijon. At 1.75 m she plays a physical game built around a heavy topspin forehand that is especially dangerous on clay, the surface of her sensational breakthrough.

Her name exploded at Roland-Garros 2025: handed a wildcard and ranked just No. 361, she reached the semi-finals on her very first Grand Slam main draw, becoming the first wildcard in the Open era to do so. On the way she knocked out three seeds, including Jessica Pegula and Mirra Andreeva, in front of her home crowd.

Propelled to a career-high of No. 34 in early 2026, she established herself as France’s No. 1. After clay, the challenge for Boisson is to carry that momentum onto other surfaces, one of the most closely followed storylines in French tennis.
