The first edition of the “Roland-Garros eSeries by BNP Paribas” e-gaming tournament, launched by the FFT and BNP Paribas, will conclude Friday 25 May at Roland Garros with a big finale.
The final of this brand new competition will be contested by the eight winners of the qualifying rounds, which were held between March and May in Belgium, Brazil, China, Spain, France, Great Britain, India and Italy.
The competition will see the eight finalists play the new video game “Tennis World Tour”, published by Bigben and released on 22 May.
