The 361st-ranked player in the world, Frenchwoman **Lua Boisson**, has made history by becoming the lowest-ranked tennis player since 1985 to reach the quarterfinals of the French Open. On June 2, Boisson achieved a stunning victory over America’s third seed **Jessica Pegula** in the fourth round of the Roland Garros, winning with a score of 3-6, 6-4, 6-4.
Lua Boisson is competing at the 2025 French Open thanks to a wild card granted to her by the tournament organizers. She is only 22 years old.
Moreover, she has become the lowest-ranked player to reach the quarterfinals in a Grand Slam event since 2017. That year, Estonia’s Kaia Kanepi, ranked 418th, made it to the quarterfinals of the US Open.
