💨 Abstract
The 2025 French Open is a unique major as it is the only tennis Grand Slam that will still use traditional line judges rather than electronic line-calling. This decision has garnered criticism from players like Novak Djokovic, who prefer the accuracy, time-saving, and reduced human involvement of technological solutions. Djokovic acknowledges the tradition but leans towards technology in line-calling. Other Grand Slam tournaments have adopted electronic systems, yet the French federation stands firm on keeping human line judges.
