French Open Bans Alcohol in Stands to Curb Fan Misbehavior

Tournament director Amélie Mauresmo enforces new rules following complaints about unruly spectators, aiming to maintain decorum at Roland Garros.

David Goffin and Iga Swiatek both raised concerns about disruptive fans during their matches.
The ban on alcohol in the stands is part of a broader effort to address rising fan misconduct in European sports.
Security measures have been intensified, with staff instructed to remove problematic spectators.
Tennis fans are generally well-behaved, but recent incidents have prompted stricter regulations.
Despite the ban, fans can still purchase alcohol outside the stadium and return to their seats.
