| This second Center Court, built in 1980 to meet the increasing demand from spectators, has a total capacity of 3,518. The round shape and soft evening light make for a particularly warm atmosphere. |  |
 |  |
| In 2001 the centre court was renamed the Philippe-Chatrier Court in honour of the great sports administrator who ran the French Tennis Federation between 1973 and 1993 and who passed away in 2000. In 2008, the stands of the Philippe-Chatrier Court have been renamed the Brugnon, Borotra, Lacoste and Cochet stand after the celebrated Musketeers. The overall seating capacity of the Philippe-Chatrier Court is now 14,840. |  |

| Built in 1994, this court has a capacity of 9.959 and was originally called Court A. Its name was changed in 1997, in honor of Suzanne Lenglen, "The Great Lady" of French tennis. A bronze high relief of the player, by Italian sculptor Vito Tongiani, overlooks the alley leading to the Court. The Suzanne Lenglen court has a special underground irrigation system enabling humidity levels of the soil to be controlled. |  |
 |  |
 | This alley was inaugurated in 1994, the year Marcel Bernard passed away, in honor of this great French player, winner of the French International Championships singles and doubles tournaments in 1946. |  |
| This square was inaugurated on May 26, 1989, by Philippe Chatrier, then President of the FFT, and is "dedicated to the Musketeers team who were the glory of French tennis," as indicated on a commemorative plaque. The talent and sporting feats of Jacques "Toto" Brugnon, Jean Borotra the "Bouncing Basque", Henri Cochet the "Magician", and Rene Lacoste the "Crocodile" were the driving forces behind the construction of the Roland Garros Stadium. |  |
 |  |
| Since 1980, the 17 prestigious partners in the Village are hosts to sports, show business, media, and business VIPs visiting Roland Garros. |  |
