Former Ohio State men's tennis doubles team qualifies for 2025 French Open
It's always nice to see former Ohio State athletes doing some pretty special things. Yes, football kind of runs things in and around the banks of the Olentangy, but it's a big athletic department at OSU. After all, if Ohio State wasn't known as a football school, it very well could be known as a tennis school. It has been one of the best tennis programs in the country since head coach Ty Tucker took over. And on that note, the former Ohio State doubles duo of Robert Cash and JJ Tracy are going to be taking part in one of the most prestigious ATP Tournaments this year, the French Open. The annual Grand Slam event takes place next week, and Cash and Tracy are in the top 75 doubles teams in the country, thus qualifying for the event. Advertisement The team has been on a bit of a tear after winning a doubles national championship last May. They have won two events on clay, winning the ATP Challenger clay court title in Sarasota, Fla., in early April and then winning in France in late April to win another title, beating No. 58 Theo Arribage and No. 33 Hugo Nys in the final. But it's not just been on clay. Cash and Tracy have won six professional titles and reached the final in two other events over the past year. They also won a match in their US Open debuts last August. We know we will be rooting for the duo, and we'll provide any noteworthy moments that come from Roland-Garros next week.
