Infosys and Roland Garros have unveiled a new suite of AI-powered digital experiences set to debut at Roland Garros 2026, while also extending their technology and AI-partnership through 2031. Powered by Infosys Topaz, the latest innovations introduce new tools for fan engagement, match insights, content creation, and on-site experiences.
Among the additions is Rolly, an AI-powered StatsBot available on the Roland Garros website and mobile app. Drawing on live and historical tournament data dating back to 2013, it can answer statistical queries while providing match context and narrative insights through conversational interactions.
The tournament will also introduce Rally, an AI-powered humanoid robot at the Infosys Fan Zone. Equipped with audio and computer vision capabilities, it can interact with visitors through selfie capture, tennis-themed predictions, and real-time match-related conversations. Another new feature, Momentum, visually tracks the flow of matches by highlighting momentum shifts, set changes, and key scoring moments.
Beyond the AI Robot: Infosys Expands Roland Garros Digital Ecosystem
Existing AI-powered platforms are also being upgraded. AI Commentary will now be available in French, while the Excitement Rating feature has been simplified with an ‘Exciting’ indicator to help fans identify high-intensity matches. The AI-assisted journalism portal has also been enhanced with new customization features, image editing tools, and infographic templates for content creation.
Beyond the tournament, Infosys is continuing its collaboration with Association Fête le Mur, a charity partner of the French Tennis Federation, to develop tennis-focused learning modules on Infosys Springboard. As part of the initiative, 60 underprivileged youth aged 11 to 17 will visit Roland Garros and participate in AI and technology workshops led by Infosys experts.
Gilles Moretton, President, French Tennis Federation, said, “Our long-standing partnership with Infosys continues to push the boundaries of how Roland-Garros connects with its audience. By combining the tournament’s heritage with advanced AI technologies, we are creating richer, more inclusive experiences that resonate with fans on-site and around the world, while staying true to the spirit of the game.”
Sumit Virmani, Global Chief Marketing Officer, Infosys, said, “As AI continues to reshape how fans engage with live sport, the real opportunity lies in turning data into deeply engaging experiences. At Roland-Garros, we are leveraging AI to go beyond simply presenting match information by enabling fans to experience the momentum, context, and emotion of the game in real time. These innovations underscore our commitment to building intelligent, human-centric digital ecosystems that enhance engagement at scale.”
