The 1997 French Open was a tennis tournament that took place on the outdoor clay courts at the Stade Roland Garros in Paris, France. The tournament was held from 26 May until 8 June. It was the 96th staging of the French Open, and the second Grand Slam tennis event of 1997.

Todd Woodbridge and Mark Woodforde of The Woodies attempted their chance to make history to complete all four Grand Slams at once, having won the previous year's Wimbledon, US Open and Australian Open earlier that year, but they lost to defending champions Yevgeny Kafelnikov and Daniel Vacek in the final, which they won their second consecutive doubles title.
