Four candidates were auditioned on Wednesday: Jean-François Vilotte, Charline Avenel, Erwann Le Prévost and Najat Vallaud-Belkacem. The decision was taken on Wednesday after the last hearings, but it has not yet been made public.

Vilotte has already assumed the function of "DG" within the French Tennis Federation twice, from 2007 to 2009 and from 2018 to 2021. The position has been vacant since the dismissal of Florence Hardouin.
