With the Madrid Open finished ( congrats to Serena and Roger ).
We move onto the French Open, now only 2 weeks away.
Federer will be the #2 seed and therefore may meet Nadal once again in the Semifinal. _________________ Legends Never Die. They Breathe Through The New Generation.

Where do you see that, I see Nadal as the 2nd seed everywhere.
As for the French itself, this is by far the most boring major in all of Tennis, mainly cause nobody has really challenged Federer and Nadal here, especially a healthy Nadal.
I pick Nadal to win this over Djokovic, Hopefully he faces Tsonga there in the Semi's. Del Potro is a dark horse as well, he's reached the Semi's here before. _________________

Want to see Djokovic win 4 in a row. Hasn't been done since Laver in 68. _________________ Legends Never Die. They Breathe Through The New Generation.

Whether he was 2 or 3 he could still meet Nadal in the Semis
But I did think I saw he became the #2 ranked player, but I also saw he was seeded #3. Did he become #2 after a cutoff because I thought that Wimbledon was the only one that didn't strictly follow the ranking. _________________

Probably, but it doesn't matter now, Nadal is back at 2. _________________

Roddick is down 2 sets to love but just came back, don't expect him to beat Mahut but its nice not crapping the bed in the French. _________________

Serena out in round 1. First time to do that in a major in her career.
And 1 of only I think 2 American women to lose in round 1.
No one had that happening. _________________

No one had that happening. | A HUGE upset. Serena was on a freaking tear on clay and was my heavy favorite.
I'm going with a huge upset pick and picking Nadal to win it all. _________________

Missed the Serena match.
And for the Women's I have Sharapova winning it all, and Nadal winning it for the dudes. _________________

Yeah, that match was weird. Her opponent was called for hindrance penalties several times during the match although I thought otherwise and it was something I almost never see called (except for last year's U.S. Open final). And then the clinching game was played horribly by both players. Made me want to just X out of the stream. _________________

Brian Baker, the dude has come back from a lot, too bad his run had to end today. Hopefully he can do well at Wimbledon _________________
