Will you be watching any of the Womens draw either due to Ivanovic being out? ;)

My favourite is still in.


Who is that?

Agreed. One thing's for sure, there will be next to no better chances than this for Fed to win the French, especially if Murray falls short.

I don't know the answer to this one, but has there ever been a bigger upset in tennis?

I think I had more chance to have an all night orgy with Megan Gale and Jennifer Hawkins than Soderling had of winning this match!

But he's had the wood on Fed of late.

What a shock Nadal losing his first ever match at the French Open and in the 4th Round to Robin Soderling! Obviously Hewitt loosened Nadal up too much in his 6-1, 6-3, 6-1 loss to him last match ;)

Davadenko would have to be up there with the favourites now, as he is definitely a good clay courter, and jsut ousted verdasco in straight sets. An extremely convincing win for him.
I would like to see Tsonga or Monfils go the whole way in there home grand slam

Both Tsonga & Monfils are on the Fed side of the draw, so I hope they don't make it and Fed goes on to win the tourny !!

Haas took the first set from Federer in a tiebreak, after Fed absolutely dominated on serve and seriously pushed Haas on his serve through the whole set.

And Federer has blown a break in the second set, Haas leads 5-4 on serve. The King is in trouble here!

This is just bizarre stuff, have a look at these match stats in Federer's favour:

Aces 9-6
Winners 40-27
Dropped no service points in the first set

And yet he's down 2 sets to 0. Crazy.
