Kala the Australian Open final is still over 2 hours away and you've already made a topic for the next Grand Slam which is still a while away. Plenty of hard court tennis to be played before the clay season.

Men's Draw:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2010_French_O...Men%27s_Singles Women's Draw: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2010_French_O...men%27s_Singles Some very exciting 1R matches! I'd like to see: Men: -Murray vs. Gasquet (Gasquet is on a 9 match winning streak and all matches were on clay in France and he's a former top-tenner...) -Troicki vs. Robredo -Roddick vs. Nieminen -Hewitt vs. Chardy Women: -Cornet vs. Pavlyuchenkova -Halep (breast reduction girl) vs. Stosur -Jankovic vs. Molik -Safina vs. Date-Krumm (former #4 who is 39 years old!) -Kuznetsova vs. Cirstea *Both girls have tons of ranking points to defend, and will drop so much in the rankings and are both playing terribly at the moment -Dulko vs. Azarenka *What guy won't want to see that match? -Venus vs. Schnyder (former top 10 player) -------------------- "You don't have to be perfect, but you have to try very hard, and I did all the time"

Please use Baghdatis' individual topic
He will have trouble against Murray for obvious reasons, and because Murray has trained a lot in Spain on clay... -------------------- "You don't have to be perfect, but you have to try very hard, and I did all the time"

Already the top players on the women's side are falling!
Azarenka, Zvonareva, Ivanovic, Radwanska, Safina, and Martinez Sanchez have all lost! -------------------- "You don't have to be perfect, but you have to try very hard, and I did all the time"

Baghdatis is starting to hit good form now, which is great.
Does anyone know when he will be playing Murray? --------------------  Eνα όνειρο μία ομάδα |

And that's it for Baghdatis' tournament, surprising 3rd set, I didn't think he'd even take one. Federer joins the 700 club, another accomplishment for the greatest of all time.

Very exciting and it seems that Djokovic will likely reach #1 after this tournament! And for the women Sharapova, Clijsters, Azarenka, and Wozniacki are the main favorites. Marcos is on track to meet Soderling on Friday and Eleni Daniilidou might have a shot at Maria Sharapova on Saturday!

Interesting First Round Matches:
Men: Nadal vs. Isner Monaco vs. Verdasco Dolgopolov vs. Schuettler Lopez vs. Federer Gasquet vs. Stepanek del Potro vs. Karlovic Tursunov vs. Malisse Querrey vs. Kohlschreiber Ljubicic vs. Devvarman Women: Wozniacki vs. Date-Krumm Peer vs. Martinez Sanchez-COMPLETED Oudin vs. Schiavone Schnyder vs. Cirstea Sharapova vs. Lucic Mirza vs. Barrois Stosur vs. Benesova-COMPLETED Razzano vs. Gajdosova *I think everyone should know that Razzano might be the biggest story of the tournament. She's French and she's a former top 20 player who reached the 4th round here in 2009. She has an unusual game which can be tricky for some players. She pulled off an upset over Maria Sharapova earlier in the year in Fed Cup in Moscow. She is going to play the best tennis of her life here, because her fiancee just died last week and he told her to make sure she plays no matter what and she is going to play for him out there. And the French crowd is most patriotic out of all the Grand Slams and I have no doubt that they will do everything they can to make sure that she does well here. It also wouldn't surprise me if they put her matches on the main stadium. After all, they've put her there in the past, and now she is going to be more popular than ever. It's a shame that she has a tough draw with Gajdosova in the first round, Medina-Garrigues in the second round, and Petkovic in the third round. -------------------- "You don't have to be perfect, but you have to try very hard, and I did all the time"
