Yeah its almost written in stone. Wicked you went? I followed it online/tv looked really good! How was the roof? also I very much envy you, seeing Agassi and Graf legends!

[BigSister]

Yeah the roof was good because they said it was raining and we didnt beileve them then when we went outside after it was still raining so it works. And yeah it was really good seeing the players as well that was the best part

[Wildcat!]

I'll be watching that. Looking forward to it. I saw the exhib as well. CAnt believe how good Steffi Graf looked! She hits just as hard, and I cant believe she's been gone for 10 years now. It was like she never left, except for her conditioning of course.

But for the Open, I dont think its gonna be a walk for Nadal this time. Federer just beat him in Madrid, and I can see some upsets.
Personally, I am rooting for Monfils.

You've got a point.. but I just don't see Nadal letting up! It'll take something incredible to beat him in Paris. However both Fed and Novak have proven that they can (Novak having 3 M.P in Madrid semi) So I'm excited for that!

The women's looks good too, Safina has been in excellent form, as has Kuznetsova and then there's Ivanovic who is defending the title. Then there is obviously the Williams' sisters to look out for and Jankovic who's already won a clay title this year and Dementieva is always in contention exciting time we live in for tennis!

[Marc]

Tough opening match for Ivanovic, she goes through to 2nd Round with a 7-6 6-3 victory over Errani.
Li Na, Bacsinszky, Pavlyuchenkova are also through to the 2nd Round

[BigSister]

Yay glad she got through

[Marc]

Ivanovic and Murray both through to 3rd Round - woop woop!

[BigSister]

^_^
Murray had a scare though glad hes through though

[Captain.Remy]

Djokovic to win ! I'm fed up of Nadal winning as much as I was fed up with Federed winning it all (except Roland Garros).
Time for another title holder now.

So far the competition has been good, all of the favourites got through.

[BigSister]

Novak got beat Remy*looks sad*
Anas still in there fighting though

[Jen]

I'm freaking out for Nadal...(Even though I kindov really don't like him)
I love to see him win. If Soldering wins the match it will give Federer a really good chance for the final and maybe to win.

Murry doing fantastic today.
Roddick and Monfils were very, very good yesterday. Definetly two to watch for. Roddick was on amazing form yesterday, amazing shot after amazing shot. Monfils, again. amazing shots over and over, he just gives out such passion... brilliant!

French Open always makes me excited for Wimbledon. It makes my summer.

[BigSister]

Yeah im worried for Nadal currently *crosses fingers tightly*
To say this is Murrays worse one and hes never gone past the fourth round hes doing pretty good

[Jen]

Fantastic for Murray.
Really brilliant.

*Happy*

[BigSister]

To say this is his worse slam as well quarters is great. Equealed Wimbledon from last year anyway ^_^

[Jen]

After his 3rd round match I was really doubtful if this one would be exciting.. it was. His best match so far.

What is the current scoring on Nadal V Soldering?

EDIT:

It's finally came on Red Button.

6-2 5-4 to Nadal. (Currently)

[BigSister]

Rafals wining 5-3 in the 2nd set so if he gets this one its back to 1-1

[Jen]

I want Soderling to break him... what an achievement it would be.
Then again I want Nadal to win, at the same time I don't want Nadal to win as I need Federer to win this open.

[Wildcat!]

Man this French open is craaazy! Nadal got unceremoniously dismissed in sets, now I see federer down 2-0. Unbelievable. (oops actually Federer won coming back from 2- down. LOL, I was watchig a replay)

But it is what I predicted. I said one of the french will win it this year, either Tsonga, Mathieu or Monfils. BUt I wasnt expecting to see Murray or Roddick to still be around.
Either way, great open. I guess the players have decided enough is enough!

[Wildcat!]

LOL!, Tsonga got eliminated. But Nonfils is beating Roddick atm!

[Captain.Remy]

I couldn't be happier that Nadal lost, it was getting boring to see him win every year just like Federer did with Wimbledon.
This open is crazy dude, I agree with you Ama, it's very unpredictable. I'm still stunned Tsonga lost but Monfils is on the good way to win tonight.

[BigSister]

ooh is it still playing I didnt know that

[Jen]

YES... I am extremely happy. Federer - with a rocky start- is through. I am so relieved, looks like he will be playing Monfils in the quarters. Come on Rodger.

Also... Hahahaha @ Nadal.

[Captain.Remy]

Monfils is kicking Roddick's ass, this is so great. It's going to be a good quarter final against Rodger.
