And is Soderling still out of it?

Azarenka and Nadal win.

I'd bet my account on the latter.

Those two Masters 1000 finals wins over Djokovic were huge and they erased any chance Djokovic had.

Roddick gets put in Federer's section again. This has to be some kind of joke. Not that Roddick even makes it to round 3, but still. Serena in Sharapova's quarter again also kinda sucks.

Djokovic can become the first man since Rod Laver in 1969 to win 4 Grand Slams consecutively. He won't though, because Nadal is about to break Bjorn Borg's record of 6 French Opens.

It's odd, when I was younger I looked forward to the French as the tournament where anything could happen. Not anymore.

The last time I remember seeing him play really well was at the Sony Ericson. That felt like such a long time ago already even though it wasn't too long ago this year. And he still lost the match I thought he was really playing well in.

Actually, if Starace were about 10 years younger I'd say he'd have the potential to become a top 10 player. I like this guy, and he's out there doing great things. Bad luck he was against Djoko, really <_<

Query/Tipseravic is turning into an interesting match.

Query Dominated set 1 and fell apart in 2. Then he gave up an early break in S3 and now has 3 break points to tie the 3rd set 5-5. Exciting ^_^
