Can't wait to seem them play in a few hours. I'll definitively watch it. But first I have to sleep a few hours until then. :D

I feel the same way. I'd like to see Federer win the French, and he's obviously going to have a much easier time with Novak than he would with Rafa.

It's pretty much like this: I respect Nadal as a person/sportsman but I don't really like his style of playing at all, outside of clay- and Djokovic, well I like his style of play, but he seems like a real bastard.

Yeah, I agree with you guys about Djoko's attitude and demeanor on court, however, it may be good for the game for someone other than Nadal, Nadal and Nadal to win a clay court tournament. With Federer consistently showing that he hasn't a clue with how to deal with Rafa on clay, Djokovic is probably the only one out there that stands any sort of chance with the Spaniard. I doubt it will happen though, Nadal winning RG is almost written in stone. :lol:

Nothing is written in the stone, nadal himself says it, he's humble.
everything can happen.

But he should win, i think in 4 sets, loosing the first, and it will be not easy, it will be hard for him.
Federer should win too in 4 sets
and in the final, it is 55/45 only for nadal against federer, even if i am for nadal: don't forget he has some injuries in knees and feets, and sometimes i feel him not so strong : he could make a lot of faults, while federer has an incredible precision and technique.

ps: sorry for my english i am frenchy

If nadal's feet will hold, he'll win for sure. But I rather hope we have a close match. Fun to watch :)

Nole has only one chance, playing always with 1st serve and attack with his forehand if Rafa let the ball on the middle court, which is easy to happen because Nole´s first serve is really good and difficult to return

Did anyone else see his dad at the Jankovic/Ivanovic match? The usher had to tell him to sit down. I predict he'll be banned from matches like Jelena Dokic's dad was.
