He's only just turned 20 though, even the Big 3 weren't dominating at that age (apart from Nadal on clay). He's won a load of clay matches already, a little break before Paris is probably ideal.

That fellow Novak will be tough to beat without Rafa to get past. How's he been going in the clay lead up tournaments?

Iga odds on to win before the start of the tournament. As good as she is would bet against her at that miserable price.

Yes it’s sad that the Douche will probably win his 23rd slam in Paris…

This is a good year to bet against her, both Sabalenka and Rybakina have had her number this year…pretty sure one of those two is going to win…

Especially after he didn't quite manage to keep politics out of the sport after his most recent victory. WAC.
Surprised this is his equal best run at RG as he's a good clay player. Only Brit left as the Murray/Raducanu successes fade into distant memories and we're back to where we were in the mid-90s.

Oddly enough I am less worried about Jack Draper than Emma. Draper not done much on clay but he seems to have something about him on te other surfaces.
Looking at the quarters , Tsitspias in the Alcarez side and Khachanov in the Novak quarter seem the main obstacles to what would be a monster semi final.
Ladies side Iga beginning to roll but Rybakina and Saba look good and Iga likely needs to beat both to win this. Not ideal but still think this is Rybakinas worst surface and she has Jabeur floating around in her quarter.

Obviously still want her to win, but yeah can't take this seriously. I understand its tough for people to speak out but generic rubbish like "we don't support the war" means SFA in the grand scheme of things.

Belarus' Aryna Sabalenka says she did not do an open news conference after her French Open third-round match for her own "mental health and wellbeing".

Ryb out due to illness, obviously anything can happen any day etc, but Jabeur 3rd fav, Gauff 4th and then Muchova and Kasaktina joint 5th favs........its hard to see past Iga or Saba now.
To be fair that would be a great final, ladies tour has been really entertaining last few months as the randoms have been minimalised.

It was a bit unfortunate with Dasha, I mean she has come out against the war, but svitty said she still wouldn't shake hands because of the optics in Ukraine, they both gave each other a thumbs-up, umm I could make a joke about that with Kasatkina's ***uality, but obviously I'm classier than that.
