Don't get me wrong, I have nothing against Federer, he is actually my favorite member of big 3 but he is also realistic and it is not coincidence he was skipping clay season last couple of years. I believe he decided to play this time around just to get some actual match time. Mission accomplished, time to get ready for grass.
Even i am having the same thought process now, before he tournament i was thinking why he returned to play here which is not even his forte but now i think he wanted to have some real match practice and for the past one year everyone was not getting the actual sessions that they actually get and he wanted to get out and play free and he very well did that and i am hoping injury will not hurt his mission to win another championship most probably this year.

Already won my bet on Nadal vs Norrie under 27.5 and Djokovic vs Berankis under 25.5, parlay @3.44 odds.

Seems that Federer has some struggles early, but I'm expecting him to win in a very tight 3 sets.

Tsitsipas vs Busta later - I seeing this to be a 4 set at the most, Busta is also a good clay court player and very consistent in the last clay tournament he join, will try to bet later on this game.

You really got lucky on that nadal bet norrie had him in the second set with 2 breaks but nadal was able to break him fully. Unbelievble play by Nadal today against a really good opponent. Norrie was really good today and a really big shame that he didnt do something in this match. Djokovic destroyed berankis today.

Yeah, on the first set with Nadal was break and the score was 0-2 I thought that my bet are lost already. but then he come back strong.

Surprising defeat by Serena Williams, LOL, I started my parlay with her winning, unfortunately she was upset. Tsitsipas destroying a good opponent in Carreno-Busta, I thought the game will be extended, but in the first set alone, Stepanos won big and. there's no way that Busta can recover the way Tsitsipas is playing in this tournament.

Good decision by Federer to quit as I will bet against him vs Berrettini.

Williams didn't make it at the Paris open. very unfortunate as she has been chasing a record for a new record for grand slam wins for some time now. Given the fact that she is now almost 40, that will be a difficult story. At Wimbledon she could give it another try with her power tennis. Williams remains a phenomenon in the tennis world.

its too bad that Federer withdraw from Roland Garros due to fatigue after returning from injury to participate in the second Grand Slam tournament.
Bad news for tennis fans, especially as he was supposed to meet Serbian Novak in the quarter-finals of the tournament, before the winner of them met Elmatador Nadal in the semi-finals.
Now I am gonna be a little toxic and say, of course he withdrew since Beretini would have kicked his ass. Better for Federer to conserve his strength and knee for Wimbeldon where he will have a realistic chance to win another major. I am sure he did not really think he can win in RG, this was more like an experiment to see how far he can push himself.

Djoko and Rafa's road to the semi-finals is paved with roses, my money will be on Nadal since its Rolland Garros will reach the final

Djokovic is dominating hard. He is in good shape. I wish Federer would play a role in this tournament, but he would have to beat both Djokovic and Nadal, that's impossible. What is interesting though would be Djokovic vs. Nadal in the semifinal. If Djokovic really manages to play his very best it is going to be a super clash between the two.

Djokovic and Nadal has the advantage in this surface, Federer will have to play perfection in order to beat the 2 this year in Roland Garros. And I think he is really taking it one game at a game as we all know that he is coming back from a long lay off and injuries.

He is now on the court with Koepfer, expecting him to win and I do hope that he will cover -5.5 in this match as I have a bet on him.

Absolutely, but Federer made it to the next round which is awesome. I just like him and he deserves it as a sportsman and a private person. Always humble.

As for Nadal and Djokovic it is a little bit sad that they meet in the semifinal. I wish they would meet in the final. It's still somewhat different. If Nadal wins that semifinal against him who else has the quality to stop him in the final? Under normal circumstances nobody.

Unfortunately, I lost my bet, the score was so close that they have multiple tie breaks and I just needed needed Federer to at least win by 3 points, but the close out score in 4th set is 7-5, only 2 points, damn, was close.

Anyhow, it's good to see Federer going into the 4th round, but it won't be easy, I'm betting for Federer +4.5 this time @1.79, couple with some.

That is a brave bet. I don't think from now on he will win any game easily in 3 sets. Your bet will be tough to win if he has one very bad set, like a 2-6. Maybe I underestimate him, but I just can't see him blowing his opponent off the field. He has his weak moments more often than he used to have them (no blame on him for his age) and even in the game yesterday there was such a moment although his opponent was freaking out like hell. I hope for some games between the big three and for that it is so important that he just wins one more game.

EDIT: Roger is out, gave up because of his knee Sad

Yes I heard this earlier, I think he should retire while he is 100%, rather than risk an injury
in the next round which theoretically is going to be tougher against Berrettini and ruling him
out of Wimbledon. Lets face it and he knows himself he wont win RG.


I agree, his main focus is Wimbledon and it's better to stop now than keep forcing his body. If he stops now, he should be happy with his performance and can have high expectations for the next grandslams.



Another match between C. Garin vs D. Medvedev the first set Medvedev has won and the second set He also lead by 3-0, surprising see Medvedev still stay in this French Open because if I am not mistaken in the previous few French Opens he always lost in the early rounds.

Medvedev also won easily set 2 with 6-1.

Tsitsipas has taken the first set 6-3 from Carreno Busta. I have a bet on Tsitsipas to win
so hopefully he keeps it up.
Tsitsipas also won the second set.

Bad news for all sincere tennis fans.
''Roger Federer says he may pull out of the French Open if there is too much risk to his knee, and to his Wimbledon prospects, from playing on.''
It would be a really big loss for this tournament if Federer gave up due to injury.

Other news.
''For the first time, the French Open has introduced daily night sessions, which consist of one match starting at 9pm local time under the floodlights on Court Philippe Chatrier.
That meant the third set did not start until shortly after 11pm, the match eventually finishing not long before 1am, and left many tennis fans on social media platforms wondering who actually benefited from the late scheduling.''


It seems to me that this is exaggerated and that the organizers should consider the decision.
Who can watch these matches until midnight and shouldn't the matches be for the fans and spectators?
What do you think?

Very good match from Federer even if he looked a bit tired in the 2nd and 3rd set, but mentally he was stronger and went for quick points in his games. But a start in the round of the last 16 is not yet fixed for him.

I was late getting to watch that match, I missed the 1st set. Federer was pushed well
in that match obviously with 3 tie breaks. I pit a simple win bet on at the beginning of the
3rd set but I was sweating in the 4th, it was very close but happy that Fed is through to
the next round. I'm not sure how he is going to cope with the next level.

True, it was a 4 setter and if you look at the score, it was really close, 3 tie breakers and then 7-5 in the fourth set to close out Koepfer. Next for Federer is Berrettini, I don't know if Federer can keep it up with another clay court specialist.

Nadal and Sinner, the old vs young, which do you think will prevail in this match? I'm still leaning on Nadal showing why is he is the best clay player in the last 10 years here, I will not be surprised a 3 set win for him.

There are a lot of surprises in the women's competition at the tournament in Paris.
''Elina Svitolina became the seventh top-10 seed to be knocked out in the French Open's opening week as she fell in the third round to Barbora Krejcikova.''
''The Ukrainian follows Ashleigh Barty, Naomi Osaka, Karolina Pliskova, Aryna Sabalenka, Belinda Bencic and Bianca Andreescu out of Roland Garros.''
What’s going on in the women’s competition this year?
There are really a lot of surprises in this tournament and I wonder if this is finally the right opportunity for Serena to win her record GS?
What do you think?
In the male competition, everything is much more predictable and there are not many surprises.
