Serena Williams advance to second round, She only had a tough match in the first set against Ahn.

I am starting to think that she won't win another slam. She has stumbled quite a few times in the later stages of finals recently, and she is also showing uncharacteristic vulnerabilities as in the first round here. The second set was easy, but the first really was not. I think the problem is mainly mental, but obviously with each tournament the physical side becomes harder as she nears retirement.
Your analysis was right Cnut237.
Serena Williams just gave up this morning due to an injury to the achilles tendon according to her words.

Did anyone of you guys check the odds and put a bet?



Nadal is the obvious favorite followed by Djokovic and Thiem.

Who do you guys think will upset them? Tsitsipas is very inconsistent will Schtwartzman and Zverev but comes short. It will boils down to Nadal and Djokovic again? The odds is still attractive, but I haven't put any bet as of yet.

If you think that Nadal will win the French Open (what I also think) than I would suggest to place a bet on freebitco.in. There you can get an odd of 3.03 for Nadal to win the title!
Odd for Thiem to win is at freebitco.in around 2.75.

I'll check freebitco.in then, thanks for the heads-up, I'm also not aware that they have sport bookies. But I'm sure if will change as we get closer to the finals. But if got in early, of course higher odds for you. Thiem is next against J. Sock, not expecting any upset for now. Serena and Halep (1) will also be in the court this day. I need to check the schedules though, so that I can watch.

So it's a 5 setter win for Tsitsipas and Rublev? Damn, but yes, probably adjusting on clay court.

Watched Tsitipas and Rublev today, they both had a tough time adjusting to RG clay after playing Hamburg final just 2 days ago. Both went 2 sets down and managed to turn their matches. I am very glad they did it since I expect great things from both of them and it would be a shame to lose them in round 1. I expect much better performances from them in next rounds after they had few more days of training and rest.

If that is true, those odds have some real value. I guess liquidity is probably low if the odds got slanted that much in favor of Thiem. Did not even know they had a sportsbook Smiley
freebitco.in odds are not fixed they can came down in coming days right now Nadal is on @3.01 and Thiem is on @2.77 as tournament will progress this will came more down.

That's right the odds are not fixed and the pool is shared for all bettors who placed a bet on Nadal. I believe early bettors earn more percentage of the pool but its not as much as to placing a fixed bet with one of the sportsbooks. I think the only danger to Nadal not winning is Djokovic and Thiem, I do have a small bet on Thiem like I do every year on the French Open.

Nadal has an open road to semi-final, with Zverev there, do not think that anyone can kick him out
Djokovic has an open road to semi-final as well, with only major player there, if we can call him that on clay, is Khachanov

Yes, Zverev is a potential opponent in the QF and then Thiem in semis for Nadal.

Djokovic will have Matteo Berrettini in QF and then Medvedev in semis. Another possibility is Tsitsipas in semis as well.

But we all know why Nadal is the favourite here, he is nearly unbeatable in French Open, 93-95. I think it will only be Djokovic who might be his top competitor.
Yes Djokovic seems to be very strong this year, he beat his first opponent Mikeal Ymer in 1h38 only  (6-0, 6-2, 6-3)

Tsitsipas, Schwartzmann, Wawrinka (would not count him out), Shapovalov are in Thiem line to semi-final, and who reach the match will have to face Thiem in QF, and then Djokovic will probably wait in semi-final

Zverev does not have reputable players in his draw part as well, but he is not that good on clay, and i presume that he will be out during the tournament

I saw the statistics at the start of the match that Medvedev from 2017 always lost in the first round of the French Open, I didn't think that would happen again this year but the results were repeated, quite disappointing.

Medvedev is out which is a huge upset for the un-seeded Fucsovics and also Monfils is out also so two top seeded players out already in the first round. Nadal looks in fine form as he was training hard for this tournament however I still think Djokovic is the one that wants to prove something after what happened at the US Open so it will be interesting to see how he goes in his first match.

Surprising this is the final grand slam event of 2020. And what a shame since Roland garros should of been back in July but since the circumstances forbid it being til after the summer. Undecided
I liked the promotional footage they put infront of the event on the tennis channel.
"The sport will endure as we move on from point to point during tough times..."
Very inspirational for those who watch sports to pass the time until the circumstances we are all in has indeed passed. Embarrassed

It has a strange ambience surrounding this tournament most certainly.

Cilic is out, and it was a routine for Thiem, he was a much better player today then before US Open, if i may say that
think that RG made exception to have Thiem and Djokovic in the same part of the draw, and they will be semi-final partners, cannot wait for that match, will be very interesting to see where is Thiem right now, he kicked-out Djokovic last semi-final, and now seems that he is better than last year, and Djokovic is not that good as last year
Be careful Nadal is in great shape too. Like Thiem, he just won his first match in the tournament in 3 sets and 2 hours (against Gerasimov)
Tomorrow Djokovic will play his first match in the contest (against Mikael Ymer)

Well once again Tsitsipas has lost in a big match which most expected him to win. He did fight back after going one set down but Rublev was just too good for Tsitsipas on the day and was able to keep control of the third set. Not sure how Tsitsipas will do in the French Open after just a one day break from the Hamburg final but we shall see.

It was another big let down for us fans of Tsitsipas. French Open will be much tougher for him and he will be one of the long shot. It's good though that he has reach the German finals, I thought that he will lost against Garin.

I glance at French Open, it seems that there are a lot of hard match already, 3-5 setter. Wawrinka won a 3 setter against Murray.

First round of the French Open has just started and the 11th seed Goffin is already out against another young talent Sinner. Didn't really expect this loss of Goffin.
Goffin is a good player but I don't think he will ever win a grand slam.
