Roland Garros 2007



Watched the Roland Garros women and men's final over the weekend.

It was an interesting contrast and pretty exciting match.

Justine Henin demolished the young Anna Ivanovic 6-1, 6-2 on Saturday. I felt a little disappointed for Anna Ivanovic, a young gal, full of hope and bright future, fumbles at the final. Not able to even mount a challenge and force Henin. Justine Henin is simply too experienced and seasoned for this young gal.

Yesterday's final was more interesting.

Rafael Nadal meeting Roger Federer again. The widely expected final for this year's French Open.

Nadal destroyed Federer's historic Grand Slam dream for another year by capturing his third successive French Open.

It was exciting with Nadal taking down the first set and Federer the second. The third set proved to be the all important one, with Ndadal securing it, and moving on to lift the trophy after the 4th set.

I felt very happy that Nadal won(nothing against Federer), as the crowd favorite is the world number 1, Federer. There were very little cheers and support for Nadal at the final. However, it grew louder as Nadal play some beautiful tennis! Great job!

Good stuffs!
