All the top seeds play at least one match on Lenglen or have you not watched Roland Garros before?

Chico is obsessed with Djokovic so don't bother.

Why was than everyone so upset when Nadal had to play his first match on Lenglen, despite him asking the match to be moved a day ahead.
Why double standards?

Nothing disappointing there.

More people want to see Federer though so it's probably all in order. Nadal also played on Langlen.

Because it's more natural for a 8 time champion to start his defense on the main court.
This is Djokovic's third match. Get over it.

Radio RG commentator: Federer becomes a different person in Swiss-German. He has doubts in Swiss-German that he never has in French or English.

It was just that people wanted his first match to be on Chatrier, since his last match gave him the title there. But FO don't have these traditions like W do.

Maybe I misunderstood what they were talking about out of context - I took it to mean that when he thinks in Swiss/German he plays worse than when he is being French! If they are talking about how he expresses himself in the different languages then it makes sense I just thought they were talking about the effect on his game.

I've only seen him play well against Murray.

Tursunov is a bit predictable now going to Fed's FH a lot and Fed can read it.

I'm a fan of Edberg 8)
But I want a Nadal - Djoko final. And sure, I wouldn't mind if Djoko lost it cause I don't like the guy

Yes, it's more about how they express themselves and (probably) how familiar they are when the reporters are from their home countries. In Fed's case, it's not a big country and the few tennis journalists have been interviewing him for years, so you get less of the PR-type and defensive responses, etc.

Well, he's only won 250 titles...

Same here! I'm a fan of Seles. I think it will be funny if Rafa lost in final, in one epic match. I like all of players, 'cuz I like tennis.

Now that was an unbelievable shot. Enjoyed it a lot even though Fed lost the set. But what a way to clinch it from Tursunov
