French Open Men's Draw

but RG is a slow court like the AO

AO is still HC though. RG is clay. Can't really compare them. If you're trying to suggest that Murray has a chance to beat Nadal because he would be nervous or scared because of AO, it's very doubtful.
 
I said on another post about clay tournaments that, slow Clay surfaces are becoming a territory for big hitters.Why??
Because they can move well,aren't fast,and still got the Cannons weather it's on serve or ground strokes,and as they don't move well the slow surface make it easier for them to get to the balls on time and be just ready to fire the Cannons.That's what happened to Del Potro,Soderling last year and more recently Gulbis.And they are all tall with 2 handers as well.
I do agree Fed and Nadal in best of 5 are tough to beat and I think both will get to the fianls.
 
Looking at Murray's draw, any chance he goes out early? Gasquet in the first round isn't an easy match. Gasquet has actually had limited success head to head against murray and he's played more on clay.

Dickie Gasquet will knock him out on the 1st round.Just wait for.By Wednesday Murray will be back in England training for Wimby.

Yeah it's a tough call, I can actually see that happening. If he does get by Gasquet, he shouldn't have a problem until the quarters, but man I hate to pick an upset that early.
 
Nadal's draw doesnt look bad at all. The spaniards usually roll over for him, and Hewitt and Ljubicic are way past their prime.
 
no he isn't.
yes he is 8). jk but seriously Gulbis is far more impressive than Verdasco. He posted up competitive matches against Nadal and Federer. Verdasco was handed a bagel and breadstick.

No chance. Gasquet although good won't beat Murray.

Lol. Murray won't be coming back until Friday (4th June 2010).
