French Open 2008

So delicious...Nadal takes a bite off his 2007 French Open Trophy...

Roland Garos, aka The French Open begins today, 25th May. Will it be him (above) again or will it be another him?Defending champion Rafael Nadal seeks his 4th consecutive French Open title while hot on his heels are Roger Federer and Djokovic.

Federer, arguably the best in his generation chases the only grand slam that has eluded him. He owns a remarkable 12 slams. Novak Djokovic seeks his 2nd grand slam title after winning in Australia in January.

On the ladies side, defending champion, Justine had retired. This has open up chances for a whole lot of people. Ana Ivanovic, Jelena Jankovic, the William sisters and more. Sharapova has an outside chance and like Federer, seeks the only grand slam that has eluded her. She is but just 21!

My prediction: Rafael Nadal and Serena Williams.
