    Who would be Roland Carros dark horses?

    My options.
    Na Li is DH to the win. She can really beat top6
    V Williams SF. I think she improves her game every second, and could be small suprise
    Kerber, Penneta, Safarova, Errani could be QF

    hardhitters Kanepi, Hradecka, Barhel could server some upset

    any thoughts?

    Cibulkova if she can play like she played few months ago against Aza... Errani is very similar to Schiavone so she can probably surprise too

    For men, I would probably say Isner. He"s the only 1 imo with a slight chance to beat one of the big 3.

    Isner has a very very small chance to beat any of the big 3 on dirt.

    Took a future on Raonic +14500 a couple of weeks back. Not holding my breath on it, but still think he is a much better chance than that to surprise.

    Took Rafa to 5 last yr, and beat Fed on clay in Davis Cup. He's comfortable playing on clay with the high bounce.

    Depends on the draw ... Let's look at the draw first.

    definitely depends on the draw...

    when Isner is -150 for his first match on a tournament on clay, and loses, i cant consider him a threat. he simply cant break a serve. his serve needs to be perfect to compete with any of the big dogs.

    thats a great opportunity to hedge if he can avoid an upset in the first few rounds.
