    Sunnday, 3 June - French Open .

    Big day coming up , Last 16 starts today , things starting to heat up .
    Feeling to write some words about some of the matches today .

    Angelique Kerber vs Petra Martic

    head to head : Martic leads 2-0 , last meeting in 2009 .

    Kerber doing well on the clay season , actually she is in her best part in her young carrer , she just got into the Top10 and looking forward , her 1st two rounds was easy , won both in straight sets , on the 3rd round she had to win in 3 sets against Pennetta .
    Martic came with upset on the 2nd round when she beat Bartoli , she is doing pretty well this week , dont think someone thought she will find herself in the 2nd week , but she made it . Her serve doing alot of damage .

    Kerber right now is in the top of her game, She is heavy favourite here althought the H2H record , Im taking Kerber here , she is the better player between these two , and seems like in better form.
    Kerber @ 1.34

    Viktoria Azarenka vs Dominika Cibulkova

    heat to head : Azarenka leads 7-1 ( on clay : 1-1 )

    Azarenka almost lost on her 1st round when she was down a set and 4-0 on the 2nd set but she found a way to comeback and win . Im pretty sure she isnt convinced with her preformance after this week too , after an easy 2nd round she had another battle against Wozniack and she won in straight set ( 6-4 6-4 ) but not convincenly.

    Cibulkova having a great week , havent lost a set yet , and lost only 8 games in her 3 matches so far .
    Obiovusly this match going to be a battle from the baseline , two great hitters , Cibulkova coming with confident to this match but ofcourse its not going to be easy for her facing up against Azarenka who having her best year so far.

    Im taking Cibulkova ML @ 3.71 and Cibulkova +5 @ 1.6 , Azarenka seems uncomfortable on the clay , she didnt win any title on the clay season yet and you can see her struggling after the 1st week , so Im trying my chances on the Slovakian .
    Also taking outright bet :
    Samantha Stosur to win the french open @ 9.16

    Jo Wilfried Tsonga vs Stanislas Wawrinka

    head to head : 1-1 ( on clay : 1-0 to wawrinka )

    Tsonga coming after a win over Fognini in straight sets , he lost a set on the 1st round and also one on the 2nd one , he can be happy with reaching the 2nd week but today its gonna be a diffrent story facing against really though oppennet.

    Wawrinka worked hard this week , won his 1st round in 5 sets , and also coming after beating Simon on the 3rd round in 5 setter as well .
    Last meeting between them was on last year in the french open , Wawrinka came back from 2 sets down to win it.
    I think Wawrinka plays well on clay , on the other hand Tsonga prefers fasts surfaces .
    althought playing at home ( Tsonga ) , I really think Wawrinka has a good chance to win this one and he comes with great confident after beating Simon in the last round.

    Wawrinka @ 2.16
    Juan Martin Del Potro vs Tomas Berdych

    head to head : Delpo leads 3-2 ( 1-1 on clay )
    Delpo is coming after winning Cilic in straight sets , he had a problem in his knee in the 1st round against Montanes but he beat him in 4 sets , 2nd round wasnt convincing for him aswell.

    Berdych won his 1st two rounds in straight sets , on the 3rd round he cameback from 2-1 down against Anderson to win it in 5 sets .

    last meeting was 3 weeks ago in Madrid , Berdych won in straight sets.
    Delpo isnt 100% for this match , Berdych really looking good in recent weeks .
    though to pick but Im taking Berdych here .

    Tomas Berdych @ 2.15


    Goodluck !

    Being the last Frenchman doesn't mean much. If anything it means less because he has already accomplished being the highest placed Frenchman at the open this year...
