French Predictions... Recap

Sunset

Well... we tried our best... below are our predictions for the 2007 French Open that were posted before the tournament began and now we’ve added a few comments after the fact...
  • A male French player will reach the semis
    • Gael Monfils started to play to his fullest talent, but sadly for legions of French fans, he didn’t make it to the semis...
  • If she reaches the second week, Amelie Mauresmo will win the title…
    • Given her lack of matches going into Roland Garros, Amelie played pretty well in her first match and seemed as if she might break her French Open curse, but Lucie Safarova snared her again...
  • A Russian woman will reach the finals
    • Maria Sharapova surprised a lot of people by reaching the semis, but then her dream evaporated...
  • Neither defending champion, i.e. Rafael Nadal and Justine Henin, will reach the finals
    • Three in a row is an incredible accomplishment… hats off to both Nadal and Henin!
  • The 2007 French Open champions will each be first-time Roland Garros winners and one will be a first-time Grand Slam champion
    • Ana Ivanovic and Roger Federer made it to the finals, but their dreams ended there…
  • Roger Federer will lose before the semis
    • Federer made it to the finals again which is very impressive and a testament to the strength of his baseline game...
  • A new tennis "Superstar" will appear by the end of the tournament
    • Serbia... the new powerhouse little country "that could" in professional tennis!
  • Rain delays will spur calls for a roof over Court Philippe Chatrier
    • It was a tough first week at the French Open given all the rain and they’ve announced that the plans are being drawn up for a roof...
  • One of the 2007 Junior Roland Garros winners will win a regular Grand Slam title sometime in the future...
    • Keep your eye on Frenchwoman, Alize Cornet, who won the Junior Girls title...
