Top Ten Memories from the 2010 French Open
What will stay with us from the 2010 French Open tennis tournament…
o Venus Williams' sheer lace dress…
o Rafael Nadal's blue green shirt and expensive wrist watch!
o Terre battue, beach tennis and a big screen TV at L’Hotel de La Ville
o Maria Sharapova showing improved serving and play in almost beating Justine Henin… watch out at Wimbledon!
o The inspired play of both Samantha Stosur (especially in holding her nerve to beat Justine Henin and Serena Williams) and Francesca Schiavone throughout the tournament…
o Francesca Schiavone kissing the terre battue
o Rafael Nadal burying his head in his towel and crying after winning the title again
o The ballboys and ballgirls – they are so efficient and always there ready to retrieve or toss the ball, yet you also never “see them”
o The maintenance crew walking onto Court Philippe Chatrier in shorts to water and sweep the court while also using a broom to clean the lines… in 2010!
o Francesca Schiavone's comments in her post-final press conference about “anything being possible”…
