Roland Garros 2010

Okay, this post is actually later than expected. There a few sports that I like and tennis is one of them. This year's Roland Garros was quite interesting to watch. Firstly, it's because World Number 1 Serena Williams lost to Stosur. That was surprising since she could beat another opponent before that when she's sick. So how could she not beat World Number 7(Stosur) when she's well?

Besides, World Number 1 for Men, Roger Federer also lost huhu...Both World Number Ones lost. Then it's left to Schiavone vs Stosur in Women's Finals and Nadal vs Soderling in Men's Finals. I saw the Women's Finals but not the Men's.



Nadal and Schiavone both beat their opponents in straight sets. That's sad because Stosur was fantastic when she played against Serena and Jankovic. In the finals she did not perform very well. I was actually cheering for her but oh well..

If you see the picture above, Schiavone is not really the girly girl type. I've got to say the outfit she wore and the way she played was really unkemp-like. She's like really 'ganas' coz she shouted like a boy, ran like a boy and if she were to wear a bandana on her head, she would be mistaken as a boy. I'm not trying to discriminate her but she should really go for some grooming lesson. She 'mengganas' her way into winning the finals.

Now, the rankings a bit jumbled up, don't you think? Both World Number Ones didn't even manage to go into the finals. World Number 17(Schiavone) beat World Number 7(Stosur). However, Nadal the Number 2 did very well and won his 5th French Open Title. He will gain the Number One spot after this win! Poor Federer. It's okay I still heart him =)
