Surprise Surprise Nadal wins Roland Garros

Roland Garros over for another year and unless you are a delusional Nadal fanboy or fangirl, then it was a tedious event that was won by a man who hardly got out of neutral and had more stress doing part of his speech in French. In other words clearly outplayed the field and as predictable as night following day.

As for the rest Robin Söderling backed up his good form from last season and took out Federer, but came up short in the final again. Tomas Berdych finally made a semi final and it was probably good that he didn't make the final as he would have performed worse than what Söderling did. Still have to do an article on Berdych later in the year.

Onto better news "Mr. Prostejov" Jan Hajek won the title again for the third time and it saw the comeback to the tour for Radek Stepanek who has lost nothing in the sexiness department. Disappointingly Stepanek was ill and had to retire at the end of the first set of the final, hope it's not another setback after his problems with glandular fever.
