Nadal's refusing to admit that revenge has anything to do with it, but Soderling is the only man to ever beat him in the French Open, so i think revenge will definitely be on his mind.
Nadal is the favourite, but will the fact he lost to Soderling last year play on his mind?
i went for soderling.. he did it last year so will be determined not to lose this year and besides if nadal is consumed with 'revenge' he might lose focus

True...
Tennis is a great game, but at the same time it scares me a bit. It's very introverted these days. Was much more fun to watch back in the day with Mcenroe, Connors etc.
Nadal is already just one away from equaling Bjorn Bjorg's record of Roland Garros titles. Wonder how many more can he win or will he have the usual mid 20s drop off that tennis players have?

went to Roland Garros stadium once many moons ago .... Ille Nastase mooned the players on next court .. Vitas Gerulitis was one of them ... very funny .... not on centre court, or course ...

Hopefully Ana Ivanovic does that at Wimbledon
Sport needs a few jokers like Nastase again, damn political correctness, PR people and the media for taking the fun out of it!
