Ladies Semis French Open 2010 - So Who's It Gonna BE HUH?

RR here -

JJ, Leni, Stosur and Schiavone! What?? Well it's not that weird I guess - all except Schiavone have been deep in grand slams and specifically the French before. But who would have picked that final four? It's exciting to have 4 players in the semis who have never won a grand slam. I'll be happy for any one of these women.

So who's it going to be? That's really tough. I am going to go with.... Jankovic. No, Stosur. No, Jankovic. Leni? I don't know! Watch Schiavone sneak on through, that would be rad.

Well I guess we'll just have to wait and see. Many great players watching from the stands. It'll be fun.

Cristea Defeats Jankovic

I have nothing against Cristea- I like her game- but I was sad to see Jankovic go down. Jelena really seemed worn down at the end- the crowd was being awful to her, I keep meaning to do a big post about how the French crowds are the worst in the world--and she just didn't have any down the line winners I feel I know she can hit. She just looped the ball back to Cristea, over and over again. I will say the rallies were great- really long and great, almost painful to watch them sometimes, Good God, they are such trememdous athletes--and Jankovic played well. But in the end, Cristea would load up and crack the winner and Jankovic just did not do that.

Now I watch Monfils and Roddick. I think Monfils can win this. I hope he does.

Sorry this post was so boring. For excitement and my generally goofball postiness, please read the one below, where I talk about s&m and prostitution.

Yours Truly,
