I think Roger Federer has a better chance of winning than almost any year, if (1) he makes it to the Final and (2) if Djokovic took care of Nadal. Both scenarios are not that unlikely.

Think about it, Federer make it to the Final, he would have to beat only two challenging opponents, Tsonga and Ferrer. Accompling that is not that unlikely. Djokovic beating Nadal is not that unlikely either. He did it in straight set, on clay, LAST MONTH!

Federer beat Djokovic during Djokovic's peak at 2011's French Open. Federer can very possibly do that again.

I think Nadal has to be the favorite, even with his shaky first match. Nadal won the last three clay tournaments (Barcelona, Madrid, and Rome) and his record at Roland Garros is unbelievable.

That being said, it is certainly possible for Djokovic to beat Nadal and Fed to then beat Djoker. In fact, that is what I will be pulling for.

My breakdown would probably be like this:

50% Rafa
30% Djoker
10% Fed
5% Ferrer
5% Rest of the field

I think the Final will be Tsonga vs. Nadal/Djokovic.

I know you're a Nadal hater.

For me, these are my three favorite players. I will be happy for any of them winning.

Your feelings are wrong all the time, such as your feelings about Murray!

Yeah I don't really care about your opinion.

Just feel privileged to have seen a great match.
