I really hope Laura wins today.biggrin

No betting advice. No philosophy. No logic. 

It's more in the hope that she uses it to go on a long run of wins in this tournament, on what should be her weakest surface, with all the confidence, ranking points and kudos that should bring. She CAN reach the QF if she serves well in all matches and matches her consistency and movement fromThe US Open last year.

I also think a one-sided loss for Caro in a GS might be the catalyst to FORCE her to change her approach to tennis. I do find her exceptionally immature compared to most of the big guns in women's tennis, although clearly a very nice person, and her stubborn refusal to change her pat-a-cake ultra-consistent rallying approach even when being absolutely hammered by the very best almost defies belief sometimes. Even Jankovic seems to have made a bold effort to be more aggressive on court, but Caro seems unwilling to even try. Her natural game will be more than good enough to win if Laura has an off day, which is why in the long run it might be better for both for a Laura hammering of Wozniacki today

I'm assuming it's a typo in the investment maths . . . ?

I would just like to thank ITV for having bought the Roland Garros TV rights - I enjoyed Jim Courrier's comments yesterday, the adverts weren't TOO long or at really crucial moments. So far, so good.

Am looking forward to the match, and am quite happy with 'at the moment', 'recently' or whatever term conveys someone's meaning effectively to the general public.

 I found their coverage good last year, they tend only to have ads at the change of ends.

Tsonga won his first set 6-2, so hopefully a straight sets win and Robbo up in an hour or so.

I've just noticed the language code for the english pages on the French open site is 'en_FR', which has got me wondering, exactly what is French English? Officer Crabtree perhaps?

This is pretty atrocious. She couldn't be playing more into Wozniacki's hands.
