Yes lots of dark clouds around.

However, it must have only been a little drizzle as they're back on again now.

I know same here !!!

You think they'd show the Chatrier court with one of the picks of the rd1 matches.

Good that Andy held, I'm so used to him getting broken in his 1st service game in recent weeks !!!

I wonder why he doesn't elect to receive first as he seems a bit of a nervy starter.

Baggy has restarted, hopefully they'll switch to Muzza once Baggy has won set 2.

I thought he usually did, that was something he did every time at Queens and Wimbledon when he won the toss. Maybe his opponents have noticed and so make him serve first?

Hingis wasn't really tested. Raymond has a great backhand slice and some good drop shots which ocasionally troubled Martina but on the whole Raymond was much too inconsistent and didn't return well at all. Martina was hitting with power and a lot of accuracy which was too much for the veteran.

From what I've heard/seen Andy's won the toss and elected to serve first a lot of times It's weird as he usually takes a while to get into the set

Mkk posted the link in the 'french open discussion' thread in General Discussion, near the end of the first page. It's very good. BUT, is still Baghdatis in the third set

I've only got the BBC Sport radio commentary here.


Seems like a pretty good start by Andy!
