Roger_Federer

French Open finals would have been perfect if it had been between Roger Federer vs Rafel Nadal.But that is not the case anymore and the match is between Roger Federer and Robin Soderling.If Federer can pull of this it would be remarkable because he would reach the feat what Samparas has achieved. It is not going to be easy with Robin Soderling,but still I keep my fingers crossed and I would like Federer to win.

ROGER FEDERER WINS AGAINST ROBIN SODERLING IN STRAIT SETS : 6-1, 7-6, 6-4. Now Roger Federer has become the legend of Tennis.



Robin Soderling won against the World's No1 Nadal. The 4th round match was intensely fought in which Nadal lost to Soderling.In the semifinals Soderling when a marathon game which lasted for 5 sets against Fernando Gonzalez in which Robin won the first 2 sets and the next to was won by Fernando Gonzalez and in the final set Robin bounced back after trailing 1-4.

It is very hard to predict a winner,but I would like Federer to win it.He such a consistent performer and this would be a real compliment for him.Lets us hope that the Sunday's final is a nail biting one.
