With the way things are going, Samantha Stosur will be the heavy favorite to win the French Open this year. She has the best record of any woman on clay and with her upsets of Justine, Serena, and now Jelena, it will be a very upsetting and tearful loss if she goes down to Francesca Schiavone.
But in tennis, nothing is impossible. Remember Hingis and Martoli?
Stosur will give the Aussies something to cheer about because it has been a very long time since an Australian woman has lifted a trophy at the slam. Even though this is not the Aussie Open, still, it is big.
