2014 Roland Garros

[Alesana]

Oh really, will she be right for Wimbledon?

Hopefully not, one screecher in Sharapova is bad enough

 

[Amazing Bombers]

Thanasi and Sam both through to the last round of qualifying makes a nice change.

 

[Chris_2593]

Hopefully we can get one through. I think Kokkinakis can.

 

[Manimal_Dunstan]

Will be interesting to see who the Aussies draw tonight, hopefully they all snag winnable first up games.

 

[Manimal_Dunstan]

Marinko Matosevic V Dustin Brown
Bernard Tomic V Richard Gasquet
Lleyton Hewitt V Carlos Berocq
Nick Kygrious V Milos Raonic

 

[Kaan]

In the unlikely event of Tomic beating Gasquet and Hewitt winning his game, they'll play each other in the second round.

 

[Manimal_Dunstan]

Casey Dellacqua V Lourdes Lino-Dominquez
Sam Stosur V Monica Puig
Ashleigh Barty V Alize Cornet

 

[matt_897]

Marinko Matosevic V Dustin Brown
Bernard Tomic V Richard Gasquet
Lleyton Hewitt V Carlos Berocq
Nick Kygrious V Milos Raonic

Like how you forgot Ebden, because he is going to lose anyway, against Cuevas

Matosevic is the winnable one, let's see if he can actually man up. Hewitt's match will be a slog and could go either way. Kyrgios has a fun match, real battle of firepower but obivously will be the big factor here. Tomic's only hope is Gasquet comes out half injured and maybe something happens.

Sorry Matt, forgot all about Ebden was meant to put him in.

Good news for Ducky

Congrats are in order for @JamesDuck21, who qualifies for consecutive French Opens due to Ricardas Bernakis giving him a walkover! #RG14

 

[pepsi]

Nasal shouldn't have too much trouble getting through to the semis. Hopefully Novak can comp,tee his career slam here.

Sharapova for mine on the women's side.

Kokkinakis up a set, hopefully we can get our 7th player in the main draw. When's the last time that happened?

Loses the second set in a tie break.

Does anyone know if it is possible to get internet live streaming of the French Open in Adelaide (free or pay subscription)?

Also I saw a site called www.watchlivetennis.org offering $12.95pa subscription but it looks a bit dodgy - anyone know of it?

 

[Manimal_Dunstan]

Kokkinakis beaten. 6-4, 6-7, 5-7

 

[matt_897]

Groth lost in straight. Heartbreaking one for Kokkansis, the results are certainly improving. Ducky qualifying for another slam

That is a dodgy site, they would have the same streams you can get for free. There really isn't a great option apart from trying a VPN on tennis channel's streaming

[vaughany]

Matosevic can beat Brown

Anyone know when day one schedule is released? Must be soon

Hopefully get some aussies playing at 11am so it is on 7pm our time

thanks for reminding me. Forgot it starts tomorrow. Love the extra day of tennis at rg

 

[Manimal_Dunstan]

Would be good to see Marinko finally break that round 1 ducks at grand slams.

 

[pepsi]

Rogowska is playing the final round of qualifying tonight, hope she can make it through.

Schedule for tomorrow should be out at some point today.

For marinko it would be great if he could finally get a slam win. But he was bloody embarrassing at the AO this year. Did woodforde give him the flick after that?

 

[Chris_2593]

Gasquet is in doubt. Said he would wait until Saturday night to decide if he will play or not. So could be good for Tomic. Marinko should really beat Brown he has had a decent clay season.

 

[pepsi]

Schedule is out for tomorrow:
http://www.rolandgarros.com/en_FR/scores/schedule/index.html

Kyrgios is up on court first against Raonic on Suzanne Lenglen.

Fed, Tsonga and Serena on Philippe Chartrier. Venus vs Bencic will be interesting, 18 year old vs 34 year old.

 

[vaughany]

So kokkinakis just misses out on qualifying?

Fox sports plus channel to show the kygrios v raonic match surely?

Better get some sleep tonight folks two weeks of sleepless nights coming up!

Unfortunately he lost a tight 3 setter, had a chance to take the match in the second set as well. Same story for Rogowska tonight also.

Hopefully Fox Sports get choice of court. I am not sure they do, cannot remember what has happened in previous years. If they just get the International feed we will probably only get Chatrier matches. Matt or Chris might remember.
