Roland Garros, Men's French Open 2026 - Grand Slam

[the AntiPusher]

Cobolli is a good clay court player, has only lost 1 set to make QFs, so I am not writing him off

You dont Like FAA, you dont Like Sascha here or there..You just like Italians EVERWHERE jajaja

I Hate Zverev correct, I never said I didnt like FAA at all, I have to suffer some Italians like Musetti who does my head in LOL!

He has defeated Felix on hardcourts twice two years ago.

I am not taking any notice of that, I am more concerned with their clay court play now

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Fonseca v Mensik gets the night match tomorrow on Chatrier
Zverev v Jodar in the day on Chatrier

 

[Murat B.]

Felix is fine. He has improved his consistency a lot in the last two years, and his mental game. He plays up to his standards and ranking, he makes it to the final.
Remember he is one of only 3 players to take Rafa to a 5 setter here. He knows what he is doing.

Felix is not playing to the level when he took Rafa to 5 sets, at present he has struggled earlier against lower ranked players
Happy for Felix he has made the QFs and if he gets a chance to knock off Zverev I might turn Canadian

Maybe not so far in this tournament , but Felix is actually a better player now than when he took Rafa to 5 sets. Like I said, he is more consistent, way better shot selection. His next match will tell a lot to see if he can step it up a bit. Today was a good day for him too.

If Felix can reach that level he did vs Rafa that day, he has a very good chance to make to Championship weekend and Sunday.

If he makes the final and beats Zverev I will turn Canadian

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Anyway we are counting our chickens Zverev may not make the final,. he has had a easy draw and hasnt been pushed, it may well back fire on him as we know when pushed he is a Mental Midget

 

[MargaretMcAleer]
