Tennis French Open: Thursdays Results and Todays Preview

Well I said that Safina would have to dig deep if she wanted to beat Kuznetsova, and boy did she did deep. I’m talking about yesterday’s French Open semi final; up to now, Safina has held onto her position in the tournament only after making sensational comebacks from near defeat. Yesterday however, she really found the focus she had saved for crucial times in her games, and played brilliantly throughout.

Kuznetsova never really had a chance, Safina was unstoppable as she beat Kuznetsova 6-3 6-2.

Mean while the Serbians match was fought really hard by both players. In the final set it seemed all over for Ivanovic, as she was a break down, however fought back and brought the game to a thrilling climax and ended up beating Jankovic 4-6 6-3 4-6.

The final is promising to be a real corker, with Ivanovic looking to put an end to Safina’s incredible run. After the final there will be new Grand Slam Champion, and a new world number one.

Today at the French Open

There’s another exciting day ahead of us at the French Open as the men play out their semi finals. We will be watching as Federer plays Monfils and Djokovic plays Nadal.

Federer who may have finally settled into playing on clay after beating Gonzalez on Wednesday is taking on Monfils who dispatched Ferrer from the competition. Federer is a far superior player than Monfils, however at this late stage in the competition, should not expect an easy ride.

The bookies are of course favouring Federer with best odds of 1/10 for a Federer win (available from William Hill), against 7/1 from Sporting Bet on a Monfils victory.

The odds between the other two players in the semi finals today are a little less wide. Nadal as you might expect is the favourite with odds of 1/5 available from many bookies including VC Bet. Whereas Stan James is offering 4/1 on Djokovic to win this match.
