RAFA LOST FOR THE FIRST TIME AT RG

King of clay Rafael Nadal is out of Roland Garros after never losing there. Not many people expected that - probably nobody did. I though it could be a good match since Soderling beat my favorite for this years Roland Garros David Ferrer in previus round. But is still it is hard to believe that it really happened. RAFA IS OUT.

Robin Sodeling caused one of the biggest upsets in tennis world ever beating Nadal at Roland Garros in four sets 6-2, 6-7(2), 6-4. 7-6(2). Number 23 seeded Swede was able to do what many tennis player weren't - he was dominating today at the court. He had 9 aces and no double faults, he had 27 winners from 35 visit at the net. He was playing really good and took number 1 tennis player out. Tennis history changed today.

Rafael Nadal is out - it just sounds unbelivable, so is the second best tennis player on the clay this year Novak Djokovic, after his lost to Philipp Kohlschreiber 4-6,4-6,4-6 yesterday. Does that mean Roland Garros belongs to Roger Federer this year. Can he win and put all 4 Slams under his belt. I sure hope he can but we will have to wait and see if just maybe suprises are over for this years Roland Garros.

I was sad when my favorite players David Ferrer and Juan Carlos Ferrero lost, but now the two tennis players Robin Sodeling and Philipp Kohlschreiber, who defeated them also send home Rafael Nadal and Novak Djokovic. But that is the game of tennis and tennis world that so many fans around the world love. What is next?

But there are for sure some good matches on the menu for day 6 at Roland Garros. On Court Philippe Chatrier number one seed Rafael Nadal and Lleyton Hewitt will be playing. I am hoping for a good match.

Andy Murray and Janko Tipsarevic are tennis names that also promise a cometitive match. My bet is on Tipsarevic here. Or all spanish match on Court 1 between number 8 seed Fernando Verdasco and Nicolas Almagro.

Some other matches on the menu: Nikolay Davydenko : Stanislas Wawrinka, Radek Stepanek : Marin Cilic, Victor Hanescu : Giles Simon, Fernando Verdasco : Josselin Ouanna.

Rolay Garros Day 4

Today was an exciting day of tennis: Tipsarevic, Ferrer, Verdasco, Gulbis, Wawrinka, Massu, Hewitt, and Rafa won today--don't forget Ounna beat Safin(very exciting match....I Loved it all the way to 10-8 in the 5th).

So day 5 at Roland Garros is here already. Number 2 seed Roger Federer will be playing second on the Court Philippe Chatrier against Jose Acasuso. 'Home country' tennis player Gael Monfils will be playing his second round match on Court Philippe Chartier too.

On Court Suzanne Lenglen we will be able to follow number 4 seed Novak Djokovic in his second round match. I think we can expect a good match between argentinian Juan Monaco and french Jo-Wilfried Tsonga.

Number 10 seed Nikolay Davydenko will be playing at Court 1. Another french tennis player Paul-Henri Mathieu will be playing with spaniard Pablo Andujar.

Also in the action: Andy Roddick, Tommy Robredo, Jurgen Melzer, Igor Andreev, Juan Martin Del Potro and my favorite Juan Carlos Ferrero. Not because I am a huge fan of Ferrero and because he already won Roland Garros but i think this can be the match of the day. He is playing german tennis player Philipp Kohlschreiber.

Andy Murray will start second round matches on Court Philippe Chatrier against italian tennis player Potito Starace. Number one Rafael Nadal will step on the court again. He'll be playing Teimuraz Gabashvili as the last match on the Court Suzanne Lenglen. Very popular spanish tennis player Fernando Verdasco will be playing second on court 2 against Philipp Petzschner in his seconds round.

In my opinion match between Feliciano Lopez from Spain and Janko Tipsarevic from Srbia could be one of the best matches today. And also my favorite match of the day, fourth match on court number 7, David Ferrer against Nicolas Kiefer. My fingers are as always crossed for David Ferrer - VAMOS CAMPEON!
