I got to be honest with you, I can't see Federer beating Djokovic, unless he suddenly comes down to earth like the proverbial Icarus. (or was it Daedelus?)

In which case it looks to me like a Nadal V Djoko final, but stranger things have happened, maybe Federer will go into overdrive and have a tournament of his life.

And maybe Murray will realise his potential all of a sudden.

Get your picks, we'll discuss in a forthnight whether I was right or you were wrong.

Thought I'd go with dark red as it's Roland Garros

Graf is greatest Clement is a good pick as an unseeded player to show something here at roland Garros when he is on his variety can throw off the opposition and he usually plays well on home soil in france.

Damn wished I pick Cilic to get knocked out first, what is up with Marin Cilic he has looked so disappointing lately. The kid has so much game I don't know why he has been so disappointing in the last 12 months he looked like he was really making a push about 18 months ago.

Thanks socal. Berdych just looked so out of form going into this FO. Just hasn't found the form he had in 2010. Ljubi had some good form from MC when he lost to Nadal. I am a fan of his game and though he has had a top 5 ranking before it is a shame he has never contested a Grand Slam final.
