Maria Sharapova, she failed a drug test at the Aussie Open. :o

 

Sounds like it was an unfortunate turn of events, but big big news. Wonder how harsh they'll be on her.

It depends on if they believe her when she says she didn't know it was also called meldonium. :( If she's been taking it for health reasons over the last 10 years I can't see them being too harsh on her though.

Poor Maria, I feel like they will be harsh on her to make an example of her. Hopefully I am wrong.

Wow! That was unexpected news to hear. I'm pretty sure they'll be harsh on her despite what she said in that statement. Big news indeed.

It seems like an honest mistake to me, I hope they don't go too harsh on her to make an example but I fear they will.

Who is this Totto?

 

I forgot to put Sharapova's name, now I'm not the first to start the discussion <_<

Rafael Nadal has equalled the record of most clay-court titles with victory at the Barcelona Open yesterday.

 

 

A very strange way to prepare for a match and win as Serena Williams made herself ill by eating dog food before reaching the quarter-finals of the Italian Open.

 

 

Roger Federer will miss the French Open due to failing to recover in time from a back injury it will be the first Grand Slam he has missed this century.

Who do you think will win the French Open?

 

For UK viewers, coverage will be shown on ITV4 and on Eurosport with both of the finals live on ITV.

 

 

i think murrey wont have a better chance as for the women wide open

I agree this really is Murray's best chance of winning the French to date. Obviously Federer is out & of course Djokovic is the fave but something always seems to go wrong for him here & I can see that run continuing. I myself would actually be all for a Nadal resurgence & an unprecedented 10th French Open.

I really want to back Konta for doing something special here. However I feel like the weight of expectation is now on her and she will probably limp out by the second round.

She limped out in the first round shame that was.

I meant to come back and oops my prediction.

How many more of his nine lives is Murray going to use in his next match?

Regarding Sharapova she has been chosen for the Olympic Team in Rio.

Nadal has pulled out of the French Open, must be the first time ever both him & Federer have done that.

 

If Novak doesn't win it this year then he'll never win it...

Must be gutting for Nadal.

 

A very strange scoreline as Shelby Rogers beat 2-time Wimbeldon champion Petra Kvitova 6-0 6-7 6-0. I don't think I've ever seen that scoreline in my life.

Rain means there will be no play at all today at the French Open. Is it the French where there is no plans to put a roof on the main show court?
