Serena Williams, the favourite to lift the women's singles title at Roland Garros has crashed out in the third round!!! I mentioned in my previous post that the women's draw was unpredictable, but i never thought there would be such a shock...
Serena was defeated by lower ranked Katarina Srebotnik, leaving the women's draw wider than before... Oh, and even her sister Venus Williams is out! Just not the day for the American women...
Based on this weeks performance, Serbian Ana Ivanovic is most probably next in line as the new favourite... Maria Sharapova continues to struggle on clay while Jelena Jankovic hasn't been convincing as well... I have a feeling more upsets will be on their way...
Whatever happens, Roland Garros will be crowning a first time champion here, as Serena Williams was the sole previous champion in this year's draw...
Will it be a repeat of the 2008 Australian Open final where No.1 Maria meets N0.2 Ana???
Only time will tell... =)
