Draw has Federer and Nadal Set to clash in Wimbledon 2013 Quarterfinal

Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal haven’t met at a Grand Slam tournament in a year and a half, and haven’t played each other at Wimbledon since Nadal won their classic final in 2008.

Now the two rivals, with a combined 29 major titles and 30 meetings, look likely to play each other in the quarterfinals in Wimbledon.

FEDERER TO PLAY FOR 8 WIMBLEDON TITLES

Until this year’s French Open, no man had won eight titles at the same Grand Slam tournament. Rafael Nadal got No. 8 in Paris, and now Roger Federer will try to match that accomplishment at Wimbledon.

Federer is the defending champion, and he’s as good as it gets on grass...

Let's go ROGER!

Where the legend was born, where he has dominated for the past decade, the most prestigious tournament of them all, Wimbledon is soon to come. Let's go ROGER!

Rafael Nadal wins a record eighth French Open tennis title

Nadal, back after injury-plagued 2012, becomes first man to win one of tennis' Grand Slam tournaments eight times, beating fellow Spaniard David Ferrer 6-3, 6-2, 6-3.

Serena Williams Wins French Open 2013 Title defeating Maria Sharapova In Final

Today was historic for Serena Williams, beating defending champion Maria Sharapova 6-4, 6-4 to win her first French Open title since 2002.

Nadal outlasts Djokovic in epic semi-final at French Open

In the most anticipated men’s match of 2013, Rafael Nadal overcame Novak Djokovic and his “never say die” attitude 6-4, 3-6, 6-1, 6-7 (3), 9-7 to advance to his eighth French Open final. Standing in the way of his eighth title at Roland Garros is David Ferrer, who charged past a surprisingly sluggish Jo-Wilfried Tsonga 6-1, 7-6 (3), 6-2.

Sharapova and Williams Advance to Final

The 2013 French Open will see Maria Sharapova defends the Coupe Suzanne Lenglen against Serena Williams on Saturday.

Williams, not only the best player in the world now and for most of the past decade but among the greatest of all time, is, at 31, in the sort of form that would intimidate a tank, while Sharapova has committed herself to all-out war.

Sharapova concedes nothing to her American rival in willpower, and that is as good a mix as any fan of the women's game could wish for, because, with the exception of Azarenka, there probably was no one else here the past fortnight equipped to give Williams a decent fight.

Sharapova prevails...

Jankovic pushed Sharapova as far as she could before Sharapova prevailed, 0-6, 6-4, 6-3, to advance to the French Open semifinals.
In the semifinal Sharapova plays Azarenka and have a long history, having played 12 times, with Azarenka winning seven.

Roger Federer out of the French Open...

Roger Federer went down at Roland Garros to Jo-Wilfried Tsonga eliminated the major threat for most of the remaining men in the 2013 French Open.

The Frenchman's 7-5, 6-3, 6-3 win over the Swiss legend catapulted him into the semifinals of his country's hallowed tournament for the first time in his career.   With the field trimmed to six, at least four of the men should be at least a little happy to see Tsonga dismiss Federer.

Tsonga's next opponent will be Spanish veteran and clay-court specialist David Ferrer.

Ferrer is a game competitor, and beaten Tsonga two of the three times they've faced off, so his confidence should be high and he should be filled with a renewed sense of hope of reaching his first French Open final.

Roger Federer survives...

Roger Federer was in danger of his earliest exit at a Grand Slam since 2004 before he fought back to beat Gilles Simon over five sets at the French Open.

Federer won the fourth-round encounter 6-1 4-6 2-6 6-2 6-3, extending his run of consecutive Grand Slam quarter-finals to 36 and racking up his 900th career win.

French Open 2013: Maria Sharapova slams Roland Garros for not having Hawk-Eye after suffering bad line call...

Maria Sharapova wants Hawk-Eye used at the French Open just as it is at all the other grand slams after suffering a wrong line call in her third-round clash.

Hawk-Eye’s ball-tracking technology is used at all the slams and Masters-level tournaments, with the exception of those contested on clay courts.   The theory is that the ball leaves a mark when it bounces on clay, allowing the umpire to climb down from his or her chair and adjudicate on contested decisions.   But the system is hardly foolproof.

Sometimes it is a matter of interpretation whether the little oval of displaced clay is touching the line or not.   And the new trend is for outraged players to seek photographic evidence.   The best recent example came from the event in Rome earlier this month, where Viktor Troicki went through a four-minute meltdown over a line call.   See video under Wimbledon 2013 Play Highlights http://youtu.be/165r4mM9edc
