I know there aren't a lot of tennis fans on CP, but this could be the year that Roger gets that elusive career grand slam. After years of experts saying this was an inevitability, this may actually happen in less then a week. Nada was upset over the weekend in the fourth round leaving this tournament Roger's to lose. And he almost did this morning. He was down two sets to love and roared back to win it in five. Novak was also an early upset.

I think Roger can do it this year. He won a clay tournament just prior to the French Open too, beating Nadal in the finals

Anyone else watching this great tournament?
