Sorry Trig, beat you to it this year but since the name change .............
Not a bad draw for Murray up to the quarters then it changes completely. Wawrinka, Federer, Nadal follow if seeds go to plan.
Results 1 to 30 of 123

What's even more unacceptable is the wrong information!
If seeds go to plan, Murray is due to play Wawrinka (QF), Nadal (SF) and Djokovic (F).
Honestly, you let someone else have a wee bit of responsibility for a change and it goes pear shaped!
PS-Gasquet in the last 16 would be extremely difficult as well if he was to play to his potential, especially on clay.
Also, well done to James Ward for getting through qualifying and becoming the first British man to do that at the French Open in more than 40 years.

Boring results on the tennis today. Coverage is on ITV3 and 4 throughout the tournament for anyone who doesn't know. Weather forecast not good for tomorrow.

Pretty sure he must have been injured as he only won two games in the last two sets.
That's really opened up Murray's quarter now and he might face another match-up against Fabio Fognini now in the quarter finals.

Does anyone know when the schedule of play is drawn?
I'll be there on Tuesday and I'm itching to know who I'll see.

Watched most of the James Ward match today.
Won the 1st set, deservedly so, but the rain delay broke any momentum had and he lost in 4. Put up a good fight though and done well to even reach the 1st round proper imo.PM Awards General Poster of The Year 2015, 2016, 2017. Probably robbed in other years

I just wish Ward would realise that he can live with these guys. There's no way he should be as low down in the rankings as he is. He should definitely be in the top 100 and should be aiming for around top 75 as far as I'm concerned.
Time's getting on now though, with him being 27 now.

Will be there tomorrow but Murray is on the wrong court.
Gutted to not get one of the top top guys.

Murray's on third on Suzanne Lenglen, which should mean he's on around 2:30pm.
Hope you enjoy your day anyway.

Is there not a place to swap tickets for different courts?

Left Simona Halep at 6-0, 2-0 to watch the second set in Heather Watson's match. Turned out to be a good atmosphere.
Ferrer was good but a bit dull, still gutted I got him rather than another top seed.
Ivanovic was good but was another hiding.
Monfils was a great atmosphere with some good tennis.
Saw the last game for Flipkins to win her match and watched Jamie Murray for a wee while too.
The atmosphere for the Lokoli match was nuts throughout. Shame for those that were there that it didn't finish.

Not looking like a good day for the Williams sisters. Venus out and Serena getting humped as well.

Venus Williams losing isn't too much of a surprise as she has a lot of injury and illness problems now.
Serena Williams losing is a whole different matter. She is the top seed and was the defending champion.
Losing her and Li Na opens up the draw a lot.

Obviously it's nice to hear about a David vs Goliath situation but in general you want to see the top players playing each other.
