Okay so Marat is in Rafa's quarter and he'll play a seeded player in the first round...

OMG it's really a bad news... Okay let's see it that way: in the other tournaments he played unseeded players at first rounds and lost so maybe this time with a tough one... Oh i can't even believe myself what i'm writing...

I just checked: Marat leads 2-0 in their head to head, but it was both times on hard. In 2002 Marat won quite easily, but in the DC 2005 it was a really tied match ( 7 6 7 6 1 6 6 7 6 4 ). DAVAI MARAT !!

James Blake, Tommy Haas, Almagro are before Rafa! It's going to be really tough!

I've just seen the draw on the french open site and, to stay positive, i think that if he can manage to win against Gonzalez (okay it woulds be a HUGE thing), he can have a chance to do something because Haas is just coming back from injury for example and there could be other surprises! So i've decided to stay optimistic: Davai Marat !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks Annie !!! It must be a pretty boring job to copy all the draw !!
I'll be optimistic too, as Tommy Robredo said in his blogin Roma: RG is Marat's tournament, so let's keep fingers crossed.

The draw is simply awful, I can´t believe it At least then there´s no big pressure for Marat, the first time for years
