For that special breed of us, the tennis nuts who waited with bated breath for this year’s French Open draw, no more waiting is due. The draw was released today, and the French are indeed cooking up something interesting. 

This is probably going to be one of the toughest draws for the top seeds in a long time. Finally, a draw that delivers on the promising plot lines of the tennis season so far. For fans there is a palpable anxiety in the air.

How will Nadal fare against a resurgent Soderling in the quarter-finals of the French this year?

Federer has a potential clash with David Ferrer in what could unfortunately turn into an exhausting affair for the Swiss Maestro. Will he have anything left for the great beyond?

Most tantalizing, though, should be Djokovic’s misfortune in drawing Del Potro as early as the third round.

This could be a historically exciting French with potentially epic battles across the board. There is more suspense and more mystery surrounding this French because Nadal is slightly less in form than in the past and others are stepping up into peak form.

Upsets in the making? Or a predictable march to the business stages for the top dogs? Is a Nadal-Djokovic final inevitable, or are we in for something more unexpected?

This is going to be the most competitive and most open French since perhaps 2005. Let’s see what the individual quarters look like.
