Published June 06, 2012 12:00
The courts of Roland Garros are kept pristine, with the red clay swept and lines brushed clean...
Ballkids have been at the ready for two weeks now, as the world's best players all came to play.
The serve is less of a factor at Roland Garros than at the other Slams, as Klara Zakopalova found.
The Czech lost her serve 12 times but still pushed Maria Sharapova to three before checking out.
Some players, like Sam Stosur, are cool, calm and collected as they march through the draw.
Sara Errani was the same as she completely defied an 0-28 record against Top 10 players on Tuesday.
World No.10 Angelique Kerber became Sara Errani's first - and doubtfully last - Top 10 conquest.
Yaroslava Shvedova was off the map after knee surgery last year, now she is the talk of the world.
The quarterfinals of the French Open wrap up on Wednesday: Maria versus Kaia, Petra versus Slava.
And there's more to come from the clay court Slam, with the semifinals Thursday and final Saturday.
