Venus will beat her easily.

Lopez is playing like ass now
It absorbs sweat well, however, from my experience with it a few years ago, it begins to tear pretty quickly. Good choice if your racquet slips though, that's irritating.
So Jo-Roger in the final. I wonder if any player has already beaten Djokovic, Murray and Federer in a single tournament. Some people will probably eat crow here in France, Tsonga was often criticized since he switched coaches.

correct about everything
federer to lose another big final, third set tie-break.

Hope Venus pulls this out. Would be an amazing accomplishment after the last couple years.

Venus down a set and a break. She needs to turn it around quickly

Kinda suspected that this would happen.
That wouldn't surprise anyone. Federer hasn't won a big tournament since Cincy 2012. Four finals since then (Rome 2013, Wimbledon, Indian Wells and Montecarlo this year), zero titles.
I would love to see him winning, but it's going to be a really tough match.
I jinxed her
That's why I haven't said anything lol :'(

Agnes is probably on a contact high from Serena getting eliminated. Thus increasing her title chances from the 0% that they would have been.
Playing an aggressive power-hitter one day, and then having to play a completely different player the next (a no-pace pusher). I feel for Venus. I was playing an identical opponent yesterday. Points are gonna be super long because you have to CREATE the point. You basically have to hit clean winners because they aren't gonna miss.
But since Venus is so much older, I don't think engaging in long rallies will do her any favors anyway.
I used to use this....until I got to Florida which magnified my propensity to sweat.

Wilson Pro Overgrip, IMO the best overgrip

Praying Tsonga wins this. Would feel a bit bitter if he takes out Djokovic and Murray and yet doesn't get the title, especially after Fed's cakewalk draw.

Tsonga with the clutch break to win the set

Incidentally, Tsonga's run here will be crazy if he wins. Possibly the second best Masters run of all time in terms of quality of opponents defeated, after Nalbandian's Madrid 2007 (beat Djokovic, Federer and Nadal on the trot).
EDIT: Federer has 3 points on Tsonga's first serve the entire match. That's just painful.

Fed is struggling with all facets of his game today.

Tsonga's mis-use of his challenges may have rattled him
Doesn't matter, he doesn't need them to win

Federer is getting so angry it's a bit uncomfortable. No need to shout out the crowd, they're not the guys at Madrid.
I thought it was Tsonga that yelled at the crowd? Maybe I missed it.

They might both be doing it. Tsonga was definitely getting cross earlier, but I may have missed it.

Tsonga was the one who yelled "Shut up!" at the crowd during Feds last service game, just to clarify

Fed's net game is the only thing that's kept him from being *completely* steamrolled.

That last shot to take it to the tiebreak was beautiful. Don't often see Federer making those any more.
John Dunbar
