FRENCH OPEN OBSERVATIONS FROM PARIS, FRANCE BY CHERYL JONES

Rain began in the wee hours of Wednesday morning and it continued most of the day, putting quite a hitch in the plans for quarterfinal play at Roland Garros. An umbrella was the most popular accessory.

GULBIS ENDS FEDERER GRAND SLAM CURSE BY REACHING FRENCH OPEN SEMIS

Before Ernests Gulbis took to court Suzanne Lenglen for quarterfinal action at the French Open on Tuesday, the last eight players who had knocked out Roger Federer in a Grand Slam had lost in the very next round.

UPDATE FROM PARIS @ THE FRENCH OPEN / SHARAPOVA SQUEAKS OUT THE WIN !

Six of the top eight seeds are through to the French Open quarterfinals on the men's side. And the only two that are not--Stan Wawrinka and Roger Federer--have worthy replacements in the form of Gael Monfils and Ernests Gulbis. The result is a blockbuster lineup in the last eight.
