There were plenty of Friday upsets to keep the punters guessing, as the race for the
Roland Garros titles took unexpected turns. 6th seed Andy Roddick was the highest-profile
casualty. Roddick was never on his game, with a succession of unforced errors setting up
unseeded Teimuraz Gabashvili for the best win of his short career to date.
9th seed David Ferrer also departed the action, going down in straight sets to veteran
Austrian Jurgen Melzer. 14th seed Ivan Ljubicic's challenge went to a premature end at the
hands of Thomaz Bellucci, while Robby Ginepri ended 16th seed Juan Carlos Ferrero's title
ambitions. It could easily have got worse, but Fernando Verdasco managed to overcome
Germany's Philipp Kohlscreiber after a marathon 5-set contest.
On the women' side of the event, Marion Bartoli departed after a straight sets loss to
Shahar Peer. 16th seed Aravane Rezai went down in a marathon to Nadia Petrova.
Lleyton Hewitt, the last Australian in the mens' draw, went down in straight sets to Rafael
Nadal. 7th seed Sam Stosur had a comfortable in to go through to the round of 16, and
Stosur is joined there by Jarmila Groth, after Groth won an all-Australian match against
Anastasia Rodionova.
