Roland Garros 2009 Day 6 Open Thread

Spanish fans attend the French Open tennis first round match opposing Brazilian player Franco Ferreiro to Spanish player Feliciano Lopez on May 25, 2009 at Roland Garros stadium in Paris. The event, the second Grand Slam tournament of 2009, runs from May 24 to June 7, 2009.

We've reached the third round where the matchups get even more interesting. We've already been treated to three classics so it can only get better from here.

All the matches on Chatrier should be dramatic, though I'm not sure why Miss Siberia is there instead of, say, Venus, who as the No. 3 seed, has yet to play a singles match on center court. Unless, of course, I missed it. Surely someone will correct me if I'm wrong.

The Lenglen matches should also be tight. I'm looking forward to a particular upset sometime in the evening.

I see one other potential upset off the show courts. Tell us what you see.
