Well, this is not a definitive list since Serena Williams, Kim Clijsters and Venus Williams did not even compete in any clay tournament this year. This is just based on the points each player gained after joining any of the clay tournaments. Based on this criteria, Petra Kvitova is the player most favored to win this year's French Open. Victoria Azarenka is ranked #2, while Maria Sharapova and Caroline Wozniacki should be semifinal material. To round out the most likely quarterfinalists, they are - Julia Goerges, Li Na, Samantha Stosur and Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova. Last year's French Open champion Francesca Schiavone is ranked #9 while the surprise #10 player is Bethanie Mattek-Sands.
Anyway, the fun begins tomorrow so let's see if they all stand up to the test in Roland Garros.
