French Open 2017: La Decima for Nadal or Bust


Deja vu in men's tennis continues in the French Open as Rafael Nadal contests his 10th title - La Decima. Earlier this year, Roger Federer shocked everybody in the Australian Open, when he added that grand slam title to his already full cabinet of trophies.

Well, Rafa has to really fight for it because the guy on the other side of the net has a 3-0 win loss record in grand slam finals - and as everyone knows, Stan Wawrinka is the foil that disrupts the dreams of the Big Four (Novak, Roger, Rafa, Andy).

He is the only one (for now) who has really stood up to these four pillars of men's tennis- and I won't be surprised if he pulls it off.

It's going to be lonely though as most of my friends here in FB and in the gym are big Rafa fans, so I'll be the only one quietly cheering for Stan - one of the more outlandish players on the men's tour.
