Women's Semifinals.............


Justine Henin......12 units..............Justine is the queen of clay. She has an amazing backhand and moves so well around the court. On top of that she has won something like 30 straight games during this French Open. She's amazing on that surface. Her opponet Jelena Jankovic is having the best year of her life and is on her way to becoming a top 3 player. I think on any surface other than clay I would pick Jankovic but since it's clay I'll roll with Justine.


Anna Ivanovic........10 units........2005 belonged to the Belgians, 2006 belonged to the Russians and 2007 belongs to the Serbs. It's tough going against Maria Sharapova but I think Ivanovic has a great shot at winning this match. Both players are tall, have great serves and plenty of power but I think the one thing that seperates them is their movement on clay. Sharapova doesn't slide. I think in order to be one of the best on clay you have to slide. (Unless you're Serena) But Ivanovic is playing out of her mind right now and I think as long as she stays away from making too many unforced errors she has a great shot.
