The editors of TENNIS Magazine and TENNIS.com weigh in with their predictions on who will be victorious at the 2007 French Open.
Steve Tignor, Executive Editor
"Roger Federer-- I think he turned the corner last week."
"Justine Henin-- She’s still the best on clay and is getting back into form."
Jon Levey, Senior Editor
"Roger Federer-- If he doesn’t do it this year, it probably will never happen."
"Jelena Jankovic-- Seems like Jankovic has got one Slam victory in her career. This one is as wide open as any."
Tony Lance, Associate Editor
"A week ago Rafael Nadal seemed a lock to win his third straight title at Roland Garros, but Roger Federer’s breakthrough win against him on clay in the Hamburg final has boosted his chances considerably. Enough, in fact, to make Federer my pick to win the whole thing."
"Defending champ and three-time winner Justine Henin is the player to beat. Her fitness and will to win should take her through to her fourth title."
David Rosenberg, Photo Editor
"Jankovic-- She’s ready to shed her headcase status."
"Nadal-- He didn’t seem to concerned about losing to Federer. Now that the streak is over he can focus on what really matters."
Sarah Unke, Assistant Editor
"Rafael Nadal-- Sorry Roger, but Rafa doesn’t lose twice on clay in one season. The kid’s got this one covered."
"Serena Williams-- Serena’s up for her second French title and she still has some “doubters” to prove wrong."
Kamakshi Tandon, Online Editor
"Nadal is still the favorite, but..."
"Henin -- On this surface, on this tournament, very few players can currently give her trouble."
