Last year’s runner up, Roger Federer, is hopeful of losing his 2 year losing streak at the second Grand Slam of the season, the French Open. Federer lost to Rafael Nadal in 2006 and 2007. He says of him, "He is definitely my number one rival." He was awesome in the Wimbledon tennis tournament coverage.

With that being said, Federer also stated that he doesn’t need luck and that he is "good enough on clay." This might be hard to swallow for those interested in French Open tennis tournament news since he lost in January at the Australian Open in the semi-final round. Along with the super-confident attitude, Federer has said that he will not practice again until March, when he competes in Dubai.

We’ll have to wait to see if he finally accomplishes his goal of winning this prominent tennis tournament or if it continues to allude him.
