In less than 3 hours the second Grand Slam of 2011 – Roland Garros – will kick off in Paris. Personally it’s my favourite tournament. In my opinion only on clay you truly witness the intensity of professional tennis. Long rallies, lung-bursting sprints, drop-shots, strategic play often accompanied by true drama – remember Michael Chang vs. Ivan Lendl back in 1989? Legendary match.
