2016 French Open Thread

Men's Draw
Women's Draw
Current Odds
The draws will take place at 4 AM Eastern on Friday the 20th, at which point I will update the OP.
Storylines:
1. This will be Novak Djokovic's 12th French Open appearance, and he is still seeking his 1st title.
2. Rafael Nadal is looking to add to his record of 9 French titles.
Notable absentees:
ATP: Roger Federer, Gael Monfils, Juan Martin Del Potro, Tommy Robredo, Thanasi Kokkinakis, Jerzy Janowicz
WTA: Maria Sharapova (suspended), Belinda Bencic, Flavia Pennetta (retired), Caroline Wozniacki
Fun fact: Stade de Roland Garros was named after Eugène Adrien Roland Georges Garros, who was a French aviator and fighter pilot during WW1. He completed the first solo flight across the Mediterranean Sea, and contributed to the invention of the first forward-firing aircraft machine gun.

There was some Swiss newspaper report that Federer is probably going to withdraw, but Roland Garros recently tweeted him practicing. Fed should not pull the punk move where you wait until the draw is released, then a lucky loser takes the spot. Just pull out now if the back is bad and let Rafa have his four seed.

don't think Novak wins this year.
He has not been protecting his serve that well lately, even in Madrid, which he won anyway.
Monte Carlo/Madrid/Rome have shown holes in his service game and his opponents are attacking it well. Murray really took advantage of Novak not hitting his spots this past Sunday, and Vesely/Belluci have made him pay for it as well.
it has to improve greatly in order for him to get back to the final.
nonetheless, it will be a great betting tournament!

O wow he dumped it in the net. Thought he'd done a great job to get to deuce and save the two breaks.

Double break. About damn time he won this thing. Want to hear what he has to say at the trophy presentation ceremony.
He might surpass his 2011 and 2015 seasons this year, which is crazy
