Reflections: Day 3 of the French Open

Most Exciting Match: Andy Roddick (6) vs. Jarkko Nieminen, 6-2, 4-6, 4-6, 7-6(4), 6-3.

Least Surprising Upset: Kimiko Date Krumm vs. Dinara Safina (9), 3-6, 6-4, 7-5. In light of how she has performed at every single one of her last Grand Slams, we’re sadly not surprised by Safina’s upset at all.

Retirements: Eduardo Schwank (against Blaz Kavcic).

Also … Rafael Nadal won his first round match wearing a nearly half-million dollar watch; Caroline Wozniacki told the fine folks at Roland Garros that the Wayans brothers movie White Chicks is her favorite comedic film; and after his loss to fellow-American Robby Ginepri, Sam Querrey said that he hasn’t been enjoying playing tennis “for a while.”
