nadal who?

the 2005 french open came and went by without too much fanfare. i wanted to catch the finals between kitchie rafael nadal of spain and mariano puerta of argentina.

nadal is the new king of clay. he beat top-seed roger federer two days after he turned 19.

now, he is the youngest men's grand slam champion since michael chang won the french open at 17 in 1989.

on the women's side. justin henin-hardenne beat mary pierce. no us players emerged at the semis and quarters and finals of the french open this year.

the wimbledon will be in two weeks.
