The '''2008 French Open''' was a [[tennis]] tournament played on [[Clay court|outdoor clay courts]]. It was the 107th edition of the [[French Open]], and the second [[Grand Slam (tennis)|Grand Slam]] event of the year. It took place at the [[Stade Roland Garros]] in Paris, France, from 25 May until 8 June 2008.<br />
<br />
[[Justine Henin]] did not defend her trophy due to her retirement from the sport on May 14. [[Ana Ivanovic]], the runner-up to Henin in [[2007 French Open|2007]], won the Women's Singles. On the men's side, [[Rafael Nadal]] won the Men's Singles, and equalled [[Björn Borg]]'s record of four consecutive French Open titles in the [[Open Era]]. Other competitions included men and women's doubles, junior singles and doubles as well as wheelchair and 'veteran' competitions.<br />
<br />
The 2008 edition marked the first time in the Open Era no American man or woman reached the singles' quarterfinals at Roland Garros.<br />

==Notable stories==<br />
<br />
===Justine Henin's retirement===<br />
On May 14, 2008, less than two weeks before the start of the 2008 French Open, defending champion and [[List of WTA number 1 ranked players|world No. 1]] [[Justine Henin]], announced in a press conference her immediate retirement from the sport. Four-time winner in [[French Open|Roland-Garros]], where she defeated [[Kim Clijsters]] in [[2003 French Open|2003]], [[Mary Pierce]] in [[2005 French Open|2005]], [[Svetlana Kuznetsova]] in [[2006 French Open|2006]] and [[Ana Ivanovic]] in [[2007 French Open|2007]], Henin became the first player, at 25, to stop her career while holding the number one rank. Despite undergoing a poor run in the [[2008 WTA Tour|2008 season]], Henin was still considered to be a strong favourite for the [[French Open]] crown. Her retirement left [[Serena Williams]], the [[2002 French Open|2002]] champion and the tournament favourite this year, as the only former French Open champion remaining in the women's draw, and allowed [[Women's Tennis Association|WTA]] world No. 2 [[Maria Sharapova]] to be installed as the new world No. 1, and become the top seed for the tournament.<ref name="Henin Retires From Sony Ericsson WTA Tour">{{cite news|author=sonyericssonwtatour.com |title=Henin Retires From Sony Ericsson WTA Tour |url=http://www.sonyericssonwtatour.com/3/newsroom/stories/?ContentID=2255 |date=2008-05-14 |access-date=2008-06-11 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080519144639/http://www.sonyericssonwtatour.com/3/newsroom/stories/?ContentID=2255 |archive-date=2008-05-19 }}</ref><ref name="Henin">{{cite news|author=BBC Sport|title=Henin announces shock retirement| url =http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/tennis/7399963.stm|date =2008-05-14| access-date =2008-06-11|publisher=BBC News}}</ref> Henin's last match was against [[Dinara Safina]], who went on to have a successful French Open, reaching the final, where she was beaten by Ana Ivanovic.

===The Williams' sisters performance===<br />
[[Image:Katarina Srebotnik at the 2010 US Open 01.jpg|thumb|right|200px|[[Katarina Srebotnik]] knocked [[Serena Williams]] out of the French Open in the third round. Her triumph ensured that there would be a new champion in 2008.]]<br />
This tournament saw the worst performance by any of the [[Williams sisters]] at a Grand Slam tournament since the [[2006 Australian Open]].<ref name="Williams-sisters-beaten">[https://www.espn.com/sports/tennis/french08/columns/story?columnist=garber_greg&id=3418434 Williams sisters sent packing -- on the same day - Tennis - ESPN]</ref><br />
<br />
[[Serena Williams]], the only former French Open champion left in the draw, was stunned in the third round by [[Katarina Srebotnik]], ensuring that there would be a new champion this year.<ref name="Serena-defeated"/> Williams had never previously lost to Srebotnik in four previous attempts, and had defeated her in the second round of the [[2001 French Open]] and as recently as in the third round of the [[2008 Family Circle Cup]], where she won the title as part of a seventeen-match winning streak compiled between February and May. Her third round exit was her worst performance at the tournament since 1999, when she also fell in the third round. Two [[ESPN]] experts had touted Serena Williams as the pre-tournament favourite; those same two experts also predicted that [[Ana Ivanovic]], the [[2007 French Open|2007]] runner-up whom Serena Williams would have met in the quarter-finals, would make an early exit,<ref>[https://www.espn.com/sports/tennis/french08/news/story?id=3409403 Who will win the French Open women's title? - Tennis - ESPN]</ref><ref>[https://www.espn.com/sports/tennis/french08/news/story?id=3409577 Devoid of Justine Henin, Williams, Sharapova looking to make their mark - Tennis - ESPN]</ref> when, in fact, the exact opposite occurred and Ivanovic won the championship amidst a form slump which saw her suffer early defeats in [[2008 Sony Ericsson Open|Miami]] and [[2008 Italian Open (tennis)|Rome]].<ref>[https://www.espn.com/sports/tennis/french08/columns/story?columnist=garber_greg&id=3430890 Maturation, confidence evident in Ivanovic's title run - Tennis - ESPN]</ref> Williams had said prior to the French Open that she had "enjoyed her best preparation since winning the event in 2002"; entering the tournament, she had won 23 matches and lost just two (to [[Jelena Janković]] at the [[2008 Australian Open|Australian Open]] and [[Dinara Safina]] in [[2008 German Open (tennis)|Berlin]]) for the season.<br />
<br />
On the same day as Serena Williams' defeat, older sister [[Venus Williams]] was upset by world No. 26 [[Flavia Pennetta]], who had never previously advanced past the fourth round of the French Open, in the third round,<ref>[http://www.abc.net.au/news/2008-05-31/nadal-djokovic-on-course-in-paris/2454798 Nadal, Djokovic on course in Paris - ABC News (Australian Broadcasting Corporation)]</ref> adding to her recent history of early exits at the French Open. This marked the first time since the [[2004 French Open]] that both the Williams sisters were defeated within 24 hours of each other;<ref name="Williams-sisters-beaten"/> on that occasion, both were defeated in the quarter-finals by [[Jennifer Capriati]] and [[Anastasia Myskina]], who then went on to contest a semi-final between each other.<ref>[http://www.abc.net.au/news/2004-06-02/williams-sisters-sent-packing-from-paris/1985704 Williams sisters sent packing from Paris - ABC News (Australian Broadcasting Corporation)]</ref><br />

===Guga's goodbye===<br />
The 2008 French Open saw the last appearance on the [[Association of Tennis Professionals|ATP Tour]] of [[List of ATP number 1 ranked players|former world No. 1]] [[Gustavo Kuerten|Gustavo "Guga" Kuerten]].<ref name="Guga bids a champion's goodbye">{{cite news|author=Matthew Cronin|title=Guga bids a champion's goodbye| url =http://www.rolandgarros.com/en_FR/news/articles/2008-05-25/200805251211738989328.html|date =2008-05-28| access-date =2008-05-31 |archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20080527190544/http://www.rolandgarros.com/en_FR/news/articles/2008-05-25/200805251211738989328.html |archive-date = 2008-05-27}}</ref> The 31-year-old Brazilian champion, had been awarded a wild card to play his final tournament in [[French Open|Roland-Garros]], where he won his three [[Grand Slam (tennis)|Grand Slam]] titles in [[1997 French Open|1997]], [[2000 French Open|2000]] and [[2001 French Open|2001]]. Kuerten played his first round, and final singles match on [[Court Philippe Chatrier]] against eighteenth-seeded [[Paul-Henri Mathieu]]. Kuerten conceded the victory in straight sets after a little less than two hours on the court. A ceremony followed, where Kuerten was awarded a trophy encasing the multiple layers of the French Open's clay courts. Kuerten played his last match in the men's doubles with [[Sébastien Grosjean]]. The pair was defeated after three sets by [[Florin Mergea]] & [[Horia Tecău]] on the score of 5–7, 6–3, 6–1, ending the very final appearance of Gustavo Kuerten on the tour.<br />
<br />
===Prix Orange, Citron & Bourgeon===<br />
As each year since 1981, three trophies are awarded during the tournament to the players of [[French Open|Roland-Garros]]: the Prix Orange (Orange Prize), awarded by the public to the player with the most sportsmanship, the Prix Citron (Lemon Prize), awarded by both the public and a journalists' association to the player with the strongest nature, and the Prix Bourgeon (Bud Prize), given by the journalists only to the most improved player of the year. In 2008, the Prix Orange was received, for the fourth year in a row, by [[Roger Federer]], who came first of a tally with five choices, followed by [[Rafael Nadal]], [[Gustavo Kuerten]], [[James Blake (tennis)|James Blake]] and [[Carlos Moyá]]. The Prix Citron was obtained by [[Fabrice Santoro]], who preceded [[Novak Djokovic]], [[Maria Sharapova]], [[Serena Williams]] and [[Juan Carlos Ferrero]] in the votes. The Prix Bourgeon was given by the press to [[Alizé Cornet]], ahead of [[Janko Tipsarević]] and [[Ernests Gulbis]]. [[Gustavo Kuerten]], already the recipient of three Prix Orange in 1998, 2002, and 2004, was presented a special ten-year prize for fair-play, in honor of his career and his successes at the [[French Open]].<ref>{{Cite web |url=http://www.orange-citrontv.org/ |title=Prix Orange, Citron & Bourgeon website |access-date=2008-06-03 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070531222414/http://www.orange-citrontv.org/ |archive-date=2007-05-31 |url-status=dead }}</ref><br />

In the men's field, all eyes were turned to a clash between [[Paul-Henri Mathieu]] and [[List of ATP number 1 ranked players|former No. 1]], [[1997 French Open|1997]], [[2000 French Open|2000]] and [[2001 French Open]] champion [[Gustavo Kuerten]], which saw the Frenchman winning 6–3, 6–4, 6–2, marking the closure of Kuerten's career. Third-seeded [[Novak Djokovic]] came back from a one set deficit to [[Denis Gremelmayr]] to make it into the second round. [[James Blake (tennis)|James Blake]], [[David Nalbandian]] and [[Nicolás Almagro]] proceeded to the next round in straight sets, while [[Andy Murray]] needed almost three hours to beat French wild card [[Jonathan Eysseric]] 6–2, 1–6, 4–6, 6–0, 6–2.

The shock of the day came as French No. 1 [[Richard Gasquet]] announced his withdrawal a few hours before his scheduled match to compatriot [[Florent Serra]], due to a knee injury.

Both players received their trophies from the hands of former world No. 1 and [[2003 French Open|2003]], [[2005 French Open|2005]], [[2006 French Open|2006]], and [[2007 French Open]] champion [[Justine Henin]] in the awards ceremony that followed, which crowned Ivanovic, a first-time [[Grand Slam (tennis)|Grand Slam]] winner, as the new [[List of French Open Women's Singles champions|Roland-Garros women's singles champion]].<ref name="Ivanovic overcomes demons to clinch first Grand Slam title">{{cite news|author=Drew Lilley|title=Ivanovic overcomes demons to clinch first Grand Slam title| url =http://www.rolandgarros.com/en_FR/news/articles/2008-06-07/200806071212852791312.html|date =2008-06-07| access-date =2008-06-07 |archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20080609175725/http://www.rolandgarros.com/en_FR/news/articles/2008-06-07/200806071212852791312.html |archive-date = 2008-06-09}}</ref><ref name="Ivanovic Defeats Safina for First Grand Slam Title">{{cite news|author=sonyericssonwtatour.com |title=Ivanovic Defeats Safina for First Grand Slam Title |url=http://www.sonyericssonwtatour.com/1/newsroom/stories/?ContentID=2323 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200724144317/http://www.sonyericssonwtatour.com/1/newsroom/stories/?ContentID=2323 |url-status=dead |archive-date=July 24, 2020 |date=2008-06-07 |access-date=2008-06-07 }}</ref> Ivanovic became the first Serbian winner of a Grand Slam women's singles title, and the second Serbian overall after [[Novak Djokovic]]'s win at the [[2008 Australian Open]].

The men's doubles final featured second seeds Canadian [[Daniel Nestor]], a nine-time [[Grand Slam (tennis)|Grand Slam]] doubles finalist, winner of the [[2007 French Open]] with [[Mark Knowles]], & Serbian [[Nenad Zimonjić]], a two-time doubles final runner-up in [[The Championships, Wimbledon|Wimbledon]], and unseeded South American duo, composed of Uruguayan [[Pablo Cuevas]], No. 50 in the doubles rankings, & Peruvian [[Luis Horna]], No. 43 in the doubles rankings, on their first ever [[Grand Slam (tennis)|Grand Slam]] final appearance separately and together. The unseeded South Americans completely dominated the seasoned champions during the final, breaking them twice in each set, never losing their serve themselves, to crush Nestor & Zimonjic in only fifty-six minutes, on the score of 6–2, 6–3, and win their first doubles title together. [[Pablo Cuevas]] & [[Luis Horna]] knocked out four seeded teams, [[Arnaud Clément]] & [[Michaël Llodra]], [[Lukáš Dlouhý]] & [[Leander Paes]], world No. 1 pair [[Bob Bryan|Bob]] & [[Mike Bryan]], and ultimately [[Daniel Nestor]] & [[Nenad Zimonjić]] on their way to becoming the first South American team to win a Men's Doubles [[Grand Slam (tennis)|Grand Slam]] title, and the [[List of French Open Men's Doubles champions|2008 French Open men's doubles champions]].<ref name="Horna/Cuevas Surprise Roland Garros Champions">{{cite news|author=atptennis.com|title=Horna/Cuevas Surprise Roland Garros Champions| url =http://www.atptennis.com/3/en/players/doubles/2008news/rolandgarros8.asp|date =2008-06-06| access-date =2008-06-07}} {{Dead link|date=October 2010|bot=H3llBot}}</ref><br />

===Day 15===<br />
The men's singles final took place at 15:00 ([[UTC+2]]) on the [[Court Philippe Chatrier|Philippe Chatrier Central Court]], and featured, for the third straight year after [[2006 French Open|2006]] and [[2007 French Open|2007]], the world No. 1 and holder of twelve [[Grand Slam (tennis)|Grand Slam]] titles, [[Roger Federer]], and ATP No. 2 [[Rafael Nadal]], the winner in [[French Open|Roland-Garros]] since [[2005 French Open|2005]]. Federer decided to serve after being given the choice, but the Spaniard immediately attacked the Swiss' serve, and broke him, winning his own service game to quickly open a 2–0 lead. Though Federer won his following serve, he was not able in the rest of the set to convert the few break points he had on Nadal's serve, or win his own service games, allowing the Spaniard to close the first set in thirty-two minutes, on the score of 6–1. Despite being broken in the beginning of the second set, Federer started to fight back, as he finally took Nadal's serve, came back to 2–2, and held to 3–3. After a long game on Federer's serve, Nadal finally broke once more, and rapidly finished the set on the score of 6–3, after forty-nine minutes. There was no competition in what would become the final set as Nadal left no chances to Federer, and the Swiss was not able to find a second breath to start a comeback, not winning any game in the twenty-seven minutes set, and suffering a [[bagel (tennis)|bagel]] for the first time in a [[Grand Slam (tennis)|Grand Slam]] since a [[1999 French Open – Men's singles#Section 6|1999 Roland-Garros first round loss]] to [[Pat Rafter]].<ref name="Nadal storms to fourth French Open">{{cite news|author=BBC Sport|title=Nadal storms to fourth French Open| url =http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/tennis/7441733.stm|date =2008-06-08| access-date =2008-06-08|publisher=BBC News}}</ref> Particularly relevant to the outcome of their meeting were Federer's thirty-five unforced errors to Nadal's seven during the brief match which never allowed him to gain a foothold.

The '''2006 [[French Open]]''' was a [[tennis]] tournament that took place on the outdoor [[clay court]]s at the [[Stade Roland Garros]] in Paris, France from 28 May to 11 June 2006. It was the 105th staging of the [[French Open]], and the second of the four [[Grand Slam (tennis)|Grand Slam]] tennis events of 2006. This edition made history as it became the first Grand Slam tournament to start on a Sunday. It was the 2nd time since 1985 that all top 4 seeds reached the semifinals in the men's singles of a Grand Slam tournament. This did not happen again until the same tournament five years later. Both defending champions, [[Rafael Nadal]] and [[Justine Henin|Justine Henin-Hardenne]], retained their titles.<br />

The '''2005 French Open''' was the 104th edition of the tournament.<br />
<br />
On the men's side, [[Rafael Nadal]], seeded fourth at his first French Open,<ref name="Hewittinjured">[http://www.abc.net.au/news/2005-05-20/rib-keeps-hewitt-out-of-the-french-open/1574390 Rib keeps Hewitt out of the French Open - ABC News (Australian Broadcasting Corporation)]</ref> was a strong favorite to win the singles title after winning the [[2005 Monte Carlo Masters – Singles|Monte Carlo]] and [[2005 Italian Open – Men's singles|Rome Masters]]. [[Guillermo Coria]], the defending finalist and 2005 runner-up to Nadal in both Monaco and Rome, called Nadal the best [[clay-court]] player in the world prior to the tournament. After defeating top seed [[Roger Federer]] in the semifinals, Nadal defeated [[Mariano Puerta]] to claim his first French Open title, and the first of four won consecutively from 2005 until 2008. Nadal would go on to win the tournament a record 14 times.<ref>{{Cite news | url=https://www.bbc.com/sport/tennis/48574263 | title=Nadal wins 12th French Open title | publisher=BBC Sport }}</ref><br />
<br />
In the women's draw, [[Justine Henin-Hardenne]] won her second French Open title, defeating [[2000 French Open|2000]] champion [[Mary Pierce]] in the final in just 62 minutes.<ref>[http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/tennis/4610083.stm BBC SPORT | Tennis | Tearful Pierce rues poor display]</ref> 2005 marked the first of three consecutive years in which Henin would win the women's singles title.<br />
<br />
[[Gastón Gaudio]] and [[Anastasia Myskina]] were unsuccessful in defending their 2004 titles, Gaudio losing in the fourth round and Myskina being upset in the first round. This tournament was also notable for the rise of future French Open champion [[Ana Ivanovic]], who upset the third seed [[Amélie Mauresmo]] in the third round,<ref>{{cite web|url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/tennis/4590387.stm |title=Serbian starlet shocks Mauresmo |publisher=BBC News |date=28 May 2005 |access-date=15 September 2012}}</ref> before going on to defeat another future champion in [[Francesca Schiavone]] on her way to her first major quarterfinal appearance in just her second major tournament.<ref>{{cite news|url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/low/tennis/4592641.stm |title=Brave Henin-Hardenne battles on |publisher=BBC News |date=30 May 2005 |access-date=15 September 2012}}</ref><br />

<br />
The '''2004 French Open''' was the 103rd edition of the tournament.<br />
<br />
On the men's side, [[Gastón Gaudio]] became the first men's [[Grand Slam (tennis)#Tournaments|major]] champion in the [[Open Era]] to save two championship points in the final. Gaudio also became the first Argentine man since [[Guillermo Vilas]] in 1979 to win a major. Fellow Argentine [[Guillermo Coria]], widely regarded as the favourite and the world's best [[clay court]] player coming into the tournament, was seeded 3rd for the event, whereas Gaudio was unseeded (ranked 44th<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.tennis.com/pro-game/2014/05/death-dirt/51496/#.U39u9GdOVph|title=Deux: Death on the Dirt}}</ref>). After winning the first two sets convincingly, Coria began suffering from leg [[cramp]]s. Gaudio won the next two sets; however, Coria came back and was up two breaks of serve in the final set. Coria had two match points at 6–5 before Gaudio prevailed 0–6, 3–6, 6–4, 6–1, 8–6. Gaudio also became the first man to win a Grand Slam tournament final after being [[bagel (tennis)|bagelled]], which occurred in the first set. The overall tournament was noted for the performance of Argentine players – in addition to the two finalists, there were a semifinalist ([[David Nalbandian]]) and a quarterfinalist ([[Juan Ignacio Chela]]). It was also highlighted by a first round match between [[Fabrice Santoro]] and [[Arnaud Clément]], lasting 6 hours and 33 minutes and ending in Clement's defeat 6–4, 6–3, 6–7, 3–6, 16–14, setting a new record for the longest singles match in the [[History of tennis#Open era|Open Era]],<ref>{{cite news |title=Roland Garros Flashback: Santoro Wins Longest Match In History |url=https://www.atptour.com/en/news/flashback-santoro-clement-roland-garros-2004 |access-date=14 June 2020 |publisher=ATP Tour |date=26 May 2020}}</ref> which would stand until [[Isner&ndash;Mahut match at the 2010 Wimbledon Championships|Wimbledon 2010]]. It was also the last major to feature neither [[Roger Federer]] nor [[Rafael Nadal]] in the semifinals until the [[2012 US Open (tennis)|2012 US Open]].<ref>* {{cite news |last=McCarvel|first=Nicholas |date=9 September 2012 |title=A U.S. Open Final Without Nadal & Federer?

<br />
In the women's draw, [[Anastasia Myskina]] became first Russian woman to win a major title. The next two majors were also won by Russian women ([[Maria Sharapova]] at [[2004 Wimbledon Championships|Wimbledon]] and [[Svetlana Kuznetsova]] at the [[2004 US Open (tennis)|US Open]]). She also became the first French Open women's champion after saving a match point en route to the title (against Svetlana Kuznetsova in the fourth round).<br />
<br />
In the mixed doubles, French players [[Tatiana Golovin]] and [[Richard Gasquet]] (aged 16 and 17 respectively) won the tournament after entering as [[wild card (tennis)|wildcard]]s. France also saw success in the boys' singles, where [[Gaël Monfils]] won.<br />
<br />
[[Juan Carlos Ferrero]] and [[Justine Henin|Justine Henin-Hardenne]] were both unsuccessful in defending their 2003 titles; both being eliminated in the second round. In Henin's case, her early exit would be the last time a top seed lost within the first two rounds of any major until [[Ana Ivanovic]] lost in the second round of the [[2008 US Open (tennis)|2008 US Open]]. Henin's loss to [[Tathiana Garbin]] in the second round was her only defeat at the tournament between [[2003 French Open|2003]] and [[2009 French Open|2009]] (not playing in 2008 and 2009).<br />

The '''1989 French Open''' was a [[tennis]] tournament that took place on the outdoor [[clay court]]s at the [[Stade Roland Garros]] in Paris, France. The tournament was held from 29 May until 11 June. It was the 88th staging of the [[French Open]], and the second [[Grand Slam (tennis)|Grand Slam]] tennis event of 1989.<br />
<br />
For the first time in French Open history the Singles championships were won by two teenagers – [[Michael Chang]] (17 years, 3 months) and [[Arantxa Sánchez Vicario|Arantxa Sánchez]] (17 years, 6 months). Chang still holds the record for youngest ever male Grand Slam singles title winner. He gained admirers for his audacious style of play and battling qualities. [[Arantxa Sánchez Vicario|Sánchez]] broke the record for the youngest champion at Roland Garros, a record bettered the following year by [[Monica Seles]] (16 years, 6 months).<br />
<br />
[[Arantxa Sánchez Vicario|Sánchez]]'s victory made her only the seventh woman to win a [[Grand Slam (tennis)|Grand Slam]] tournament in the 1980s; the others being [[Martina Navratilova]], [[Chris Evert]], [[Tracy Austin]], [[Evonne Goolagong]], [[Steffi Graf]] and [[Hana Mandlíková]].<br />
<br />
[[Steffi Graf]]'s loss in the women's final was her only [[Grand Slam (tennis)|Grand Slam]] defeat in two years. She won eight of the nine [[Grand Slam (tennis)|Grand Slam]] tournaments from the 1988 [[Australian Open]] – 1990 [[Australian Open]]. This prevented her from completing a second consecutive Grand Slam and was her 9th Grand Slam final on her record run of 13 finals.<br />
<br />
One notable débutant was [[Monica Seles]], appearing in her first Grand Slam. She reached the semi-finals without being seeded, and aged only 15. [[Jennifer Capriati]] also made her presence felt, becoming the youngest winner (13 years, 2 months) of the girls' singles title – this record was broken in 1993 by [[Martina Hingis]], aged 12.<br />
