Nadal now +250 to win the French

This is getting a little crazy now, c'mon. I know his recent comments. Is he playing possum? Maybe, maybe not. Regardless this guy always ups his game at this stage of any tournament in particular this one. His odds have gone from even money to 250 in this past week. That's a little crazy. 40 point jump yesterday alone. That means they are worried about this Soderling match. I don't know, I suppose Soderling has a shot with these new balls and with how Nadal played against Isner but Sods isn't quite the server Isner is and Nadal has seen plenty of Sods. If Rafa comes out an gives Soderling a beat down those +250 odds will tank I would think. And Djoko better be careful of Fed as Fed will now only give his all in majors.

Federer is very tough to beat 3 out of 5 for anyone including Djoko. I don't know, I realize Djoko is the MAN right now but +250 for Rafa at Roland Garros seems like incredible value....

Yes but imo you also need to consider that Nadal has never had someone standing in his way before like Djoko is now. He's never had a player beat him 4X in a row in finals, on both hard and clay.... Maybe its time for a little mind games for the first time...

I'm with ya on everything you said bro.

On the contrary Nadal is on record saying he wants Agassi's masters title record (which I think he broke or tied recently) and believe me you never want to lose a final to a rival especially in a masters tourney and he lost 4X in row to Djoko. Tennis is a big head to head sport. It's those "bullshit" tournament wins that will have Djoko laying 150 at least to Nadal in the final assuming they both make it. One thing I will say is that I'll be surprised and blown away by Djoko if he wins the French, that would really be something. Shit maybe even I'll go gluten-free after that!
