(PATRICK KOVARIK/AFP/Getty Images)OMG! World #1 Rafael Nadal has just lost in the 4th Round of the French Open to Robin Soderling, for the first time in 32 consecutive matches in Paris. The 4-time defending champion was attempting to become the first person to win Roland Garros 5 consecutive years; he had never lost at Roland Garros.
In less surprising news, 2008 French Open defending champion Ana Ivanovic lost to Victoria Azarenka.
I won't report the scores, since in the USA, we can not see either of these matches until NBC's coverage starts at 12noon PDT.

No one seems to remember one of Nadal's tightest matches in the last several years was the one that stretched over about 5 days at Wimbledon, against no less than Robin Soderling. Maybe there is something to that...(?)
Who would have thought at this stage of the FO that Tommy Robredo would be the only remaining Spaniard, male or female!!!
it s a huge sad... but then... WIMBLEDON is waiting... Gambarimashoo
