FRENCH OPEN 2009: Monfils, Venus, Serena, Tsonga Thru To 3rd Round
Gael Monfils, Jo-Wilfried "Le Mome" Tsonga and The Williams Sisters are through to the 3rd round of the French Open.
Venus had to save a match point in her 2nd round match versus Lucie Safarova to win 6-7(5) 6-2 7-5. Serena need nine (count 'em, NINE) match points to win her first round match 6-3, 6-7 (5), 6-4 against Klara Zakopalova.
Roger Federer and Andy Roddick are also into the third round.
But Venus could not survive the 3rd round as she bailed in straight sets.
