World No. 1 men’s tennis player Roger Federer of Switzerland is looking on track for a trip to the 2008 French Open Men’s Finals and is set to play on the third round against Mario Ancic of Croatia.

Meanwhile, World No. 2 Rafael Nadal of Spain may have won his French Open third round match against Jarkko Nieminem of Finland in straight sets, but Rafa Nadal did require some medical treatment on some nasty blisters on his foot. With still a lot of tennis to be played before reaching the finals, it may not be certain if Rafael Nadal will even be fit enough to withstand blisters. After all, blisters need time to heal, and the tennis matches going to the finals will just get harder and harder, and eventually those matches in the French Open will take their toll on the feet of Rafael Nadal. It wouldn’t be a surprise if Rafael Nadal might retire in one of his upcoming matches. Maybe Rafael Nadal might even retire in his French Open Quarterfinal match against fellow Spaniard Fernando Verdasco.

Looking sharp, howevrer, is No. 3 seed Novak Djokovic of Serbia, who is looking to win his 2nd Grand Slam Tournament this year after successfully winning the 2008 Australian Open. Novak Djokovic will have to get past Paul-Henri Mathieu of France in the French Open Men’s Quarterfinals. Definitely, Paul-Henri Mathieu will have the home support of the French crowd which will make it difficult for Novak Djokovic.
