Joey O'ConnorNadal & Ivanovic Win French Open

Rafael Nadal & Ana Ivanovic took the titles at the French Open in Paris.
For Nadal it's his 4th straight win there, and for Ivanovic, she gos to the top of the world rankings.
On to Wimbledon next, the biggie!
Nadal has the problem of Federer to contend with, and although the 5 time champion has shown signs of weakening, he was in the final in France, and Nadal will have his work cut out.
No man has gone from the French title to double up with Wimbledon since the legendary Bjorn Borg.
How will Ivanovic get on?
Well, she is world number 1 now, so her confidence will be high, but a lot of women will fancy their chance with the retirement of Justine Henin and the seeming waning of the Williams sisters.
Mind you, we've heard that before havent' we!
