“King of Clay” Rafael Nadal won his French Open 2010, fifth French Open Title and seventh Grand Slam by defeating Robin Soderling, who had an extraordinary tournament. He reached final by defeating Top seeded Roger Federer in quaterfinal and Tomas berdych in semifinal. Nadal had a cakewalk through out the tournament by not having dropped a set at this year's tournament. Nadal proved himself why he is “king of clay”. Soderling made his second consecutive French open finals. However, he lost to Nadal and Federer on both occasions. Francesca Schiavone won her first Grand Slam event in women’s singles. Francesca was the first Italian woman in Open Era history to won a Grand Slam event. Nadal topped the ATP ranking by winning the French Open title. Roger Federer knocked out in the Quarterfinal of the French Open 2010. First time since 2004 that Federer hasn’t made it to at least the Semifinals of a Grand Slam tournament. Robin Soderling ends 23 straight Grand Slam semifinals record. Roger Federer can regain his ATP top rank by winning Wimbleton title to tying Pete Sampras‘s career record of 286 week at No.1.
