Djokovic and Murray, Williams and Muguruza to Square Off in French Open Finals


Pretty much dream match-ups for the men and the women in Paris. Reaching the final completes a career Grand Slam of title matches for Andy Murray, and scares the hell out of me given that Novak Djokovic was his victim in the two he managed to win. I give a lot of credit to Garbine Muguruza, who seemed to be going down the path of other Slam finalists after Wimbledon, but has pulled it together for her second in the past four. She happens to be one of the few women around who has beaten Serena Williams in a major -- crushing her, in fact, 2 and 2 at the French in 2014. Here's hoping she goes into this one thinking she can actually win as opposed to Wimbledon, where she seemed happy to just be there.
