The first round in the French Open could be a difficult match for Andy Murray when he meets up with the French player Richard Gasquet.
Andy Murray won his last match against the French player when they met in Wimbledon in 2008 and gave everyone a glorious five set thriller to be entertained by although he had lost their previous two encounters.
Richard Gasquest who is presently ranked at number 68 could give Murray a far harder match than his ranking would suggest as he is a very talented player.
Gasquest who is 23 has had some problems to overcome with injuries and a positive test for cocaine last year which got him banned from the game.
His ban for the drugs test was later dismissed as it was accepted that he had inadvertently consumed the substance when kissing a woman who said she had taken it while she was at a party.
Roger Federer will be in the same half draw as 23 year old Murray and his game will be against Peter Luczak.
Round one for the women will see the number one women’s player, Serena Williams, playing against Stefanie Voegele.
Presently seeded at number 22 women’s player Belgian Henin has the possibility of facing Maria Sharapova in the third round and then the even more daunting task of playing the quarter finals against Serena Williams.
Three British women players will be in the main draw on ranking which is a first since 1992 however each will have a difficult match in the opening round.
