Roger Federer will not be in the semifinals of Roland Garros. Federer has been eliminated in the Quarterfinal round by Robin Soderling in 4 sets. Federer's streak of 23 straight Semifinals appearances in a Grand Slam comes to an end with this upset. This might be a sign that Federer is declining in ability (YEAH!!!). He is still a great threat for any Grand Slam event but this might be the point where he starts to go down hill. It happens to all athletes and the late 20's is where Tennis players start there descent.
Roland Garros is now there for the taking. Rafael Nadal is now presumed the favorite as he won 4 straight French Opens before Federer won the Slam last year. He will face Nicolas Almagro in his Quarterfinal match.
