Luckily for us, the thoughtful, funny and proudly feminist Petkovic stuck with tennis, and the former top-10 player propelled herself into the French Open semifinals. Required fields are marked *. Published: 18:32 EDT, 25 May 2014 | Updated: 06:53 EDT, 9 June 2014 The 26-year-old German has had a lifetime's worth of injuries and comebacks, and this time last year she lost in the second round of Roland Garros qualifiers and thought about retiring from the sport. Coming into this tournament, many thought this would finally be Djokovic's year to hold the French Open trophy and take out Nadal in the process, but it wasn't to be. As far as singles is concerned, that didn't change any at this year's French Open. When it comes to women's tennis, the present is bright, and the future is even brighter. In the end, Nadal won it on a Djokovic double fault, 3-6, 7-5, 6-2, 6-4. However, Nadal began finding the court on his forehand, and Djokovic just couldn't find anything to challenge the Spaniard. It was a phenomenal two weeks for the girls of the WTA Tour, with rising stars such as Halep, Muguruza, Ajla Tomljanovic and Bouchard all scoring big-time wins, and a superstar in Sharapova claiming the top prize. (Guilty as charged.). It was even better to reach the final. If I don’t start good, if I lose the first set, I’m going to be there until the end.
