The 2008 French Open Roland Garros is officially underway at Stade Roland Garros, France. The fact that, the French Open is played on a clay surface, for tennis aficionados, bettors, and those alike, should immediately remind everyone of one player alone. The Spaniard, Rafael Nadal is the most successful professional (active) tennis player in the world, when playing on clay. World Champion odds-makers at SportsBetting.com have the French Open Roland Garros Men’s Betting Odds Prediction 2008 of winning it all, and/or the individual odds of each match per round.  

Through the years, Rafael Nadal has broken into the record books. He now is considered a synonym to success, everytime a tournament is played on this specific plane. To say “Rafa” is in his element (when on clay) would be the biggest understatement of all time. Over the last several years, he hasn’t dominated the competition… there simply hasn't been any.

How dominant has this kid been?

In the last 110 professional (clay) matches he has played in, Rafa has been the last man standing 108 times (that’s a winning percentage of over 98%).

Keep in mind that this is with the current #1 player in the world (Roger Federer +450) on the loosing end of some of these matches (mostly, in the championship rounds).

In other words, not even "Superman" (Federer), already considered the best of all-time, can touch this kid on clay.

On this year's French opening round, Rafa is a -10000 betting favorite against Thomaz Bellucci (+2500). "Rafa", will attempt to tie (one of the greatest clay players of all time) Bjorn Borg’s mark of 4 consecutive French Open titles (in the open era).
