The French Open
Roland Garros Tennis Tournament |
|
The Roland-Garros tennis tournament in the spring is the world mecca of ground tennis, it is one of the key ATP competitions with Flushing Meadows, Wimbledon and Melbourne.
It was here that great players such as Borg, Graf, Wilander, Lendl, Kuerten and Nadal made their debut and here that spectators experienced some of the most exciting and spectacular matches in tennis history.
Clay courts slow the ball down and produce a high bounce when compared to grass and synthetic courts. As such, over the years, clay court specialists have evolved who often succeed here whilst higher ranked players may struggle. Fourteen-time major-champion Pete Sampras and current World No. 1 Roger Federer have won every other Grand Slam tournament several times, but never the French Open.
One of the highly selective foursome of Grand Slam tournaments... |

Radiohead
Over 23 million records over their career |
|
Radiohead are an English alternative rock band from Oxfordshire. Radiohead will be appearing in June at the Paris concert hall for two shows which already promise to be a sell-out with an electric atmosphere!...
From small gigs at the start of their career their powerful rock music resounded throughout the famous pubs of her gracious majesty – to big concert venues after « Creep », their first big world hit. Since this hit, the British group has developed its music with clever experimental touches of electronic music, Krautrock and jazz influences.
Radiohead left their record labe, and released their seventh album, In Rainbows (2007), through their own website as a digital download for which customers selected their own price.
Now scaling musical heights, Radiohead comes to hit the European scene with their undeniable talent as creative rock stars.
