Federer is chasing something that he has never won so far – a French Open title. With twelve grand slam titles to his name, not one of those wins has been achieved at Roland Garros.After a terrible start this year claiming not even a single hard court title win, he seems to be in good form now.He has 20-3 record on clay this year.
Federer has only dropped two sets on his way to the semi-finals. If he continues to play as he has done, he should surely make it to the final. Federer holds a 3-0 record over Monfils, two victories of which have been achieved this year.
Monfils became the first frenchman in 7 years to reach the French Open semifinal when he defeated spanish fith seed David Ferrer 6-3, 3-6, 6-3, 6-1.The former World Junior No.1 Monfil's previous best performances at a Grand Slam was to make the fourth round, which he did at the French Open in 2006.He has been playing very steady and consistent and if he continues his current form he has chance for the final.
