Making it sound so doable. She's just 24 aces/unreturnables and 24 DFs from Errani/Return winners from the GOAT club. I know I'm clutching at straws but at this point I don't even mind Errani shitting up the courts

Not gonna lie, part of me would've liked a real epic where she had to save match points  Just to make it seem sweeter. But our hearts couldn't've stood it.
Just one more match

 I just hope Maria wins, and I hope Thomas really prepare her for this game, like.. anticipating Errani's drop shots better and all that.

Re: Roland Garros 2012: Moo fighting for glory on the red dirt !
Another nice fact for the thread
Maria is now guaranteed at least 4 weeks at number one, unless Vika decides to play some grass court events before Wimbledon. (A win in the final would make any Vika pre-Wimbly points irrelevant)
With those four weeks, Maria will finally get to climb above a whole host of other players for total weeks at number one, rising above Jelena Jankovic (18 weeks), Victoria Azarenka (19), Kim Clijsters (20) and Tracy Austin (21) to earn a guaranteed 22 weeks at #1, placing her at #12 in the all time list.
It's nothing major, but it's nice to see her finally climb above Jankovic, close in on Safina and get some extra leverage in the "who's greater Maria or Kim" debate.

My hunch is Maria will stick around No. 1 for a while, either now or later on in the year.
