Paul McNamee picks his favorite for the French Open:

Paul McNamee picks his favorite for the French Open: "He's by far the best player on clay right now."

Australian doubles legend Paul McNamee (5 Grand Slam titles, including two Australian Opens) spoke to Tennis 365. With the French Open fast approaching, the former world No. 1 doubles player believes there is little debate as to who will win the title.

For the Australian, one player stands head and shoulders above the rest on clay, and that player is Carlos Alcaraz: "The great masters of clay are Rafael Nadal and Bjorn Borg, and the next one will be Carlos Alcaraz. It's almost a miracle he didn't win the French Open last year, and he'll win it this year, unless something extraordinary happens. This guy is really good. He's got what it takes. He could win 10 Roland Garros. Let's not say 14 like Rafa, but for me, he's by far the best player on clay right now."

What an insincere poser he is. We all know that rafa has been playing very badly and can be beaten by two dozen people... He is just trying to look good and to take the pressure off himself.

lol you guys crack me up. Very respectful comments by the champ but the haters always have to criticize. So funny but predictable.

Novak, it seems as though he's trying reverse psychology as his latest trick, but it just shows how insincere he really is.
