The two best clay courters of 2009 meet in the finals of the French. As whacked as this tournament may have seemed to many of us, it really is the appropriate finale, with these two the last two standing.

Dinara looks to put the cherry on top of the #1 ranked sundae with a win in the final. Having an incredible clay season, she's only lost one match on the red stuff (also her only loss since becoming #1 in the world). And that one loss was to Miss Kunetsova.

Sveta. Who doesn't love her. You just never know what Sveta you're going to love. It's looking more and more like leaving Spain for Mother Russia, and changing coaches, is having a big upside. Has had a wonderful spring, is back ascending the rankings, and is in her 4th Slam final.

Career H2H - 8-5, Dinara. 8 of those matches have been on clay, and they are even at 4 all. They've played twice at the French, and have split those ('06 Sveta won in straights, '08 Dinara in straights). They've also split their two appearances on clay this season, with Svetlana in straights at Stuttgart, and Dinara in straights at Rome.
