Default 10 Most Memorable French Open Matches
(one writers opinion - if you go to the site, there's more detail on every match, and some very nice photos):

From the author: A memorable match to me needs: a player who showed complete dominance over her/his opponent, a comeback, an incident during the match, and a historic result.


This list has all of those traits and more. There are five men's matches and five women's matches on the list. Most of the matches are French Open finals, but there is also one quarterfinal match and a fourth-round

10. 1999 Roland Garros Final: Andre Agassi d. Andrei Medvedev, 1-6, 2-6, 6-4, 6-3, 6-4

9. 1988 Roland Garros Final: Steffi Graf defeated Natasha Zvereva, 6-0, 6-0

8. 2004 Roland Garros Final: Gaston Gaudio defeated Guillermo Coria, 0–6, 3–6, 6–4, 6–1, 8–6

7. 1984 Roland Garros Final: Ivan Lendl defeated John McEnroe, 3-6, 2-6, 6-4, 7-5, 7-5

6. 1983 Roland Garros Final: Yannick Noah defeated Mats Wilander, 6-2, 7-5, 7-6 (7-3)

5. 1992 Roland Garros Final: Monica Seles defeated Steffi Graf, 6-2, 3-6, 10-8

4. 1983 Roland Garros fourth round: Kathy Horvath defeated Martina Navratilova, 6-4, 0-6, 6-3

3. 1985 Roland Garros Final: Chris Evert defeated Martina Navratilova, 6-3, 6-7 (4-7), 7-5
