Unstoppable Muster wins again
Top seed Thomas Muster showed once again why he is regarded as the favourite for the French Open with a stunning three set win over talented Spaniard Juan Carlos Ferrero in the final of the Open Seat Godó 2005, increasing his number of clay court titles to four. However, Muster was forced to recover from a mid-match lapse which threatened to de-rail his scintillating form, before powering to victory in just under two hours. With this victory, Muster improves his year-long record to 24-9, including an unmatched 22-3 on clay. With Roland Garros just a month away, the question on everybody's lips is can anybody stop him from claiming the first Grand Slam of the year?On this form it will take a mighty big effort

[Catriel]

Well done Alami and Kuerten!
