ONTHEAIR By Howard Fendrich APTennisWriter PARIS ThisiswhatRafael Nadal and Novak Djokovic wanted. It's what they ex- pected. And now they'll meet in a French Open fi- nal with so much at stake for both. Nadal is seeking champi- onship No. 9 at Roland Gar- ros, and his 14th major ti- tle overall. Djokovic is hop- ing to finally conquer the French Open and complete a career Grand Slam. Fit- tingly, whoever wins the rivals' 42nd head-to-head meeting Sunday will be ranked No. 1 on Monday; the runner-up will be No. 2. "He has the motivation to win Roland Garros for the first time, for sure. But at the same time, he has the pressure to win for the first time," Nadal said. "I have the pressure that I want to win — and the motivation that I want to win — the ninth." In Friday's semifinals, the No. 1-seeded Nadal was at his imperious, and nearly immaculate, best in a 6-3, 6-2, 6-1 victory over Wimbledon champion Andy Murray that lasted all of 100 minutes. Nadal never faced a break point, converted all six he earned, and whipped his uppercut of a forehand as only he can. Toni Nadal, Rafael's un- cle and coach, called the match "one of the best that he has ever played here." That's sure saying some- thing. Toni's nephew is 65-1 at the clay-court tour- nament and carries a 34-match winning streak into the final. The thick, gray clouds and chill that became a staple these two weeks gave way to sunshine and warmth Friday, and Nadal reveled in it. "For me, is much better when the weather is like to- day," he said. "My ball cre- ates more topspin. The ball goes quicker in the air, and with my forehand I am able to create more with less." All in all, Nadal made Murray look rather lost. "You want to be compet- itive. You want to make it hard for him," Murray said. "I wasn't able to do that." The No. 2-seeded Djokov- ic's semifinal was only slightly less perfunctory, a 6-3, 6-3, 3-6, 6-3 victory over 18th-seeded Ernests Gulbis of Latvia that came first Friday, when the tem- perature hit 82 degrees. Wrapping a cold towel around his neck during changeovers, Djokovic was brilliant through two sets, then faltered in the third, showing frustration. FRENCH OPEN TENNIS 8-timechampNadalgets Djokovic in Sunday final Both win Friday's semifinal matches with relative ease If there's one worry Sherman has, it's whether his chestnut colt with four white socks can run that far after a tough campaign of three big races in five weeks. "One thing I always won- der about is stamina," Sher- man said. "It could be walk- ing pace the first part of it. All of a sudden, the guys kicking in the last part don't get there." Ultimately, Sherman will leave the decision-making to Victor Espinoza, who saw his bid for a Triple Crown aboard War Emblem end in defeat at the 2002 Belmont. He and California Chrome have teamed to win six con- secutive races. "He gets him to relax. I never give him any instruc- tions," Sherman said. "I'm sure there will be differ- ent tactics, but that's OK as long as Victor can have a spot where he can run the last quarter of a mile." Racing has been aching for another Triple Crown champion since Affirmed became the third horse in the 1970s to sweep the Derby, Preakness and Bel- mont. California Chrome and his team would be wel- come members of the exclu- sive club if the colt can pull it off in front of a crowd ex- pected to top 100,000. "It has to be a super horse to win that," Espinoza said. Owners Steve Coburn and Perry Martin, who is from Yuba City, have shown that a couple of working stiffs who spent $8,000 on a mare they bred to a stallion for $2,500 can trump the sport's blue blood owners and breeders. They were called "dumb asses" by a trainer for buying a mare who gave no indication that she could produce a stand- out offspring who could run fast. "This horse has given ev- erybody else out there the incentive to say, 'You know what, we can do it, too,"' Co- burn said. "This horse is let- ting America know that the little guy can win." Coburn — who favors a silver belt buckle as big as his cream-colored cowboy hat — and Martin — who likes keeping a low-profile — showed their sense of hu- mor in naming their racing operation Dumb Ass Part- ners and sticking a donkey on their silks. Martin was the one who emailed Sherman with an audacious plan to get Cali- fornia Chrome to the Ken- tucky Derby — before he had even run a race. Now the colt is one win away from racing immortality. "You just like to see a great horse win it and I think he's got the potential to be a great horse," said Pa- trice Wolfson, whose late husband owned Affirmed, "so we'll be cheering for him." As much as Sherman wants California Chrome to win — the trainer will wear the same lucky suit he did at the Derby and Preakness — he can accept a loss, too. "He doesn't have to win another race as far as I'm concerned," he said. "It's a pleasure to be around a horse that has so much class and is 100 percent healthy." Chrome FROM PAGE 1 that is a lot harder on you. It's very painful. You're typi- cally going faster and you're pounding on hard pavement the entire time and it beats you up a lot, especially on the down hills." Anderson-Abbs said near the end of the race her mind turned to a couple of cyclists who began to shadow her. She realized they were there to guide the woman's division leader to the finish line. Anderson-Abbs said she recalls thinking that she should tell them they had the wrong person, before re- alizing she really was lead- ing the race. She surprised not just herself, but race officials as well, coming in before they could set up the rib- bon crossing the finish line. Anderson-Abbs said she didn't think she would be in contention as she had just competed in a 60-mile race a few weeks ago and felt like her body hadn't re- covered. It did and it made a visit home even better. Anderson-Abbs is a member of the Northern California-based Sunsweet- Sporthill long distance run- ning team. Title FROM PAGE 1 (0-2). With one out, Gold Glove shortstop J.J. Hardy botched a grounder, his fourth error in two games. Jaso went to third on the play and scored when Vogt hit a liner to left. Fernando Abad (1-2) worked the 10th and Sean Doolittle got three outs for his eighth save. The Orioles missed a chance to win it in the 10th when Nick Markakis was thrown out at the plate by Moss on Adam Jones' one- out single to right. Nelson Cruz was then cut down try- ing to steal home. In the third, Donald- son tagged Machado in the chest near third base for the third out, causing Machado to lose his balance and top- ple backward. Machado quickly stood up and yelled close-up at Donaldson, ap- parently questioning the force of the tag, and players from both sides crowded around the duo before Ori- oles manager Buck Show- alter pulled Machado away. That appeared to be the end of it, but with two outs and nobody on in the sixth inning, Orioles starter Wei- Yin Chen threw an inside pitch near Donaldson's chin. After retreating from the batter's box, Donaldson smiled knowingly. But he expressed anger minutes later, when Chen hit him on the arm with another inside fastball. Prior to that, Chen re- tired 10 straight batters. Chen gave up two runs — both on homers — in 6 1/3 innings. He left with a 3-2 lead, but the bullpen blew it. In the Oakland eighth, pinch-hitter Coco Crisp drew a walk from Darren O'Day, stole second and scored on a two-out single by Yoenis Cespedes. Oakland starter Tommy Milone allowed three runs and eight hits in six innings. Donaldson put the A's up 1-0 in the first with his 17th home run, and Norris con- nected leading off the sec- ond. Baltimore used three straight two-out singles, the last by rookie Jonathan Schoop, to get a run back in the bottom of the second. Davis tied it in the fourth with an opposite-field drive to left, and Machado hom- eredinthefifthfora3-2lead. NOTES: Kevin Gaus- man replaced Miguel Gon- zalez as Baltimore's starter vs. Oakland today.
