The French Open is weak w/ Poll

Not just cause it is in France, but there shouldn't be an open on clay courts, they are awful and dangerous. The best players rarely win the French Open, I think cause it reduces the control that players have on their feet. Pete Sampras never won a French Open and he was the best player for atleast 10 years, doesn't something seem wrong with that?
 
Just because Americans can't play on clay doesn't mean it's no a good surface to play on.
Give the Spaniards a break for once. They need a tournament they at least have a chance in. Hardcourts are ours.
 
I love watching tennis and love Pete Sampras, but that's one crappy reason to make a ridiculous suggestion.

Why don't we get rid of grass too? It causes dangerous allergies (for someone I'm sure).

Mabey the "best" players should practice more on clay courts in order to compensate for their obvious glaring weakness.
