French Open 2012: day 11 live 12:35 Away from the clay courts, anyone else a little excited about grass court season starting? Queen's, Wimbledon and the Olympics just around the corner now and the groundsman at SW19 has just tweeted this teaser: Centre Court is ready and waiting! 12:30 there's more good news for Novak Djokovic today, he's just been named as Serbia's flag-bearer for the opening ceremony of the London 2012 Olympic Games. "We are all very excited about the Olympic games in London, such a magnificent sporting event, and it goes without saying what a great honour it is for me to carry the flag for Serbia," Djokovic said. 12:26 wave the Union Jacks! Kyle Edmund is through to the quarter-finals of the boy's singles having beaten second seed Gianluigi Quinzi of Italy. Fantastic effort. Ferrer and Murray meet again this afternoon then and it's a tough one to call given their previous encounters. Nine times they have played with Murray leading by just one but the Spaniard has had all the success on clay. Here's what the world No 6 has to say about the Briton: Murray is a player who has a high level of tennis. It's been the case for a number of years. I think he could have been number one because he analyses matches really well. He reads the opponent's game very well. He's a player whose first serve is outstanding. He's very gifted and talented. He moves well to the net, his volleys are really excellent. He's a very tough player to play against. 12:16 If you missed yesterday's showdown between Djokovic and Tsonga then SHAME ON YOU, it was quite incredible. Five sets, a Frenchman on home turf looking to be on the verge of knocking out the world No 1, 14,000 + people were on their feet as the home favourite set up match point after match point in the fourth set but victory just kept evading him and it was not meant to be. Djokovic took the penultimate set on a tie-break and Tsonga's head went down. The Serb proved to the world just why he holds the top ranking and dispatched his opponent 6-1 in the fifth to set up a final four clash with Roger Federer. It was more like a final than a quarter - astonishing. So much so only re-watching it can really do it justice, here are the highlights: 11:57 It's an all-Spanish affair in the other remaining men's quarter-final, world No 2 Rafa Nadal takes on Nicolas Almargo on the Phillipe Chatrier court though they won't be in action until serial screamer Maria Sharapova has taken on Kaia Kanepi of Estonia...I know she struggled on Monday but I think the Russian will take the semi-final place from that match. Keep waving that Union Jack as there are more Brits in action on the smaller courts. In the boy's singles, Kyle Edmund is taking on second seed Gianluigi Quinzi of Italy before Liam Broady meets America's Noah Rubin. There'll be very little rest for the pair as immediately after their matches they are in action against one another in the boy's doubles. Broady partnered with compatriot Joshua Ward-Hibbert while Edmund plays with Bar Tzuf Botzer of Israel. 11:45 Good afternoon and welcome to our live coverage of day 11 at Roland Garros and the second round of quarter-final matches. If you're feeling blue about being back in the office after such jubilant celebrations over the extended weekend, fear not you can keep waving your Union Jack a little longer as Andy Murray takes to the clay courts of Roland Garros in his last eight clash with David Ferrer in just a couple of hours. The world No 4 and his Spanish opponent are second on the Suzanne Lenglen court so their start time depends on how long Petra Kvitova takes to undo Yaroslava Shvedova (there's my first prediction of the day. Yes the Kazakh stunned us in the last round with the ousting of top seed Victoria Azarenka, but I'm just not sure she'll end the Czech's campaign.
