(FILES) This file picture taken on June 11, 2001 shows Brazilian Gustavo Kuerten holding Roland Garros Trophy, the Musketeers Cup, in front of Paris' Sacre-Coeur Church in Montmartre, the day after he won the French Tennis Open. Kuerten will play his last competition in 2008 at his home away from home, Roland Garros. Three-time French Open winner, "Guga" won the hearts of Paris public for good in 2001 for a spontaneous gesture at the end of an extraordinary fourth round tie against American Michael Russell when he sunk to his knees and traced a huge heart with his racket on the red clay to dedicate his win to the fans in the stands.
