Andy got a tough draw if hes physically 100% fit, then theres no reason why he can't make the 4th round at least. Simon, is a player ive heard of i think he had a run in the late indoors season, whether hes a good clay court player i dont know. Melzer is comfortable on clay, its Robredo we should be aware since hes having a good clay court season. Imo Djokovic got a bad draw.

that is the undrestaitment of th year
can just hope he gets something similar for roland garros
Federer lost again! To Volandri. I watched the match, Federer deserved to lose because he was being bossed around! i think people are going to think is Fed under pressure? i dont think he is, he needs a lost so he can prepare well for Hamburg! also, i think he was intimidated by the Italian crowd.
Problem is that Rafa has taken over. With reaching Wimby finals last year he's the threat on every surface as his style is not as entertaining as Rogers...
I'm adamant that Rafa had a very kind draw at Wimbly last year, I will be very very surprised if he gets very far into the second week this year. But I agree Fed is definitely the lesser of two evils I just wish both of them were nearer to the rest of the pack so there was more competition at the very top. I think it might happen in the next year, maybe two, with Djokovic, Andy and then Youzhny, Berdych and potentially Kohlschreiber. That's my hope anyway.
