I've updated the entry list with the wild cards and the withdrawals to today - I'm away next week, perhaps one of the other Mods could update it next week.

If someone could let me know where to find the lists, I'm happy to keep it up to date next week.

I like the wild card choices barring Kuerten.

I wonder if Eysseric can win a match! He certainly has a chance with a good draw - he took a set of someone (probably Patience) last year.

Thank Seagull, I've added the change. I can't figure out which colour Mad used for the IN people so I'm afraid you'll have to suffer the difference until she returns!!

Do we know what's up with Roddick? He usually makes an appearance if only for the first round so I assume it's a real injury and not simply an avoidance of clay.

Yeah, but haven't you noticed, the BFG has learnt to play on clay this year. (and if he forgets again in the next week, he wouldn't make it to round 3 anyway and who knows what dangerous floater would take his place?!).


I think 10th or 9th seed is the best for Andy. If he's one of the top 8 he's got the pressure of reaching the QFs at his worst grand slam when he's not done that at any GS before. At 9th or 10th he still has pressure to reach the 4th round (unless someone horrid is in his draw) but before than it becomes an added bonus. I think part of the problem in Oz was everyone looked at the draw and went "Andy Murray will get to the semis" it pretty much all went downhill from there.

17. Baghdatis 18. Mathieu 19. Almagro 20. Karlovic 21. Stepanek 22. Verdasco 23. Ferrero 24. Gonzalez

If you look at this list of players who he could face it actually isn't quite as bad as it first appears that it could be

Baghdatis - hasn't played on clay at all this year and I think he only played one of the US masters events as well, so isn't going to be in the best of shape coming into this event

Mathieu - known choker so as long as the fact is relatively close PHM will probably mess the match up, as well as having the french crowd to contend with (plus I cannot see how he is ranked this high as I don't see anything special in his game)

Almagro - injured coming off Rome and has a habit of losing some strange matches at RG, losing to Blake and Llodra the last two years

Karlovic - horrible grand slam record and has lost every 5 set match he's ever played so there are fitness issues around him

Stepanek - game matches up very nicely to Murray's, but wouldn't be a nice draw

Verdasco - choker, injured wrist coming off Hamburg and Murray will frustrate him to death with his variety

Ferrero - injured and apparantly a doubt as to whether he will play

Gonzalez - another injury doubt although he'll be fit to play, but hasn't lost a match on clay this year

Look at it this way and all of a sudden it becomes a nice draw, although there are plently of dangerous floaters who could take out Murray and/or his seeded opponent
