Murray is losing to Gonzalez in the QF's.... that would be the result that would make the most sense given the draw.
Chela in round one isn't ideal, but this is not the Chela of a couple of years ago and will probably be a nice opening match for Murray which will force him to focus his mind on the job.
Cilic/Stepanek in round 4 could be tricky as well, but neither have had a good clay court season, and therefore I wouldn't expect either to be a real threat to him.
Gonzalez though has a gift of a draw to the QF's, and given that he's had a good clay season and is better on the clay then Murray, that's when Murray's run will end.
Federer could not have hand-picked a better draw for himself.... Djokovic has a pretty easy draw as well, and anything other than those two in the semi finals will be a shock.
Rafa's draw is nice as well, but then, no draw would be a problem for him on the clay.
I see another thread has been started, presumably because they couldn't find this one, which is why I thought these entry lists should be in the section with the others.
Murray plays well against Gonfalez though and neither Cilic / Stepanek play well on the red stuff and Andy has winning record against both. If he has any pretensions of getting to No. 1/2 in the world he should expect to get to the semi's
