Kyle has drawn Paulo Lorenzi in R1.

So relieved he didn't draw Andy again.

Edit

The other seed in Kyle's section is Jack Sock.  Bedene in in there too.

None of those 3 draws are terrible.

Biggest R1 match up is Dimitrov v Wawrinka.

Actually all 3 face decent early round routes. Kyle could face rafa round 4, Andy for delpo round 3 and cam might meet Dzumhur round 2 which isn't bad. Interesting

Watch out, people!  Sascha Zverev now has Ivan Lendl in his corner - confirmed by Stu Fraser in his report in today's Times...

 Sock has been dire in singles since he won the Paris Masters last year (partly thanks to Kyle).

Can't have any complaints with those draws at all. Murray and Cam could have easily faced a seed in R1 like Jo, so for the highest to be ranked 94 is very generous. Cam could even be looking at R3 as a potential match with Dzumher is a decent draw considering it is very likely you will face a seed in R2 if you avoided one in R1.

According to this, the upper half of the men's and women's draws play Monday - which looks like Andy and Kyle.

I thought I saw somewhere on twitter earlier that Andy, Kyle and Cam play Monday, Jo on Tuesday - but I'm not certain where I saw it now.

 

Edit: - It was Russell Fuller from the BBC

"Andy Murray, Kyle Edmund and Cam Norrie will all play Monday - Johanna Konta on Tuesday, with the winner of Watson/Swan to be placed in the draw post qualifying."

Match of first round for me is shapo v FAA. Exciting match up.

Nadal v ferrer one for old times, ditto Lopez v verdasco
