Draw is out..Andy has a bye then either Chela or Srichaphan then probably Nalbandian.

It's gonna be an interesting week

i doubt rafa will reach the QF

Safin/Clement in the second round, followed by gasquet/wawrinka and then probably blake. All are better carpet players, Safin loves i here, wawrinka is good on carpet and blake has nadal's number.

I wonder if Andy has recovered...

It will be tough for him but given a bit of a rest hopefully he takes his chance here to cement his place in the top 20.

So definitely no wild card for Tim, the third one goes to Gicquel

I don't think he could meet Rafa before the semis - and I VERY much doubt Rafa will get that far! QF, if Andy could get that far, is likely to be Berdych or Ferrer, both in pretty good form.

Perhaps if I start crossing fingers now.....

A Fed/Djoko QF is a pretty tasty prospect if Federer shows up after the hoopla at the DC.

Yeah ur right....trying to read a draw on MTF in one page and flicking here on another via a mobile phone is a tad stupid of me

Madeline · Admin:Moderator + Tennis Legend

Takes me all my time to flick from one to another on a computer never mind a mobile phone. . .

seagull · Hall of fame

Looks like Nalbandian is out so Andy's chances just got a whole lot better!

Madeline · Admin:Moderator + Tennis Legend

Yes, replaced in Andy's part of the draw by Hrbaty.

Although the way Nalbandian has been playing recently I would have expected Andy to beat him!

First post updated with that and other withdrawals. They are falling like flies.
