Qualies are already underway.

Nadal is out with a wrist injury.
Delpo is still out with a wrist injury.
Murray hasn't been the same since he won Wimby last year.
Djokovic hasn't been the same since he got married last month.
Stan hasn't been the same since he won this year's Aussie.
Federer is playing great tennis.
So are some younger guys.
This tournament is wide open on the men's side.

Serena will win the women's.

Let the games begin.

My heart says Roger, but my brain says Joker or Stan or dimitrov or even raonic.

Also, Nadal has a better chance of winning this than Ferrer, even though Nadal isn't playing.

I'm mobile. Looking back through would take some time.

Let me think: prolly not Rhyne or Tennys. Plus Tennys lost. Prolly not DY. Prolly not SteveO.. Or Sam. Those are Cali kids.

Not Rubin, he trains at Jmac's. Not Tiafoe: Maryland academy. I think Kozlov works with his dad?

Could be Austin Krajicek, or a Harrison bro. I won't rule out Bobby Reynolds.

Donaldson is I think northeast. So prolly not him.

Am I warm?

The fact that it could actually be Raonic makes me wanna throw up in my mouth...just a little.

Thats the closest you were. Played in the same conference as these two but on a different team

Not Rubin
Noah is actually coached by a former teammate of mine at Macs. He was with him last week at Winston Salem Open.

How tall is he?

Kozlov is either taller than I thought or Rubin is short.

Btw, I saw Kozlov in DC and was VERY impressed,
