Draws are out on Friday. It's time to become one with the grass.

Looking forward to it. Every year it is a lot of fun to watch.

Going to Wimbledon is #2 on my sports bucket list.

Troicki is my dark horse. He's shooting up the same good stuff as Djoker is.

From what I've heard about him through various stories from others, he was more of a...

They give good stuff to the Kentucky Derby horses too, but you don't often see a donkey draped with roses at the end.

Just sayin'

His ranking will shoot up fairly quickly in the second half of the season, but for now it is what it is. As long he gets in Fed's section, he can win the tournament.

Here is that link to the seeds. I'm not sure why Jo Willie is listed. I'm pretty sure he pulled out.

Hoping for a good showing by the up and coming American women. I think Keys has the "biggest" game, Sloane is the most talented, and McHale...well I just like her.

You mean, he will have a shot of getting past the round of 16 if he gets there. Otherwise, he can lose to anyone else in the draw other than Fed, in any section of the draw.

I'm not at all clear how the above is allegedly responsive to my post.

Did you really just respond to me commenting that he can win the tournament if in Fed's section with...

You did, so I'll just note that:
1) it doesn't make sense
2) any interpretation that allows it to make literal sense also makes it wrong.

But besides that, I guess great point.

OK, I'm a little hazy and in a hurry. Can't exactly tell for sure the quarter breakouts. But, Nadal looks to get Ferrer in the round of 16, Murray in the quarter. Fed/Sock third round could be fun. Don't see Fed beating Murray to get to the final. Novak/Kohli first round could be

Watching them both this year, I don't think he will beat Fed on Grass, and definitely not Murray or Dj the way they have been playing. His confidence (Rafa's) looks as low as I've ever seen it with him. He hung with Djoker early in their Roland Garros QF match, but after losing the first set, got his doors blown off. Rafa will likely have to get through Murray in the QF- who has had a very nice spring - to get to a potential SF match-up with Fed. I think Fed would take him unless Rafa has things turned around (which given his talent, could happen at any time). I expect another Djokovic/Stanimal match-up in the other SF, though Wawrinka will likely encounter Raonic in the Quarters, which could be problematic given the Milos' huge serve.

I'm looking forward to a great tournament this year, should be some nice tennis to watch.
