Default Djokovic has a pretty cake draw...

seriously nobody tough in his draw.
Best players at the moment are djokovic, murray, federer, delpotro
3 of them are in the bottom half, djokovic alone at the top. He would have won regardless but it will be an easy major for him this year.

the only arguably good guy in his draw is berdbich who is unfortunately is a good match up for djoker and his what ever you may call it ! So djoker is guaranteed for the final and if it is unfortunately fed in the final , his title is guaranteed as murray will atleast have a chance against this grinder

His path to the final is easy no doubt, compared to Fed and Murray. But hey when was the last time he failed to make a final of a hard court slam? Regardless he is favorite against anyone on hard court so even with a tough draw he will likely overcome it

There goes to the "tough era" assesment when 1-player-swing can completely change the difficulty of the draw.

You can thank Nadal for destroying the symmetry of the tour.

Even though I don't like Djoker, he is seeded #1. He is supposed to have the easiest draw. That is one of the reasons why you strive for #1.

It doesn't work like that, 1 and 2 are supposed to get equal draws.

Djokovic has already played against descent opponents in Harriosn & Stepanek. Wawrinka shouldn't be a problem but is a good player.

You want to talk about joke draws, look at Murray. Plays a qualifier in round three... REALLY!?

That was obvious as soon as the draw came out.

His draw was cake at the USO as well. He got Ferrer...

Looks like Djokovic is supposed to get the cake draw regardless if he is #1 or 2....

Respectfully disagree. Draws are supposed to be symmetric.

Did any of you watch last night's match? Stepanek was pretty good; if Djokovic had been at all off his game it could have ended quite differently.

And Stan and Berdych earned their seedings. Won't be Djokovic's fault if both decide to play a losing strategy and/or fold up under the pressure. Berdych could get hot and do the same thing to Djokovic that he did to Fed at W and the USO.

Berdych is the toughest quarterfinal matchup in this draw, followed by Delpo. No one is gonna beat the top 3 before the quarters, so draw does not matter till then.
