As much as I like Hewitt, I think the most he'll make is to the quarters. The guys got the tenacity and all but the game isn't up par with people these days.
Also, I'd love to see a Roddick - Hewitt match.

I considered him, but he just isn't good enough yet imo
no, he's playing really badly imo.

Tsonga, Gasquet- Injuries
Roddick, Hewitt, Safin: All too old. Their chances are long gone.
Stepanek, Mahut- Serve and volley isn't that effective
Karlovic- Slices kill him. Federer and probably a lot of other players beat on him every time they play.
Tursunov- Not good enough
Federer- He's past his peak.
Players solid enough to get far or win:
Youzhny
Murray
Nadal
Gonzales

the only dark horse for wimbledon would be:
karlovic and maybe monfils??
karlovic and maybe monfils??
ok, we'll see if they're fit to play on time.
Roddick is only 25
Hewitt has just turned 27
Safin is 28
None of them are two old.
On grass?
really?
Mahut nearly won queens last year.
Stepanek was recovering from paralysis of the right side of his body last year.
The previous year he got to the quarters, and was only beaten by Bjorkman because he was unwell, (flu)
No actually, on both counts.
On grass?
Really?
What?
He just got to the final of RG?!?!?!
Murray and Gonzales have absoltely NO chance of winning.NONE.Not a snowballs chance in hell.

roddicks is always a favorite going into wimbledon. I think the big guns for wimbledon are going to be nadal, federer, djokovic and roddick. Gasquet is such a panzee he wont make it as far as last year.

I was thinking the same thing. Tipsarevic is my darkhorse this year. Gulbis' game seems to fit grass.
Karlovic is ranked #21 ... I don't think he's a darkhorse anymore, but I do expect him to be in the 2nd week.

Interesting how unpredictable this tournament has been.
