Some great openings in Wimbledon!

Apart from Nadal watching Nole and Fed $hitting each other again, there are quite some good stuff we get from the draw:

Here I listed the match with seeded players only:

Novak Djokovic SRB (1) vs Juan Carlos Ferrero ESP

Ernests Gulbis LAT vs Tomas Berdych CZE (6)

David Nalbandian ARG vs Janko Tipsarevic SRB (8)

David Ferrer ESP (7) vs Dustin Brown GER-dope guy

Nikolay Davydenko RUS vs Andy Murray GBR (4)

Jo-Wilfried Tsonga FRA (5) vs Lleyton Hewitt AUS

Special bonus:

Bernard Tomic AUS (20) vs David Goffin BEL

Philipp Kohlschreiber GER (27) vs Tommy Haas GER

I imagine Rogers pretty happy he's got a good draw.

and he and Novak have never played on grass so he probably feels more confident in that match-up than being in Rafa's half.

 

[TennisA]

I'm kind of sad almost all of the great Veterans are paired with the top seeds... Was hoping at least some of them went deep into the tournament

 

[romeo8880]

We shouldn't forget how atrocious Davydenko is on grass.

 

[Blinkism]

Ferrer got lucky. His first round opponent will be completely spent after such a long post-season and with little motivation after taking home the Stanley Cup.

 

[jaggy]

Tomic could be a good one

 

[underground]

I like the bonus ones.

But isn't it weird how many of the matches are rematch of Queen's + Halle. Anderson v Dimitrov, and Kohly vs Haas. It's a shame that Kohly and Haas have to fight it out again, two amazing grass players showing good form and one has to leave early. I do hope either one of them get to meet Nadal.

 

[Hood_Man]

Kohly vs Haas should be good, but I'm absolutely gutted they drew each other in the first round! Talk about bad luck for the guys who beat Fedal in Halle :evil:

Don't so sure about a good match...Kohl retired from his match today because of an ankle injury, and while I don't think it's bad enough to cause him to withdraw from the tournament, I have doubts he'll be at 100% in time for the first round

I chuckled.

Me too. I'm already hoping JCF pulls the upset.

 

[bluetrain4]

Did anyone notice that we could have Isner-Mahut AGAIN in the second round. That would be first round in 2010 and 2011, and second round in 2012. Crazy.

 

[Russeljones]

Are the bookies even taking $ for Tipsarevic to be dumped out? The guy has the worst luck.

same here. makes for some interesting first rounds, but sad that some of those matches had to happen so early

Nalbandian is a disgrace. I hope he doesn't hurt anyone else.

 

[big_bill]

Tomic vs. Goffin should be interesting. Bernard has a lot of points to defend so he'll be feeling some pressure this fortnight...let's see how he responds.

Post this somewhere else.

 

[stringertom]

Tomic should take this one...Goffin has only four matches of experience on grass, losing in last round of Wimby'11 qualies (Sisling in 4) and getting waxed by Paire in R1 @UNICEF this week.

 

[Homeboy Hotel]

Murray has possibly the worst draw in the history of draws.

He's out in the first week, it pains me to say.

I just realised that this means that Nadal's semifinal could be either:

a) Ferrer - probably easier than Murray on grass
b) A big server - possibly tougher than Murray?

well i can't agree with you there the toughest opponents for nadal are TSONGA MURRAY DJOKOVIC FEDERER those are the players that can take nadal out and not give him a ''scare''
