So he could face seeds 1-4 in round one?  I would not even be surprised if thats the case considering his R1 opponents this year.

He could face anyone in R1 apart from seeds 1-8 because they have byes.

Well I won't get my hopes up. He went from nearly consistent, to on-off-on-off, and then permanent off, so I'll expect an 'Ancic' in the first round who beats him, that way I can only be pleasantly surprised. I didn't think I'd say this as early in 2008 a year ago!

No, I'm quite disappointed by where we're sitting now. But it'll pick up. This is gonna be a long career and a rollercoaster of one. We should be more patient I feel.

Berdych, I think is struggling.  Anyway, is Murray likely to be seeded in top 16 with berdy & tsonga out and hopefully Roddick just for the fact he doesnt like clay because he is too heavy to move around it.

on Berdychs web-site he is hoping to play Hamburg  - he is out of Rome.  (95% certain)

Its his homepage but news & update in middle say Rome is not on the agenda

Ok cheers, have taken him out as it looks very unlikely he will play.

I really hope so although tsonga may surprise us and play.  Its highly unlikely but we cant rule out until the draw is made

The SE spot has been cleared, and Kohlscrheiber has withdrawn, so Santoro and Bolleli are in. I fully expect Tsonga to drop out as well.
