Davy wont beat Andy, why?
1. He's past his best;
2. HE HATES grass
3. He won't believe he can do it
Best placing is 4R and that was in 2007.

Andy in bottom half of draw, so start Tuesday/Wednesday, weather permitting?
If it's Tuesday on Centre then I will have the pleasure of seeing Andy live for only the 2nd time. Don't care about the rain cos we have a roof!

R1: Davydenko
R2: Karlovic
R3: Anderson
R4: Cilic, Raonic?
QF: Ferrer/Del Potro
SF: Nadal
F***, like they really wannt Andy to fail. All the big hitters in the first week, besides Davydenko. Doubt ferrer is going to make it to the QF and whoever believes that draw of Nadal-Andy and Novak-Federer is a coincidence, doesn't have a clue about matemathics.

And if it is Tuesday, then that's my Tuesday night/Wednesday morning and I've managed to bag 2 days off next week - Wednesday and Thursday. I would have liked more but just can do it atm so best get caught up on some sleep now!

Raonic's one name I'd hoped not to be in Andy's quarter! So tough - one bad service game in a set and that could be the set over.
Davydenko's not the force he was, but still capable of great shotmaking and returning. Andy will come through I expect but may drop a set.
Delpo and Ferrer aren't great on grass, so I'd expect Andy to get through if he faced one of them.
Rafa, as always, will be the big obstacle. But if Andy wants to win a slam, then he's got to find a way to beat him. He's done it before, he has to be able to do it again.

Fedex does look to have the easier of the draws.

Yes, and Andy's always liable to have 1 bad service game a set and, recently, there's a habit of it being after he's just got a break himself. Maybe all the extra concentration and focus will set him up for Rafa and Joker

Yes let's hope so. Extra focus would really help him in the big matches.

His draw is just ridiculous. Before the draw I'd fancied an earlier exit for the Smug but just can't any threat until he has the Joker in the semis when he'll lose in straight sets

R1 - Davydenko - doesn't like grass, and is past his best. Will be a good test for Murray's groundstrokes and movement early, however!
R2 - Karlovic - ouch. Seriously am dreading this match. Karlovic on grass is an absolute nightmare of a R64 draw. Murray would have to produce a very patient and carefully aggressive match to win.
R3 - Anderson. Hmm, not too bad. Obviously has a huge serve, but Murray is several classes above him on this surface.
R4 - Cilic or Raonic. The two worst match-up in their respective bracket. Jesus H Christ. This may be where Murray exits.
QF - ? - It's definitely not going to be Ferrer in the QFs, that's for sure!
If Murray reaches the semis, it's arguably a very good achievement already!

Yep. I think he'll probably get past Karlovic, but it could well be in 5. R4 looks like where he'll exit this year.
