Andy Murray: Personally i don't expect great things from the Scot this year, i mean i don't see him winning his first GS, ...only with a lucky draw (with some upsets...) he could get it.
He has all the shots, he is physically one of the best out there, he's also probably the best player along Federer mixing up his game, in short a high class player...but something is missing, don't know what though.


Harrison: Well.. the american improved a lot the last year, honestly a nice surprise, if he continues progressing we could see him reaching QF in either Australia or New York, only hard court tournaments because he has no experience on clay and grass yet.


no bad so far

With all those Murray fanboys here you're not likely to hit the jackpot. :)

I highly doubt anyone has got a perfect draw, simply due to the randonness of 'qualifier A v qualifier B'. Qualifier B could be a great player out for a while, or a total scrub.

Besides, if you got a perfect draw you will be gutted you never went to the bookies, it would be about 1000-1.

The draw you make your picks on,is the same as the real one.So there is no qualifier A/B/C.. You take a look at the full singles draw (after the qualifiers) and you know who is who!

Players typically dump their coaches, after this showing, Lendl is probably gonna dump Murray. I don't think he has this level of patience.

I think they fit each other very well. Lendl was a notorious Grand Slam choker but at least he did win a bunch of them. Still, his record of 19 finals and only 8 wins is rather poor.

Hey what the... Who dropped out at the last second to give Bjorn Phau a seed? I can't remember who was in that section but I sure as hell didn't pick him to win over Davydenko.

Anyone watch Fed's match?
Sure he looked a bit sick, movement was off, but he seemed to be hitting the ball very well.
Also seemed to be hitting with a lot of spin! Watch the highlights. You can even see he's doing more extreme follow-throughs on a lot of shots, up at the shoulder, or above the head.

Possibly trying to get the most effect from the slow, high bouncing courts at IW?

Does he shift his grip slightly for courts like these? Looked like semiwestern sometimes.

After impact, I think, but still...
