Fancy Nadal to beat any of them in the quarters except Novak, who is my bet for the Slam data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7
Hoping Djokovic doesn't get Federer on his side of the draw again. That's been the case for 5 years straight.
... and he doesn't. Murray gets Nadal and Federer (that is the likely QF) in his draw while Djokovic avoids all of them. About time he gets a pleasant Wimbledon draw!
BBC Sport - Rafael Nadal beats Novak Djokovic to reach Rogers Cup final
Nole gets a ball in the face in the process too data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7

So much for world number 1 Murray has dropped to number 3 because of Rafa's incredible hardcourt swing. Him and Novak might be seeded 1 and 2 for the USO meaning a hard SF for Murray is almost a certainty if he makes it that far.
Rafa must be the clear favourite. Novak's form is terrible and Murray's not so great either. Nadal sweeping up the hard court Masters like this is pretty much unheard of, especially Cincinnati, the fastest courts in tennis today.
US open starts today!
Nadal is on fire but I'm going for Nole
Rafa wins. Roger playing today after a rain delay as is Djokovic.
I'm going for Rafa, hopefully he plays Federer in the QF as this is Federer's best chance of beating Nadal at a Slam but that's highly unlikely tbh.
IMO, Del Potro will beat Novak in the QF, Murray will beat Del Potro in the SF, Rafa will beat Murray in the final.
Holding out hope that Nole/Roger can win.
How wrong I was, Hewitt knocked out DelPo in round 2 data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7 I get a little sad when I think about DelPo's career, had he not had that wrist injury at the end of 2009 he may well have won many more Slams. IMO his US Open win is the most impressive Slam performance by anyone in the last 5 years. Absolutely destroyed Rafa and then ended Federer's 5 year unbeaten streak in NY back to back.
Woo go Lleyton. Rolling back the years
Federer out in round 4 to Tommy Robredo in straight sets, who he previously hada 10-0 record against data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7 I think Federer should/will retire at the end of the season, I feel sorry for him now.
