Djokovic potential first round match is against Dimitrov, and Tsonga's - Paire (noooo!).


Interesting first round matches elsewhere:

Stepanek-Hewitt

Bring on some fin tennis

I could see Federer losing to Zheng...if the 300 weeks was not at stakes,

I can only see Zheng being completely overwhelmed by the occasion, but do look forward to seeing him in the future. He plays like a more aggressive & powerful version of Nole.
From what I saw, very compact game, it would be nice to see him play well against Fed.
He needs to win his 1st round match first, though.
