Nadal v Murray possible Q/F hmmm a bit early for this meeting methinks, would make a better S/F or final. Predicting Murray to win it this year which is probably the kiss of death for him but there you go.
It seems that Murray and Nadal won't meet now until the semis providing they both get that far, that is good news.

Seems you didn't have a lot to worry about. I'd probably make Murray the favourite of the three remaining now. Djokovic is IMO still the better player, but the support could see him over the line.
I'd love Federer to do well (adore his style of play), but i fear he's not on the same level as the other big three players anymore.

Well, I voted for Nadal so that was the death knell for his chances!
Think I might pop down to the bookies and put bets of Djokovic, Fed and Tsonga. That way Murray will be guaranteed the title.

I have a horrible gut feeling that Murray wont even make the quarter finals. Dont know why, but I just have this feeling.
Good too see Laura Robson getting passed a seeded player.
Murray v Yen-Hsun Lu today. Could be a tricky match.

I think I've just seen a star of the future! What a class act!! http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/23066266
Great day for tennis today, lots of seeded players beaten or withdrawn through injury both in the men's and women's game. Didn't expect Tsonga, Sharipova or Azarenka to go out this week and what about Nadal???! That has opened things up hasn't it? I think it is Murray's year to take Wimbledon and S Williams for the women's. Exciting 2nd week in store I think. Enjoy peeps xxx

1. Long Clay Court season so players are struggling to adjust
2. They've banned shoes that grip, in order to protect their precious grass
3. Top players ill prepared
Players are making excuses. "It's dangerous" whined Sharapova. No love, sweeping for landmines in Iraq is dangerous. Falling on your arse is simple falling on your arse.
The vast majority of players have had no problem playing on grass. They just get on with it.
Who would have bet that Nadal and Federer wouldn't even make the 3rd round? Bizarre first week.
What chance of Djokovic falling today? (very little I'd imagine.)

Yeah, reckon Fed will retire at the end of this season. Rafa might be finished as a force on grass.
