Analyzing the Men's Draw of Wimbledon 2011: The Third Segment of the Draw
Roger Federer is now only the #3 player in the world, but gauging from his play in the first round, he could still give #s 2 and 3 a run for their money. In his part of the draw though, Roger should not have any problems with anyone, and I predict that Tsonga will be his opponent in the quarters. He does have possible heavyweight opponents on the way though, like David Nalbandian, who has beaten him before, and John Isner, the marathon man of Wimbledon.
Peppered around the draw are other competent players like David Ferrer, who is on a roll this year, Mikhail Youzhny, a former Top 10 player and Fernando Gonzalez, who is slowly working his way back in the rankings. I was shocked to discover that he is now ranked #478 in the world! He has now reached the second round so his ranking should slowly go up soon.
So for this part of the draw, Roger Federer is the easy pick for the semi's.
