Checking Azarenka's Draw in Wimbledon 2012

Victoria Azarenka comes into this year's Wimbledon as the #2 seed but she doesn't really have the grass credentials to support her yet and she has a very challenging draw!  Her prospective opponents include Irina Camelia Begu, Simona Halep and Ana Ivanovic and her prospective quarterfinal opponents all did well in this year's grass court season, Urszula Radwanska, Marion Bartoli and Tamira Paszek.  Any of these women can give her a hard time in the quarters.  I am gunning for Marion Bartoli though since she has Grand Slam experience at this event where she has reached the finals.  So, nerve-wise, I think she can pull off a semifinal slot from under the rug of Victoria Azarenka.

So, instead of Vika in the semi's, my pick is Marion Bartoli.
