My Fantasy 2012 Olympics Men's Draw - Upper Top Half

Oh well, I formulated my own 2012 Olympic Games men's draw based on this week's rankings (July 23, 2012).  What I did was to randomly place the top 64 players (like the Olympics) all over the draw but allowing only four entries per country.  If a fifth entry is still in the top 64, I skipped him for the next player.  I did not follow the Olympic rule of reserving three slots for small countries since that would just weaken the field.

This is how the upper top half draw looked like -

Roger Federer (SUI) vs. Jurgen Melzer (AUT) 


Xavier Malisse (BEL) vs. Radek Stepanek (CZE)


Alexandr Dolgopolov (UKR) vs. Mikhail Kukushkin (KAZ)


Bernard Tomic (AUS) vs. Nicolas Almagro (ESP)


Gilles Simon (FRA) vs. Lukas Lacko (SVK)


Steve Darcis (BEL) vs. Victor Troicki (SRB)


Andy Roddick (USA) vs. Fabio Fognini (ITA)


Santiago Giraldo (COL) Jo-Wilfried Tsonga (FRA)


To know who wins in each match up, I used the Head-to-Head data available at www.atptennis.com.  It's interesting how things turned out!
