FO 2012: Interesting First Round Match-Ups Men's Game

I was browsing through the men's draw today and here are the top 5 match-ups that I find very interesting -

#1 Andreas Seppi (ITA) vs. Nikolay Davydenko (RUS) - Davydenko, a former Top 5 player will meet one of the champions of this clay season, Andreas Seppi, who won the Serbia Open.  Seppi looks in form but Davydenko, with a wealth of experience behind him, should still give Seppi some opposition.

#2 Mikhail Kukushkin (KAZ) vs.Ernests Gulbis(LAT) - I like Gulbis but he has never risen to his potential unfortunately. Now he has drawn one of Kazakhstan's rising players, Kukushkin.

#3 Viktor Troicki (SRB) vs. Thomaz Bellucci (BRA)  - One of Serbia's best players, Troicki, draws Brazil's #1 player, Bellucci, both good clay courters.

#4 Nicolas Mahut (FRA) vs. Andy Roddick (USA) - French marathon man Mahut is back again against another American, this time, Andy Roddick. Will they have a marathon game again?

#5 James Black (USA) vs. Mikhail Youzhny (RUS) - Two senior players at it, both former Top 10 players, in a surface they least like!
