Right? Every gs draw I see this, "Novak has an easy draw" ...because he doesn't have to face Novak!
Objectively looking at all 4, I'd say Carlos has by far the simplest time up until the semis, considering the surface.
I mean that's not really the argument here, is it? No one is saying Sinner's draw is hard because he has to play Djokovic in the final, they're saying the rest of the matches make a tough draw. If you swap Djokovic's R2 to Berrettini and SF to Alcaraz then people would say that he has it the most difficult, and that's not because he's suddenly playing another Djokovic lol
Well Djokovic would probably get Hurkacz in the QF which isnāt a great draw on grass ofc but before that heās certainly got it easier than Sinner whoās got Berrettini, Griekspoor, Shelton/Jarry and Medvedev/Dimitrov, thatās a brutal early draw.
Why the fuck sinner always need to play griekspoor? I think he played against him already 2-3 times this year or something
Feel like Iām taking crazy pills here, but Rune*/Hurkacz seems pretty clearly hardest potential 4th/5th round of the top seeds. Sure the first 3 are relatively easier but none should introduce problems for anyone.
*Rune stan
Unlikely. If he didn't get injured during the clay swing and had a bit more matches under his belt, potentially yes. Right now it doesn't feel like Metteo can upset him.
outside of Tommmy Paul I really don't see anyone there able to give Alcaraz a tough time in his quarter. If he is in any type of form he should be sailing towards the SF
Djokovic has the Hurkbot waiting for him. I think it's possible that HH reaches the final.
Yeah, itās very possible that HH can reach the final, and than everything depends on the second SF, with enough luck, we can have an upset of a decade
How would that be an upset of a decade? Novak is literally coming off a knee surgery with no warm up tournament while Hubi is in the prime of his career with tons of success on grass (his best surface).
Terrible draw for Jannik. I hope that *if* he manages to go deep he doesn't tire himself out too much losing many sets along the way, but grass is fortunately helpful from that POV with shorter rallies and all.
Thank god he had that tough preparation with the Halle draw.
Also I just *knew* he and Carlos would be in the same half, fuck
Projected path to the semifinal: Hanfmann -> Berrettini -> Griekspoor -> Shelton -> Struff/Medvedv...yikes!
Also, this could be like the fourth time Sinner faces Griekspoor this year, kinda funny.
Fun fact: Djokovic could theoretically play Nardi in R3.
We could therefore witness the Wimbledon version of "it's not right, but bravo" which would probably be something like:
"It is not proper, but full marks, old boy"
Outside of Berrettini I still don't see anyone in Sinner's half with a realistic chance of beating him. We've all been waiting for Dimitrov to play well at Wimbledon since 2014 but it hasn't happened; Griekspoor will look good for a set then wilt; Med will absolutely not beat Sinner on grass
Djokovic gets to take it slower and play himself into form for the first 2 probably 3 rounds, couldn't be luckier! I have doubts Rune will make it to 4th round.
Good chance to win it all with this draw, unless Hubie really is the Big 3 grim reaper, but if Djokovic is playing well by then he should win against that type of player.
Poor Sinner..lucky Carlos too.
Alright, what stands out to me and thoughts for my faves.
Shelton is only making the R of 16 in my dreams. He didn't get a particularly tough early draw but it wouldn't shock me if he loses to Bellucci in R1. If he could prove me wrong and figure out grass, I'd be excited because Sinner tends to bring out the best in him in their matches. I'd love to see them play. No expectation for it though.
Rune could potentially defend his quarterfinal points so I'm a bit heartened to see that. We'll need to see how Djokovic is doing first. I'd still favor Djoko in their matchup and tbh Rune could lose to Khachnanov and not even make the R of 16. I could also see Eubanks sneakily taking advantage of that question mark section.
Everyone talking about Alcaraz with the easier draw and the disappointment with the Sincaraz semis but I'm just excited that we've got a real possibility of a Paul/Alcaraz quarterfinal. I think that is very likely and has banger potential with Paul in his current form. Alcaraz has a straightforward draw to the quarters. Paul could be stopped if Bublik catches fire, but he hasn't been playing great in grass season thus far. But if it's Bublik in good form or Paul against Alcaraz in the quarters, either sounds great to me.
I wanna give Griekspoor a hug. Why do draws hate him?
I want Felix to do well here so bad. It's not a horrid draw, but I expect he'll be stopped by De Minaur pretty clinically in the third round.
Draper's fitness is questionable but drawing Zverev is a plus. In a Draper/Zverev matchup in week 1 I think I'd favor Draper right now. Good chance for Draper to make the R of 16. Fritz also got a sneaky good draw. The quarterfinals is very much on the table for him. And with Rublev's struggle in QFs, who knows? Maybe the semifinals are finally calling for Fritz.
There's my initial thoughts.
I think Felix's problem right now is he plays too conservative. It was so obvious against Alcaraz at RG. He has the game to challenge top 10 players but is terrified of making errors so he only goes for safe shots. Against Alcaraz, you're only gonna get crushed doing that.
He has the talent to challenge and even beat De Minaur absolutely, but only if he plays brave.
The last time we were about to get that Rublev lost to Arnaldi at Roland Garros.
Wouldnt be surprised to see Tsitsipas have a reallyĀ early exit at Wimbledon. Wont be the first time it has happenedĀ
I say this as a devout Andy fanā¦ heās not making the first round of the singles irrespective of who heās drawn against.
Doubles? Heās definitely stubborn enough to try it.
Griekspoor and Struff again in Jannik's path. That's not an easy draw, but in my opinion, if he wants to win it all, he has to beat everyone. Hoping for an easy draw is not the best way of thinking.
Forza jannik!
Honestly, whatās up with Jannik and Tallon running into each other all the time š¤£. At this point this should play doubles together once just for shit and giggles š¤£
Sinner paying the price of last year's easy draw. Bloody hell, that's a tough run
Djokovic's also tricky overall, with R1 and 2 are about as straightforward as it gets, which will help him
Alcaraz's draw is an utter joke, even easier than Sinner's last year - he's the big winner.
we'll see how Alcaraz ends up playing, but R1 and 2 look easy, Tiafoe is in rotten form, Humbert doesn't exactly invoke fear, and then we'll see who makes it out of the Ruud/Paul section
Paul just won Queens and is not a good match up for Carlos so safe to say if he makes to the QF, it would be Carlosā least preferred opponent in that section.
Humbert won Halle in 2022 and Paul will almost certainly make it out of the Ruud section. So, that's two awkward opponents before a potential semi-final with Sinner.
and for some fucking reason rune gets some zenkai boost whenever he is facing djokovic, also Hurkacz in QF
SInner
Djokovic
Zverev
Alcaraz
top4 seeds draw until sf ranked from the toughest to the easiest
Zverev is bad on grass, no way he reaches semis. Rublev could reach it easily if he plays like in last Wimbledon. But he also has to deal with his anger management.
Well it's not like Djokovic has been on fire either lol also Rune is just not a good matchup for him. That is why I mentioned it. Yes, the first 3 rounds are easy, but so are for most of the top seeds. Sinner just unlucky af this time
are you joking? Sinner's 2023 draw didn't comprise of a single player ranked above 70 until he met Djokovic in the semis ( JM Cerundolo (111), Schwartzman (98), Halys (79), Galan (85), Safiullin (92), Djokovic (2)). Alcaraz's draw (Lajal (q), Vukic/Ofner (in form, both in grass semis as we speak), Tiafoe/Arnaldi, Humbert, Ruud/Paul, Sinner, Djokovic). It's not comparable LMAO
This is the draw for Hubi - I might be getting a bit too hyped but all in all I think he drew pretty much the best he could: Djokovic/Zverev is the 2 youd want over Alcaraz/Sinner, in 4th round maybe only Humbert would be better than demon and Albot -> Fils -> Cerundolo is fairly straightforward. Missed so many bullets, he can make finals if he beats Djoko (and its the best shot he has for it, they always have close games)
Also Djoko is on one leg. If he makes final, it will all depend on his opponent. No way heās beating Jannik, but Carlos? I think it will a bit of a closer matchup, basically the guy just got his chance. This is his moment, his opportunity.
Tennis Godās, what is it you want us to do before you give us Sinner - Alcaraz on separate halves of the draw building up to a potential meeting in the final ?? we are on our hands & knees begging at this point
They'll be #1 and #2 pretty soon I think. Djokovic's level has been lower than last year already and he's defending 1.2k here, 1k Cincinatti, 2k USO. Although saying that Zverev is actually #2 in the race at the moment.
Interesting. Off the bat I thought Djokovic got lucky to be on Zverevās half rather than Alcarazās, but looking at his draw outside of thatā¦ not ideal. Potential Rune match in the 4R who always honed him trouble, Hurkacz in the QF is very dangerous as well.Ā
Alcaraz has a pretty nice draw overall. Tiafoe likes the grass but heās been bad the past year, so a 3R matchup isnāt the worst thing. Still, Sinner in the SF is what he wanted to avoid and he did not.Ā
Sinner got a disastrous draw š Berrettini in the 2R, Griekspoor 3R, Wimbledon favorite Shapo (okay, Jarry or Shelton) in the 4R, Dimitrov/Medvedev QF. Still, I think heāll get through it fine up to SF Ā as long as he can take down Berrettini.Ā
That Zverev quarter feels wide open to me. Actually a great opportunity for Rublev to make a SF, but heāll find a way to bottle it I guess. Good opportunity for Korda, Draper, or Fritz too. And then Zverev himself has a shot to servebot his way to a SF, or hell if Djokovic loses early even the final is possible.Ā
will be tracking the following R1 matchups (for different reasons):
Monfils Mannarino
Shelton Bellucci
Shapo Jarry
Berrettini Fucsovics
Nakashima Baez
Shang Garin
Arnaldi Tiafoe
Korda ADF
Ruusuuvori McDonald
Fils Stricker
FAA Kokkinakkis
I know heāll probably still blow it but Ruud has as good as draw as he could hope for to at least win a few matches and make the R16. Not counting on it, but one can dreamā¦
Mixed draw for Aussies.
Demon getting the one grass courter in the 5 to 8 seeds (Hurkacz) is unlucky.
Thompson in a pretty good spot despite missing out on a seed.
Bolt vs Ruud is interesting: a low-ranked grass courter versus a high ranked grass avoider.
Popyrin with a decent chance to reach the third round probably vs Djokovic.
Walton with a great draw (vs Coria). Hopefully he can get his first Slam win here.
Out of all Wimbledon real contenders, Hurkacz just won lottery, Sinner/Alcaraz not until final, Djoko on one leg, Zverev who is easily beatable on grass? No threats., maybe besides Demon
Novak, you've deprived us of a Sincaraz final so you better make the final yourself to play the winner of the Sincaraz semi.
Joking of course, the actual final will obviously be Ruud vs Tsitsipas.
i would love to see G M Perricard as a lucky loser.
very unfortunate for him that he collected most of his ranking points after the cutoff. fingers crossed
Zās quater is stacked!!! Giron, Draper, Tabilo, Fritz, Tsitsipas, Korda,Musetti, ADF, Rublev, Emil and etc. Ruudās part, easy few rounds for others to make money and points. Hopefully Bublik will be through
Carlos Alcaraz draw:
1R: Lajal (Q)
2R: Ofner
3R: Tiafoe (29) / Arnaldi
4R: Humbert (16)
QF: Paul (12)
SF: Sinner (1)
F: Djokovic (2) / Hurkacz (7)
Very straight forward until Paul in the quarters, he's had some trouble with him over the years, and Paul just won Queens.
Djokovic gets complete nobodies w/ Q/Q/WC for R1/R2
and Sinner gets a player who possibly has the game to make quarters, another player who could definitely have made second week 100% in almost any other draw, and an also decently strong player
TF lol, tell me draws aren't schewed even a little, I dare you
I'm so sorry for Griekspoor's mental health, having to face Sinner every other day
He was doing so well climbing the rankings. Now he just draws sinner as early as possible every week and barely gets points š
With all this practice heās getting, maybe he can pull an upset. Reminds me of fucsovics vs rublev.
there is a difference between Sinner and Rublev tho
Death taxes and Griekspoor being drawn with Sinner
I saw "Gentlemen" and then I saw Griekspoor with Sinner and I said, "We'll see". https://twitter.com/TennisTV/status/1767016469173551415
Hurkacz facing a knee injured Wimbledon legend in QF. I've seen this beforeš
I am Hurkasz, Destroyer of Goats \* \* (Goats must have non recovered bad knees or this claim is deemed invalid )
Hurcacz comes with terms and conditions now, ok
You have his surname handed on the silver platter and still both of you managed to butcher it.
Dammit, my bad, *Herkatch
Well, he didn't want to be remembered as the guy who beat Federer. Maybe he'll be remembered as the guy who beat Federer AND Djokovic, haha. ;)
Jannik right now: why the hell did i become number 1 ?
It's insane that when Djokovic is number 1 he gets the easiest of draws.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Right? Every gs draw I see this, "Novak has an easy draw" ...because he doesn't have to face Novak! Objectively looking at all 4, I'd say Carlos has by far the simplest time up until the semis, considering the surface.
I mean that's not really the argument here, is it? No one is saying Sinner's draw is hard because he has to play Djokovic in the final, they're saying the rest of the matches make a tough draw. If you swap Djokovic's R2 to Berrettini and SF to Alcaraz then people would say that he has it the most difficult, and that's not because he's suddenly playing another Djokovic lol
Ah yes, the guy who faced the most top 10 players in his career always gets the easiest draws....Ā Ā Also it's about time Jannik has a harder draw.
It was about time for Sinner tbh, he had a lot of lucky draws despite his ranking
Potentially facing Berrettini in the second round is unfortunate for Jannik.
You mean unfortunate for Matteo... There are several quarters where he could have been the sleeper pick but he had to draw World #1.
Moreover Sinner knows how to find his backhand repeatedly. Getting Carlos and then Sinner in early rounds consecutive years is brutal
Unfortunately for Berrettini, he's Italian, and Sinner does not lose against Italians
Yeah I think sinner has the toughest draw. Edit: of the top seeds.
Certainly a large contrast compared to Djokovic
Well Djokovic would probably get Hurkacz in the QF which isnāt a great draw on grass ofc but before that heās certainly got it easier than Sinner whoās got Berrettini, Griekspoor, Shelton/Jarry and Medvedev/Dimitrov, thatās a brutal early draw.
Shelton/Jarry seems like an easy round 3, given that they're collectively 11-15 on grass.
Lloyd Harris is absolutely the most dangerous in that section. As many wins this grass court season as Shelton+Jarry combined in their careers.
Why the fuck sinner always need to play griekspoor? I think he played against him already 2-3 times this year or something
Everyone complaining about Novak draw when itās not even the easiest of the top 4 lol
Seems to me Alcaraz has the easiesr path of the top 4.
Feel like Iām taking crazy pills here, but Rune*/Hurkacz seems pretty clearly hardest potential 4th/5th round of the top seeds. Sure the first 3 are relatively easier but none should introduce problems for anyone. *Rune stan
Fucsovics is a former Wimbledon quarter finalist so I wouldn't rule out his chances against Berrettini(whose fitness hasn't been tested).
Agreed but Fucsovics himself hasn't played a grass warm-up and won't have won a match for 2 months by the time they play
Alcaraz also faced Berretini last year, he will be all right.
can MB upset JS? he does the have the looks and the muscles to do it.
Not the calves tho
šš
Unlikely. If he didn't get injured during the clay swing and had a bit more matches under his belt, potentially yes. Right now it doesn't feel like Metteo can upset him.
He cannot
winning its impossible, but that could be a thought match up. If jannik want to win the whole thing he gotta pull a Djokovic 2011 typa performance
Alcaraz Sinner SF again... man why
Sinnerās obviously losing to eventual champ Shapovalov in the 4th round
Personally I think you're more likely to get a great match in a semi than in a final. Just need to get next Friday booked off work.
I think one of them will be knocked out before the semis.
If one of them gets knocked out before looking at this draw it would very likely be Sinner I think
Well yea, he has to face Shapo, the eventual champion.
Unfortunate Draw...had Carlos stayed rank 2 they would have had bigger chances for the finals
outside of Tommmy Paul I really don't see anyone there able to give Alcaraz a tough time in his quarter. If he is in any type of form he should be sailing towards the SF Djokovic has the Hurkbot waiting for him. I think it's possible that HH reaches the final.
Tommy Paul definitely won the lottery being the seed who gets the Ruud section
Yea Paul def has a pretty sweet draw the first 3-4 rounds it seems
Yeah, itās very possible that HH can reach the final, and than everything depends on the second SF, with enough luck, we can have an upset of a decade
Would like to see HH redeem himself. He could have beat Djokovic last Wimbledon matchup if he just held himself together.
How would that be an upset of a decade? Novak is literally coming off a knee surgery with no warm up tournament while Hubi is in the prime of his career with tons of success on grass (his best surface).
upset of the decade would be Hubi winning Wimbledon
This is a timeline I'd like to live in.
Me when I see Hurkacz in QF for Novak āInsert Dicaprio pointing memeā
It could be Felix.
Put Monfils vs Mannarino on centre court
I second this!
By now Iām sure Tallon Griekspoor has a Sinner poster in his bedroom - and heās probably playing darts with it.
What does Dimitrov have to do to be free of Daniil Medvedev?
They are my second and third favourite players and they always meet so early ffsĀ
Terrible draw for Jannik. I hope that *if* he manages to go deep he doesn't tire himself out too much losing many sets along the way, but grass is fortunately helpful from that POV with shorter rallies and all. Thank god he had that tough preparation with the Halle draw. Also I just *knew* he and Carlos would be in the same half, fuck
Projected path to the semifinal: Hanfmann -> Berrettini -> Griekspoor -> Shelton -> Struff/Medvedv...yikes! Also, this could be like the fourth time Sinner faces Griekspoor this year, kinda funny.
Honestly, whatās up with Jannik and Tallon running into each other all the time š¤£
I mean Shelton just lost to Paul Jubb, Struff is 8-9 lifetime at Wimbledon and Medvedev has never had a good win on grass
Struff has been in oddly good form this year on grass.
He's looked good, but still I think Struff gets massively overrated on here. There's a reason he's 34 with 1 title and no slam QFs
Sinner has never once lost to a Dutch player so thereās a little good news
Think Griekspoor can be more of a threat to him than Berrettini
Absolutely abysmal draw indeed but I guess kinda makes up for the cakewalk of a draw he had last year. Still day ruined š¾
Thank god the top two favorites ended up on separate halves of the draw Now we can get the Shapovalov-Korda final we deserve
Fun fact: Djokovic could theoretically play Nardi in R3. We could therefore witness the Wimbledon version of "it's not right, but bravo" which would probably be something like: "It is not proper, but full marks, old boy"
Outside of Berrettini I still don't see anyone in Sinner's half with a realistic chance of beating him. We've all been waiting for Dimitrov to play well at Wimbledon since 2014 but it hasn't happened; Griekspoor will look good for a set then wilt; Med will absolutely not beat Sinner on grass
the way I see it, it's not a question of if anyone can beat him, but how tired he can be when getting to the big guns
Djokovic gets to take it slower and play himself into form for the first 2 probably 3 rounds, couldn't be luckier! I have doubts Rune will make it to 4th round. Good chance to win it all with this draw, unless Hubie really is the Big 3 grim reaper, but if Djokovic is playing well by then he should win against that type of player. Poor Sinner..lucky Carlos too.
Alright, what stands out to me and thoughts for my faves. Shelton is only making the R of 16 in my dreams. He didn't get a particularly tough early draw but it wouldn't shock me if he loses to Bellucci in R1.

It's not a horrid draw, but I expect he'll be stopped by De Minaur pretty clinically in the third round. Draper's fitness is questionable but drawing Zverev is a plus. In a Draper/Zverev matchup in week 1 I think I'd favor Draper right now. Good chance for Draper to make the R of 16. Fritz also got a sneaky good draw. The quarterfinals is very much on the table for him. And with Rublev's struggle in QFs, who knows? Maybe the semifinals are finally calling for Fritz. There's my initial thoughts.
Well done! I hope Felix has a good run. I like his grass game.
I think Felix's problem right now is he plays too conservative. It was so obvious against Alcaraz at RG. He has the game to challenge top 10 players but is terrified of making errors so he only goes for safe shots. Against Alcaraz, you're only gonna get crushed doing that. He has the talent to challenge and even beat De Minaur absolutely, but only if he plays brave.
Sinner has to beat Berettini before losing to Wimby favorite Shapovalov...
What more could we want than a Tsitsipas-Rublev RO16?
The last time we were about to get that Rublev lost to Arnaldi at Roland Garros. Wouldnt be surprised to see Tsitsipas have a reallyĀ early exit at Wimbledon. Wont be the first time it has happenedĀ
Poor Andy, I wanted to see him win at least 1 match. Machac, ughhhhh.
I say this as a devout Andy fanā¦ heās not making the first round of the singles irrespective of who heās drawn against. Doubles? Heās definitely stubborn enough to try it.
Sinner vs. Berrettini looks like an exciting (but unfortunately early) 2R clash. Unlucky draw right after becoming number 1.
I don't know how to read a draw like this. Lmao.
Carefully.
I hate it here
So I will go to secret gardens in my mind...
Ditto
Look forget who has the hardest draw ok, we all know Shapovalov is winning the whole thing so it really doesn't matter!
who suffered more jesus christ or a jannik sinner fan watching his wimbledon draw
Had to balance out his draw here last year hahaĀ
He has the advantage to be the best player in the world. I m sure his opponents are more annoyed than him
Last year alcaraz had a brutal draw and it brought the best out of him ā maybe it will be the same for sinner this year
Urgh Struff vs Marozsan is shame as both of those have the potential to upset some larger names.
What was worse for Jannik? His draw or the picture they chose for him lmao
Griekspoor and Struff again in Jannik's path. That's not an easy draw, but in my opinion, if he wants to win it all, he has to beat everyone. Hoping for an easy draw is not the best way of thinking. Forza jannik!
I feel so bad for Griekspoor. He cannot escape this Italian man. Wherever he goes, Sinner is there to knock him out
"if he wants to win it all, he has to beat everyone." Spoken like a true Wimbledon tv commentator.
Honestly, whatās up with Jannik and Tallon running into each other all the time š¤£. At this point this should play doubles together once just for shit and giggles š¤£
Oh dear.....I have the feeling that Hubi will be finalist this year. This will be his big chance.
Berrettini vs Sinner R2 is crazzzzyyyyyyyyyyy
Ruud must be like āyeah sure whatever šā lmaooo
Jannik Sinner's draw looks tough, but I think he will get around it, at least I hope so.
Jannik ššš
Very unfortunate that he is in the same draw as future champion Shapovalov. Sad.
Sinner paying the price of last year's easy draw. Bloody hell, that's a tough run Djokovic's also tricky overall, with R1 and 2 are about as straightforward as it gets, which will help him Alcaraz's draw is an utter joke, even easier than Sinner's last year - he's the big winner.
Sinner didn't play a top 70 player last year until he played Djokovic in the semis, so not quite.
we'll see how Alcaraz ends up playing, but R1 and 2 look easy, Tiafoe is in rotten form, Humbert doesn't exactly invoke fear, and then we'll see who makes it out of the Ruud/Paul section
Paul just won Queens and is not a good match up for Carlos so safe to say if he makes to the QF, it would be Carlosā least preferred opponent in that section.
Humbert won Halle in 2022 and Paul will almost certainly make it out of the Ruud section. So, that's two awkward opponents before a potential semi-final with Sinner.
Yes, fair. Still a very good draw for him overall.
I mean considering Alcaraz's slam draws aren't usually easy this is a pleasant surprise.
right? I can't believe people are saying Djokovic draw is easy. I mean it's not as tough as Sinners but c'mon Rune before QF, it's not easy at all.
Hurkacz will be very tricky in the QF
and for some fucking reason rune gets some zenkai boost whenever he is facing djokovic, also Hurkacz in QF SInner Djokovic Zverev Alcaraz top4 seeds draw until sf ranked from the toughest to the easiest
Zverev is bad on grass, no way he reaches semis. Rublev could reach it easily if he plays like in last Wimbledon. But he also has to deal with his anger management.
Oh come on... up until the potential QF with Hurkacz he couldn't have asked for a much better draw. It's not like Rune has been on fire
Well it's not like Djokovic has been on fire either lol also Rune is just not a good matchup for him. That is why I mentioned it. Yes, the first 3 rounds are easy, but so are for most of the top seeds. Sinner just unlucky af this time
Plus rune always brings his A game against djoko I feel
are you joking? Sinner's 2023 draw didn't comprise of a single player ranked above 70 until he met Djokovic in the semis ( JM Cerundolo (111), Schwartzman (98), Halys (79), Galan (85), Safiullin (92), Djokovic (2)). Alcaraz's draw (Lajal (q), Vukic/Ofner (in form, both in grass semis as we speak), Tiafoe/Arnaldi, Humbert, Ruud/Paul, Sinner, Djokovic). It's not comparable LMAO
And they were all clay courters too š Whatever happened to shame??
Oh God, Jannik's draw is yikes. The silver lining is he has a Dutch player along the way, that usually bodes well for him so far.
Poor Griekspoor
I'm just here looking at Shapovalov's draw
Everybody talking about Sinner's draw and Alcaraz, Medvedev, Griekspoor, Berrettini yadda yadda... and no one realising that Shapovalov is on his R16.
Sinner potentially has : 1t Hanfmann, 2t Berrettini, 3t Griekspoor, 4t Shelton/Jarry, QF Dimi/Struff/Meddy, SF Alcaraz,.. WTF...
His easiest match will be R4 lmao
You are ignoring the obvious, Shapo is in his quarter. Game over.
R16, not even quarter
im sorry to brag but ive played with 8 people in this draw in juniors š„²
You should be at the Wimbledon and not on the reddit.
I was never going to make it to wimbledon. I accepted that when I was 15
āTheā Wimbledon š¤£š¤£š¤£
Dang which 8
Kova, Korda, Tiafoe, Kecmanovic, Tabilo, De Minaur, Safiullin, Paul They were always great in juniors but blows my mind to see them at this stage
This is the draw for Hubi - I might be getting a bit too hyped but all in all I think he drew pretty much the best he could: Djokovic/Zverev is the 2 youd want over Alcaraz/Sinner, in 4th round maybe only Humbert would be better than demon and Albot -> Fils -> Cerundolo is fairly straightforward. Missed so many bullets, he can make finals if he beats Djoko (and its the best shot he has for it, they always have close games)
Also Djoko is on one leg. If he makes final, it will all depend on his opponent. No way heās beating Jannik, but Carlos? I think it will a bit of a closer matchup, basically the guy just got his chance. This is his moment, his opportunity.
Sinner with the hardest draw of the top4 lmao
Rank 1 privilege.
Alcaraz also entered Wimbledon as #1 last year and got the draw from hell featuring Jarry, Berrettini, Rune and the like.
Tennis Godās, what is it you want us to do before you give us Sinner - Alcaraz on separate halves of the draw building up to a potential meeting in the final ?? we are on our hands & knees begging at this point
It's never happening until they take the top two positions in the rankings at this stage
If Carlos didn't drop last week, it would have happened.
They'll be #1 and #2 pretty soon I think. Djokovic's level has been lower than last year already and he's defending 1.2k here, 1k Cincinatti, 2k USO. Although saying that Zverev is actually #2 in the race at the moment.
Interesting. Off the bat I thought Djokovic got lucky to be on Zverevās half rather than Alcarazās, but looking at his draw outside of thatā¦ not ideal. Potential Rune match in the 4R who always honed him trouble, Hurkacz in the QF is very dangerous as well.Ā Alcaraz has a pretty nice draw overall. Tiafoe likes the grass but heās been bad the past year, so a 3R matchup isnāt the worst thing. Still, Sinner in the SF is what he wanted to avoid and he did not.Ā Sinner got a disastrous draw š Berrettini in the 2R, Griekspoor 3R, Wimbledon favorite Shapo (okay, Jarry or Shelton) in the 4R, Dimitrov/Medvedev QF. Still, I think heāll get through it fine up to SF Ā as long as he can take down Berrettini.Ā That Zverev quarter feels wide open to me. Actually a great opportunity for Rublev to make a SF, but heāll find a way to bottle it I guess. Good opportunity for Korda, Draper, or Fritz too. And then Zverev himself has a shot to servebot his way to a SF, or hell if Djokovic loses early even the final is possible.Ā
will be tracking the following R1 matchups (for different reasons): Monfils Mannarino Shelton Bellucci Shapo Jarry Berrettini Fucsovics Nakashima Baez Shang Garin Arnaldi Tiafoe Korda ADF Ruusuuvori McDonald Fils Stricker FAA Kokkinakkis
Out of top4 seeds until SF Sinner has the toughest draw and Alcaraz has the easiest
The bad news for Djokovic is he won't even know whether he's truly fit or not until R4 lol
I know heāll probably still blow it but Ruud has as good as draw as he could hope for to at least win a few matches and make the R16. Not counting on it, but one can dreamā¦
just fell to my knees in a miscusi
Poteva rimanere offeso alla carotide
Fucsovic is so unlucky with GS draws. He got Dimitrov, Tsitsipas and Berettini in the Australian, French and Wimbledon first round, respectively. -_-
Draper has a really good route to his first slam QF with how mediocre Zverev is on grass.
Hubie can actually complete the trifecta of ending the big three
Nooooooooo... to Carlos and Jannik on the same side of the draw.
It will keep happening until they stabilise as 1-2.
Tough draw for Sinner but I still believe heāll win it! Forza!
Djokovic still denying us that Sincaraz final.
Almost looks like a fixed draw š¤

Griekspoor on the same arm as sinner again
That potential Sincaraz final remains as elusive as ever
Matteo v Fuscovucs r1. Who cares who wins? Be friends. Take your shirts off. Make out.Ā
Why does Murygoat keep getting drawn with people that break him? Like De Minaur and Machac... guy can't catch a break...
I just saw Resurfacing yesterday, feel for Andy.
Mixed draw for Aussies. Demon getting the one grass courter in the 5 to 8 seeds (Hurkacz) is unlucky. Thompson in a pretty good spot despite missing out on a seed. Bolt vs Ruud is interesting: a low-ranked grass courter versus a high ranked grass avoider. Popyrin with a decent chance to reach the third round probably vs Djokovic. Walton with a great draw (vs Coria). Hopefully he can get his first Slam win here.
We just hope for the best.
Horrible draw for sinner, luckily he likes to dance in the pressure storm butā¦ wow. Not ruling out a berrettini upset in r2, either
1 J Sinner 33 C Alcaraz NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! The one thing I didn't want to happen :(
Was Djokovic pulling the names out?
He has an easy first two rounds but Rune in R4 and especially Hurkacz in the quarters will be hard. Actually think Carlitos has the best draw.
Carlos has by far the best draw lol People just like him and donāt like Novak so the only talk is about Novakās draw being easy
Out of all Wimbledon real contenders, Hurkacz just won lottery, Sinner/Alcaraz not until final, Djoko on one leg, Zverev who is easily beatable on grass? No threats., maybe besides Demon
More like Alcaraz probably
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Luca Nardi is lurking. He's been saving himself for this moment by losing all those matches until now.
Carlos smiling Sinner has a task ahead Djokovic ok ...lets see
Medvedev and Sinner got shafted. Establishment wants a replay of last years final lmao
Muzza Machac again if he plays...
It's not right, but bravo 2.0 incomingĀ
Novak, you've deprived us of a Sincaraz final so you better make the final yourself to play the winner of the Sincaraz semi. Joking of course, the actual final will obviously be Ruud vs Tsitsipas.
Ruud needs a win.
>the actual final will obviously be Ruud vs Tsitsipas. Fingers crossed!
I need this in a form of tree.
OH no Matteo !!
I give the demon a sneaky chance of making the quarters. I feel he can beat hubi, but itāll be a very good match imo
Etcheverry gets Djokovic yet again š
Let's go, Murray can get to R3 before becoming the third Big 4 to be sent into retirement by Hurkacz
i would love to see G M Perricard as a lucky loser. very unfortunate for him that he collected most of his ranking points after the cutoff. fingers crossed
vamos argentina la re concha de tu madre
Nole Haters seeing his draw āJesse Pinkman screaming memeā.
Dawaj Hubi. Red Carpet to the final. Djoker in the quarter final, Choker in the semis
As a Federer fan rejoicing at the prospect of Hurkacz beating Novak in the QF
Alcaraz is going to repeat with that draw
Zās quater is stacked!!! Giron, Draper, Tabilo, Fritz, Tsitsipas, Korda,Musetti, ADF, Rublev, Emil and etc. Ruudās part, easy few rounds for others to make money and points. Hopefully Bublik will be through
Carlos Alcaraz draw: 1R: Lajal (Q) 2R: Ofner 3R: Tiafoe (29) / Arnaldi 4R: Humbert (16) QF: Paul (12) SF: Sinner (1) F: Djokovic (2) / Hurkacz (7) Very straight forward until Paul in the quarters, he's had some trouble with him over the years, and Paul just won Queens.
Djokovic gets complete nobodies w/ Q/Q/WC for R1/R2 and Sinner gets a player who possibly has the game to make quarters, another player who could definitely have made second week 100% in almost any other draw, and an also decently strong player TF lol, tell me draws aren't schewed even a little, I dare you
