lichtie23 Posted June 13, 2018 Share Posted June 13, 2018 The grass season has already started with tournaments in Stuttgart (ATP), s-hertogenbosch (ATP/WTA) and Nottingham (WTA) this week. Wimbledon kicks off on July 2nd. With the men’s final landing on the same day as the World Cup final. Roger Federer has returned at Stuttgart this week after taking the entire clay court season off. Will Andy Murray be fit? Can Jo Konta have a decent few months? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peasy23 Posted June 13, 2018 Share Posted June 13, 2018 Dan Evans into the quarter finals at Nottingham. Nadal pulls out of Queens Club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loki Posted June 13, 2018 Share Posted June 13, 2018 I'd imagine Evans will get a main draw wildcard. Hopefully they give wild cards to Aidy McHugh, Katie Boulter and Katie Swan instead of the usual British jobbers. I don't see the point in Nadal signing up for Queens he pulls out every year, and then has a horrible Wimbledon. The Queens draw could be fucking wild, Murray, Djokovic, Wawrinka and Berdych all unseeded. Wawrinka and Murray will definitely not be seeded for Wimbledon, and there is an outside chance Novak could slip out of the top 32 as well. It will be interesting to see if Serena gets seeded, they aren't as tied to the seedings like the mens side is. Hopefully we go back to the top 16 being seeded only soon.

Loki Posted June 16, 2018 Share Posted June 16, 2018 Murray confirms his return will be at Queens Club. Draw at 12pm. Could be some outrageous first round matches.Wimbledon draw will be interesting too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loki Posted June 16, 2018 Share Posted June 16, 2018 Possibly Edmund in Round 2, Raonic, Cilic then Djokovic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Lambies Doos Posted June 16, 2018 Share Posted June 16, 2018 Oof. Tough draw but amazing to see him back. Tennis hasn't been the same.I persume he won't get a Wimbledon seed based on his record there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loki Posted June 16, 2018 Share Posted June 16, 2018 Nope you have to top 32 to be seeded. They then apply the grass court formula to decide seeedings Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elixir Posted June 17, 2018 Share Posted June 17, 2018 I see Federer won his 98th ATP title in Stuttgart earlier. Guess it would be fitting if he wins his 99th in Halle next week, with the 100th then coming at Wimbledon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Widge Posted June 19, 2018 Share Posted June 19, 2018 Kyrgios has started well, this will be tough Except now he’s totally tanking it. [emoji23]Possibly a good thing for Murray actually, getting balls launched at him and just to see if he’s lost his reactions. So far he’s not. Not much of a test physically, but it’ll help.
