Nadal out.

Draw: July 26.

Raonic is going out in the first round. He does not have the movement to do well on grass and he has been dropping serve far too often for how big a weapon it should be.

I hope Federer wins the Gold this time or at least only loses to Murray or Djokovic. It is frustrating that they are waiting so long to do the draw.

Bummed about Rafa, and concerned. I know athletes in general endure more regular physical pain that most of us imagine, but I have this feeling that with Rafa in particular lesser men would have already hung up the racket.

As tennis experts, come drop some knowledge on us in the Olympic forum.

No complaints here, Nadal's best friend takes out Nadal's b1tch.

Federer has now been seeded number one in 3 straight Olympics and not won.

Success has been evenly spread in 2012-

AO Djokovic
RG Nadal
WI Federer
OG Murray

Winner takes all at the US Open

It is really fun seeing these tournaments get split. I'll have to see how it pans out through the WTF before I say who my POY is, but I will say that whoever wins the US makes a strong statement that he's the best in the world right now. If it's any of the 4 but Fed, that guy probably has to be considered the front runner for #1 in 2013.
