Wimbledon Up to Now

Justine is fighting strong in the First Round only dropping 11 games in 3 matches. She will face Patty Schnyder who fouth off a difficult Alona (Congrats to Alona). This will be an easy match for Justine as Schnyder has never been further than 4th round in a Grand Slam. Dissapointments for Tiantian Sun and Ashley Harkleroad to leave in the first Round.
Daniela Hantuchova and Katarina Srebotnik's match should be interesting as they both don't look great whilst the winner will have to face the onslaught of Serena Williams who should wipe off Milagros Sequera.
Jelena Jankovic isn't looking invinceable though with easy matches against Keothavong and Gajdosova she had a taxing match against Lucie Safarova. She will then face another possible upseter Marion or Shahar both capable of doing damage to the draw. Sadly Gisela Dulko and Flavia Pennetta had to leave us in the first round.
I was so excited about Naomi and Martina's match that at one stage I thought Naomi could win it but she just let it run down the drain in the third set. Well she looks like she will face Michaell Krajicek once she defeats Laura who took out my Fantasy Tennis player Sybille Bammer!
Ana Ivanovic will probably face Nadia Petrova who is looking good here. Then we have Vaidisova/Mauresmo group. Both of them should play in the fourth round which is worrying as Mauresmo is looking good for at the moment and could be a semi finalist here.
Svetlana will face the young Agnieszka Radwanska of Poland and then probably play Elena here.
and Finally Venus will face Maria most likely in the fourth round with both looking strong at the moment. Sadly Dinara, Kateryna, Shuai and Melanie South went out before the third round.
Predictions (4th Round)
Justine (Confirmed)
Patty (Confirmed)
Daniela (3 Sets)

Quater Finals
Justine Vs Patty (Justine to win in 2 Sets)
Daniela Vs. Serena (Serena to win in 2 Sets)
Jankovic Vs. Peer (Jankovic to win in 3 Sets)
Martina Vs. Michaella (Difficult to say) Martina because she has more experience
Ana Vs. Nadia (Difficult to say) Nadia because she is playing better
Nicole Vs. Amelie (Amelie to win in 3 Sets)
Svetlana Vs. Elena (Svetlana to win in 3 Sets)
Venus Vs. Maria (Maria to win in 3 Sets)

Justine Vs Serena
Jankovic Vs Martina
Nadia Vs Amelie
Svetlana Vs Maria

In the mens Federer will play either Tursunov or Haas who are in a dead heat at the moment, though I would like Marat to win (slim chance)
James Blake will play Fernando Gonzalez, Whilst Roddick will probably be playing Mathieu. Gasquet should go through to play Tsonga, whilst Monfils looks to play Baghdatis.
Hewitt will have a good challenge from Canas before facing Djokovic whilst Berdych will play Bjorkman and to rap up Youzhny against Nadal.
Federer Vs. Blake (If Gonzalez plays like he did in last two matches)
Roddick Vs. Gasquet (Could be a fright from Tsonga or even Vasselin)
Baghdatis Vs. Hewitt (There could be a lot of changes in this match e.g. Monfils, Nalbandian or Djokovic)
Bjorkman Vs. Nadal (should be finalized but Tomas may be a threat or Youzhny)
