Third round
Fourth round

Tip for title: Andy Murray


Preparation counts for so much
when it comes to winning one of the
biggest prizes in sport and things
could not have gone better in recent
weeks for somebody as meticulous
as Murray. He is fitter than when
winning the title two years ago,
happier, calmer and more than
ready for the challenges that lie
ahead in the next fortnight.

Barry Flatmans ones to watch

Dark horse: Viktor Troicki


This time last year the Serb was about to
drop outside of the worlds top 800 as he
ended a year-long suspension for failing
to take a drugs test. Now he is back up to
24th in the world rankings and because
of his excellent grass-court form in recent
weeks, he has been elevated another
couple of places in seeds. Hes a danger
to anyone

Dark horse: Sabine Lisicki (Germany)


Any woman who can serve a tennis ball at
131 mph and unleash a record 27 aces, as
she did last week at Birmingham, has got
to be a danger on a fast grass court. Two
years ago the German demonstrated her
Wimbledon credentials when she reached
the final and this year all the top players
will dread facing the 18th seed.

Golden oldie Francesca Schiavone


Perhaps never really a Wimbledon
title contender but those who
witnessed first hand the sheer
incredulity the Italian experienced
when winning the French Open five
years ago, will never forget the
victorious smile on her face. She
turned 35 last Tuesday and remains
one of the true characters of
womens tennis.

TIp for title: Serena Williams (US)


The question as always isnt how
Serena will finish a Grand Slam
tournament but how she will start.
She may have 20 major singles titles
to her name but she is habitually
vulnerable in the opening rounds. At
the moment she is on course to
complete the Grand Slam this year
after winning both the Australian and
French Opens

Bright young thing Thanasi Kokkinakis


This time last year he didnt play at
Wimbledon because he went home to sit
the Australian equivalent of his A levels.
Since then the tall teenager from
Adelaide has passed quite a few tennis
examinations and currently stands 69th
on the world rankings. Recently he has
scored wins over far more experienced
opponents. He's certainly one to watch

Semi-finals

Golden oldie: Lleyton Hewitt


Sentimentality is not the Hewitt way so
there wont be any emotional farewells,
but the 2002 champion would love
nothing better on what he insists will
be his last Wimbledon performance
than to take out a few big names. He
undoubtedly would have won more
than two majors if a certain Roger
Federer hadnt emerged.

Bright young thing Belinda Bencic


Voted 2014s most impressive newcomer
in the Women's Tennis Association
awards, this 18-year-old protge of
Martina Hingis revels on English grass.
Last year she reached the third round at
Wimbledon and her improvement is
reflected in reaching the Dutch final in
s-Hertogenbosch two weeks ago,
followed by a good run at Eastbourne.
