For once Murray in Djokovic's half with Fed & Nadal in the same half. Was beginning to think the draws were fixed...

Great draw for Andy, Harrison first is a tough start but nothing Andy can't handle.A floating Gulbis is always dangerous but it looks like Harrison,Mallise, Gulbis/Llodra, Troicki, Tsonga, DJoko, Rafa.

Dangerous floaters like Del potro, Nalby Dr Evo and even Davydenko will be avoided!

I see there are SEVEN French players in Murrays quarter. Thats impressive, just shows how far the UK are behind!?

5 Brits out of 6 go out in the first round. No prizes for guessing which one is still in it. Really pathetic, couldn't even win one set.

The worst was Baltacha, being the highest ranked Brit losing to someone ranked a lot lower than her. And what makes it worse is this:

"For me, November and December was the best pre-season training block I've ever done."

"I know there is a potential second-round match with Kim Clijsters and while it would be brilliant to play Kim again, I'd be daft to get ahead of myself.

Whatever happens this week I will feel like I'm on the right track. The Australian Open is always just the beginning."

Just laughably embarrassing
