From what I hear, martina is on the same side as Serena and venus. JCaps is on the other side. So Martina will have to possible go through Serena, Venus, then Jcaps to win the title. Sounds like last yr to me!
Although I do believe that she will be on the same side as Venus. I did read in an article today that they are going to make it so that seeds 1 and 4 are on the same side and 2 and 3 on the other (unless the article is wrong and given some of the shoddy journalism work in tennis nowadays, who knows?)
I think it's random which sides 3 and 4 go on - last year, Martina (1) was seeded to meet Venus (3) and Lindsay (2) seeded to meet Monica (4) in the semis.
kart is right... it is randomly done by the computer
the only positions that are definite are the 1 and 2 seeds... 3 and 4 are then drawn out randomly... then 5,6,7,8.... then i think 9-12 then 13-16... or it could just be 9-16 onwards.... dont know about 17-32!
Guys, the draw comes out Friday 10AM Aussie time on the east! So yes, obviously the draw is not out yet.
Hmmm, on espn.com they said that No. 1 seed would play No. 4 seed and No. 2 seed vs. No. 3 seed. I'm pretty sure its a stupid journalist error, someone who doesn't know tennis. Since they said "Under the new 32 seed system...blah will play blah"
Wow...calm down people...the only sure thing is about #1 and #2 in opposite draws, #3 and #4 in opposite draws...the rest ...well...just be patient...another 16hours and we should know!!!!
After yesterday's match with Serena pulling out after being behind 5-4 to Meghann...someone who saw the match on TV said Serena went over on her ankle like turned 90 degrees..Ouch! So it might be a problem for her at AO and hopefully Martina will only have to face one Williams sister!! Best of Luck Marti!!
Well Hingis isn't getting any younger and she is going to be alot more injury prone in my opinion. She plays way too much IMHO too. So be careful what you wish for. I would never wish injury on anyone. But I guess some people are different.
