Federer in the final. I can't predict who his opponent will be. It'd be surprising if Nadal makes it far.
As for the women, would love to see Hingis finally win a major but I don't think she has what it takes to make it all the way. I will be rooting for her though. Mauresmo will be in the final. |

I think Nadal can make the final atleast. Federer is out and out favorite but nadals game has improved tremendously on surfaces other than clay this year.
As far as women go, anyone but mauresmo and clijsters. A dream final to pleasure myself to would be hantuchova/ dementieva vs sharapova but il be backing hingis and henine hardenne:cool: |

James Blake is a bigger crowd fav
