These year's tourney has more compelling stories than any of the other majors. Kim Clijsters...Rafa...A-Rodd...Andy Murray...that one Swiss guy who is apparently pretty good...

Can't wait for the real tennis to begin.

Oh yeah, and the tournament is in the best time zone too!

I can't wait for Roddick to retire so I don't have to hear any more stories about him actually being a contender for a title that doesn't involve hitting the ball as hard as one can.

Rooting for Andy, but let's be realistic here. It will me Murray/Nadal/Federer/Djokovic.

Not sure about Djokovic, but i agree the regulars will be there in the end. I'm also looking forward to seeing how Blake and Haas perform. Women's is horrible but i'll watch Sharapova any day

I gave up on Blake years ago...he just doesn't have enough talent and consistency to compete with the big boys. Played tennis at my high school though, so he is always my sentimental pick.

Just like previous years, Nadal will not make it past the semi's.

Heavy hitters in his part of the draw.

It's gonna be Roger and Serena. Are there any ugly Russian women? Safina is about the closest I've seen.
