Three time Wimbledon finalist Andy Roddick takes on Spaniard Feliciano Lopez for a place in the fourth round of the 2011 Championships at Wimbledon, season's second Grand Slam event being played here at the All England lawn tennis Club in London, England. American Andy Roddick has been extremely successful on the hard courts and has several titles to his name. Similarly, his grasscourt results have been quite impressive with 4 titles at Queen's Club and three runner up finishes at Wimbledon, all to one man Roger Federer. Roddick is one of the most consistent tennis players on the ATP tour and has 30 singles titles to his name including a Grand Slam at the 2003 US Open. Roddick's opponent, Spaniard Feliciano Lopez's 2010 season is best remembered for ending Nadal's unbeatable run that stretched from Monte Carlo till Queen's Club Quarterfinals where Nadal lost the straight sets match on grass. This year, Lopez played another sensational three sets of tennis against former World No.1 Roger Federer, testing the Swiss to three tie-break sets before bowing out in a three hour plus marathon. Currently ranked No.44 in the world, Lopez has two career titles from Johannesberg (2010) and Vienna (2004). Both players have contested seven matches before and Roddick has recorded win in each one of them. In the pair's previous meeting recently, Roddick was taken the distance by the Spaniard but prevailed with a 7-6(2), 6-7(5), 6-4 scoreline. The American is definitely a favourite going into the match due to his experience and fine serve-and-volley play, that best suits the fast paced grasscourts of Wimbledon. Wimbledon Pick - Andy Roddick in four sets. Defending champion Rafael Nadal of Spain started his Wimbledon 2011 campaign on a high note, as he won his first two matches in straight sets. The Spaniard defeated Ryan Sweeting of USA in the 2nd Round of the Championships and now he will take on Gilles Muller. Tennis enthusiasts expected a dream clash between Nadal and Raonic in the third-round, but just after five games of his match against Gilles Muller, the Canadian Raonic pulled up with a hamstring injury and was forced to retire from Wimbledon. Nadal’s opponent Gilles Muller of Luxemburg has emerged as the most successful tennis player from his country. This 28 years old contender has all the experience, but he has not achieved much at a Grand Slam event. His best showing at Wimbledon is 3rd round appearance in 2005. Muller has a 3-1 win-loss record this year and he is still chasing his maiden title on tour. World No. 1 Rafael Nadal lost four ATP World Tour Tournament finals against Djokovic this year. But, the King of Clay managed to live up to the expectations of his massive fan base at Roland Garros, as he won the French Open title and kept his No. 1 Ranking intact. Nadal who is defending his title at Wimbledon this time is looking in sublime touch and Muller needs the Herculean effort to stop him at this juncture. Nadal has a 46-7 win-loss record this year with three titles to his name. This will be a third-meeting between the two contenders and both are evenly placed at 1-1 each. Interestingly, both those matches were held way back in 2005. Well, things have changed a lot since then and Nadal has also come a long way. Wimbledon Pick: Nadal in Straight Sets Three time major finalist Andy Murray takes on Croatian Ivan Ljubicic for a place in the fourth round of the 2011 Championships at Wimbledon, season's second Grand Slam event being played here at the All England lawn tennis Club in London, England. After a series of semifinal finishes at SW19, Britain's biggest hope Andy Murray is expected to do some substantial talking through his racquet in the home grand slam. Murray's impressively consistent performances at majors have helped him hold on to the top four spot in singles rankings for so long. After a runner up finish in Melbourne, Murray lost to eventual champion Rafael Nadal in the semifinals of Roland Garros. However, the major boost up came in the form of his most recent triumph on the green grass of Queen's Club. In the first two rounds here at Wimbledon, Murray had a contrasting on-court experience against his opponents but with a safe passage into the third round, he is ready to raise the level of his game. Murray's opponent, Croatian Ivan Ljubicic is currently ranked No.33 in the world. Winner of 10 ATP singles titles, Ljubicic's best Grand Slam performance came at the 2006 French Open where he reached the semifinals. Ljubicic also made it to the third round of Wimbledon in 2006 and 2007 editions. Both players have contested six matches before and the head-to-head is tied at 3-3. In the pair's previous meeting on hardcourt in Beijing last year, Ljubicic scored a straight sets win. Murray definitely has an edge in two aspects, surface and support. The crowd is going to ensure high spirits for the Scot and the fourth seed is extremely dangerous for any opponent on grass. Wimbledon Pick - Andy Murray in four sets.
