The bottom half of the draw is day 1, so Jake's i***t of an opponent doesn't get an extra day to rest his injury. Joy rising.

Tennis Abstract rates Jack almost certain to win, 98%, and go to the last 16 when he runs into Alcaraz

Cam is rated only 37% to win.

Jake is rated 78% to win and go onto the last 32.

Jake ( or Nick ) has a very decent looking potential R2 draw - (28) Sebastian Baez (ARG) or Arthur Cazaux (FRA).

I'm thinking Jake will win either 0 or 2 matches with that R1 match one that could very much go either way.

My hope, and from what I've seen, is that Jake will be unfazed by any antics on the other side of the net. I imagine college tennis environments might have been good preparation for this...

Jake is also the much more match sharp of the two.

Nick is going to be very, very motivated though - home territory and all that

You think there is doubt that she will make it to the start line?

I think her latest press conference suggests Emma will play. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/tennis/articles/cwyj4qwgw70o
