This week, the semifinals are swapped: If Federer is to continue his streak, he’ll need to go through Djokovic just to reach the final. \u00a0The most dangerous lower-ranked players seem to be well distributed throughout the draw: Del Potro would face Djokovic in the quarters; Roddick could hit Federer in the third; Raonic could face Murray in the third, and Isner is lurking in Nadal’s quarter.<\/p>\n
If Fernando Gonzalez wants to make a run in his final tournament, he’ll have to go through Tomas Berdych in the second round–not exactly the easiest ask, even at the South American slam.<\/p>\n
Here are the complete projections for the draw as it stands now, without qualifiers placed:<\/p>\n
