VERDICT

The man the bookmakers see as the most viable alternative to Roger Federer. The Mallorcan has again been untouchable on clay this term but on hardcourts it has been a different story. Failed to reach the last four in either Toronto or Cincinnati, but the word round the campfire is he has been practicing well and wants to win this badly. Only a fool would back against a man who has lost just twice in eight meetings to the 'Fed Express'.
