In the men's draw the defending Champion Rafal Nadal has his work cut out to retain the his title.
Rafa is not playing at the level you would expect him to be playing. However I think he will retain his title.
He will have stiff competition from Novak Djokovic and Andy Murray who have been playing well and I am sure they will both push Rafa to limit if he is to retain his title.
In the women's draw the defending champion Serena Williams will also have stiff competition to retain her title.
Both Li Na and Maria Sharapova will provide Serena with some stiff competition.
However I think barring injury Serena will retain her title as others don't have the speed or Serena's serve.
From a British point of view Heather Watson is our sole female representative and her realistic goal is to try and pick up as many ranking points as possible.
Hopefully Heather will at least make it to third round then she will pick up some very much needed ranking points to help her get back into the top fifty.
Overall I am expect both Rafa Nadal and Serena Williams to retain their titles but it will not be easy for either of them.
