 WIMBLEDON: MANIC MONDAY PREVIEW

No play on the Middle Sunday and then both sides of the men’s and women’s draws go at it on Monday in the Round of 16. Wimbledon is just begging the Tennis Gods for rain.

There are so many juicy matches in store. I was going to list my top five, but it’s too hard to decide. So here are my Top 8 Manic Monday Matches: Soderling vs. Federer, Safina vs. Mauresmo, Williams vs. Ivanovic, Murray vs. Wawrinka, Berdych vs. Roddick, Hewitt vs. Stepanek, Wozniacki vs. Lisicki, Radwanska vs. Oudin.

Tomorrow’s order of play is below. What gets you licking your chops?
