Roddick is the defending champ and #3 seed but I don't give him much chance to win. Federer & Djokovic are set to meet in the semis where Roger can exact his revenge on the young Serb. Nadal has a good shot of getting to the finals but he's got Youzhny, Blake, Gonzalez & Berdych on his side of the draw....all of whom have beaten him on hardcourts.
Nadal had big problems with the ball they were using in Montreal and they are using the same ball in Cincinnati too. Maby Nadal finds a way to do spin enough with that ball but maby not and his second match is most likeely on the third round against Youzhny who hurted himself in Wimledon after leading the match 2-0 and Nadal showed no mercy, now it is time for revenge.
I do not know how well Djokovic will performance after his win and surely if they will meet with Federer he will give a great fight but I believe Roger will get his revange if Djoko is not in his head. Roger showed nothing special in Montreal so I was wondering a surpriser from Roger's side of the draw but can not see seriously anybody. Maby Gasquet but he should beat both Djoko and Roger what is too much imo. I can see Roddick going to the final if everything goes ok, he has showed great game now but still hard to believe him beating Roger or Djoko in the final but everything is possible.
