Wimbledon 2011: Picking the Winners of Monday's Top 10 Specials

It seemed like yesterday we were speculating about potential Wimbledon action as we closed the doors on Stade Roland Garros.

Now, as the players have arrived on the dust-free grounds of the All England Club with the whole two weeks ahead, fans are offered an enticing menu of scintillating tennis matchups.

In the background we view the pristine, carefully maintained lawns and wait for the players to take the court on Monday, praying for good weather and competitive matchups.

While there are no guarantees, most give Nadal the nod in his opening round match with Michael Russell of the United States. By the same token, Andy Murray should be able to handle Daniel Gimeno-Traver of Spain.  

Similar assumptions can be made regarding Andy Roddick’s conquest of Andreas Beck. 

There are several other matches, however, where the outcome remains more in doubt.  

Here are 10 to ponder.
