Well, I thought that Almagro was a dark horse for the FO way back, but I think his ability on clay is actually well known now and one of the favourites (outside of Fed and Nadal).

At WillHill, Almagro is the third favorite (tied with Nalbandian) for the title.

Almagro?
I want to see Jarko, Almagro and Nalbandian all in Nadals half of the draw and he have to face them in sucessive rounds ending with the SF.

Almagro?
Like everyone else, I'd have to agree about Almagro. I also think it would be a shock for Nalbandian to beat Nadal. Nadal has been so dominant and barely challenged, any loss for him would be a surprise. -- Luke Croll The alt.books.dean-koontz FAQ is at: http://home.earthlink.net/~abdk-faq/faq.htm The ABDK Castle is at: http://home.earthlink.net/~koontz-castle/
