With Wimbledon about to start, who are your favorites?

I think Kerber and Keys are my favorites to reach the final on the women's side, and Federer and Del Potro are my favorites on the men's side.

    I don't really watch women's tennis, but my favourite on the men's side has to be Roger Federer.

        What a thrashing. He's gotta feel good moving forward. And he really shouldn't have any issue till maybe the quarterfinals.

          I'm working at the tournament and I was a bit busy this morning so I didn't actually get to see the match, but three relatively quick sets and done.

            That's so awesome. I would love to spend the whole two weeks there. I spent one day at Wimbledon a few years ago and it was pretty much a dream come true.

              It's my first year here and I am pretty surprised how excited people get about this tournament. The number of people camping on sidewalks and in the park is nuts and watching the people run in the entrance in the mornings is like watching Black Friday shoppers. Unlike any other tournament I have been to.

      The women's side has a lot of interesting narratives with resurging Kerber and Wonzniacki, Serena coming back from maternity leave and Kvitova from the assault, and a bunch of young Americans...

    After Day 1, Federer, Cilic, and Querrey probably had the best showings. Dmitrov couldn't handle the pressure of playing Wawrinka and is out early. Serena looked very solid on serve which is big for her, and Wozniacki wasn't even tested. Keys also pummeled a weaker opponent. Fun first day!
