Team GB are completely screwed.
Henman should win his first round match but the French guy that he'll probably face in the second round is pretty decent from what I've seen. If he did make it the third round then the rest of his journey would probably look like this: Ancic - Safin - Hewitt - Federer - Nadal. Not a chance for Tim, not a chance.
Rusedski has it even tougher. He could face Nadal in the third round which is pretty unlucky and to get there he's a got a couple of matches that won't be easy, especially with an American in the first round.
Murray still has to get past the qualifying stages and with him having a bad shoulder that's not guaranteed. If he did make it into the draw then it'd be tough for him to get very far because he'd alost certainly end up against one of the top seeds very early on.
It was looking petty good for GB just a few days ago. Rusedski's been on fantastic form, Henman had a great run last year at the US Open, and Murray's only been improving since Wimbledon. Looks like it'll be at least 2006 before a Brit win a Grand Slam again.

Unsurprising!
If an unknown up and coming American came to Wimbledon and threw up on the court i'm sure most people over here would give the same answer. After Rusedski and Henman's showing he's the best we've got for the future and that's so depressing at this time but hopefully he can become a champion at some time and not a bottler like Henman.

Agassi wins 7-6 (7-4), 7-6 (7-5), 7-6 (7-4).
But Agassi is a legend so it would be nice to see him walk away with one last trophy on his home tournament.
A Federer/Nadal final would be nice. It's never happened before, although obviously that was what the French Open semi was in all but name.
If Federer falls down a well and takes Nadal with him, then Agassi could win the tournament. He's playing well.
I like it when Karlo goes blundering through a tournament and, almost by accident, knocks out someone like Hewitt.
Unfortunately, it is not to be.
