Really? His immediate section doesn't have any huge threats. But could Dolgopolov be a problem in the fourth round. Where I think his biggest problem is, is that he has the biggest "floater" in the draw potentially lined up for the quarters: Juan Martin Del Potro. I think that's who all of the big four would have been most hoping to avoid in their quarter. (Having said that, he lost to Granollers, Tsonga and Blake last fall, but he's got to get back to top-five (at least) form soon, right?)

I'd agree if Delpo had done something at Sydney, but his straight set loss to Baghdatis doesn't look promising.

Nah both his and Nadal are equally easy

Lets look at it:
R-1, both open against qualifiers.
R-2, Rafa probably gets Haas, Rog, A. Beck
R-3, Rafa vs Ljubicic, Rog vs Melzer IF he gets that far
R-4, Rafa vs Lopez or Isner, both hard servers; Roger vs Dolgo or Verdasco who have done nothing.
1/4, Rafa vs Berdych, tough match. Fed vs Delpo (who lost to BAghs in straights) or Fish who's been disappointing so far.

I stand by my idea. They may not be far apart, but Rafa's is a tad harder.
