Philipp never catches a break at a Slam draw. I'm convinced if there was a formula to calculate it, he'd be near the top in terms of percentage of difficulty in Slam opponents. (maybe I need to devise a formula to calculate this).

Yup, unlucky for PEHK. If you're a 17-32 seed, it is a bit unlucky to end up in the same 1/16th as Nadal, Federer, Murray or Djokovic.

So, the bad luck guys would be Tursunov, Troicki, Kohlschreiber and Fish.

Good luck guys rated between 17 and 23 would probably be Stepanek and Schuettler.

Sort of an even draw for Rafa and Rog. Rafa gets Murray and Rodddick but Fed gets Djokie with Soderling lurking early. All is all, I guess Roger has the easier draw.
