[RIjdrVs3]

Main Draw - Johannesburg

[1] Jo-Wilfried Tsonga (FRA) - Thiago Alves (BRA)

Tsonga is playing against an MMA fighter?

[RIjdrVs3]

Still waiting for Ernie to get his first soft draw .

I wouldn't be too unhappy with where he placed here. Andreev may be the #1 seed, but hardly the favorite. And he does get a qualifier.

(now watch it wind up Tursonov)
