Berretini/Murray first round is the standout for me. Horrible.
Rublev/Thiem is a close second.

For people saying that some first round matches are 'brutal' or 'horrible' because they pit two notable players against each other... I don't see it as necessarily a bad thing. It could be viewed from the perspective of showing how strong the draws have become across the entire draw - and that's a positive thing, isn't it?
Ostapenko - Yastremska... it will be interesting to see which of the two demonstrates the most unsportsmanlike behaviour...
Bouzkova has a good chance of beating Andreescu...
Azarenka - Kenin is also interesting - can Kenin finally kickstart a comeback?
I'm hoping Caty McNally will do well here. She finished the season well last year, and finally started showing some of the form that people have been hoping to see from her. Tough first round in Badosa, though...

This is ridiculous... but it's consistent with most of the world living in illusion and pretending that COVID basically no longer exists.
I imagine that medical professionals aren't very happy about it...

I say, bad luck for Murray and Thiem. Although I don't see Rublev going much further, I can't see Thiem beating him. He has been off the courts for a long time and decided not to play any warm ups. That lack of real match action, after coming from an injury, can only be conquered by the likes of the Big 3, not somebody like Thiem.
I can't see Murray beating Matteo. Right now, he simply does not have the movement to keep up with Berretttini.

I'm not picking Andy to win, but he kept up with Matteo fine at the US Open. A hard fought, closely played match that was not something that looked like the game had passed Andy by by any stretch, he definitely had his chances.

I like both players, but don't understand Badosa-McNally getting a mention here. I can think of 3 or 4 matches more noteworthy than that one.
