Welcome to Gaia! ::

The next Grand Slam event is in London at the most prestigious tennis tournament, The Championships at Wimbledon. With all the pressure of striving to hold the coveted trophy who do you think is going to win on both the men's and women's side?



For the men, current world number one Rafael Nadal will try to get a hold of the trophy for a consecutive year. Roger Federer to regain his Wimbledon title looking for his seventh title there! Perhaps Djokovic to steamroll back after losing his first match of the year in the semis of Roland Garros, also note that with the rankings being extremely close, Djokovic could be #1 at the end of this tournament. Some other names worth mentioning include Murray, Del Potro, Berdych, Roddick.



For the women, I'm super excited to say that both Williams sisters plan to return to Wimbledon. Starting with Serena, a comeback story is not new for her if you remember the 2007 Australian Open. Venus returning will be great to. Her serve out wide on the grass is to die for. Will the sisters have what it takes in order to make a deep run or perhaps win the tournament? Remember, the sisters are not ranked very high so its possible to have an intense match early on. Another name that people are starting to watch out for is Na Li. The winner of Roland Garros and finalist at the Aussie Open, you have to place her as one of the favorites...right? And what about world number one Wozniacki? Clijsters? Zvonareva the finalist from last years Championships? Sharapova? .. Who knows...
