(Updated after Bernard Tomic was replaced with Mikhail Youzhny)
  • Roger Federer is the most likely player to win the tournament, with a 23.93% chance of winning the whole thing, with Rafael Nadal next at 9.61%. The 3rd most likely is Stan Wawrinka with 8.97% and Milos Raonic 4th with 8.15%
  • Paolo Lorenzi has a really easy draw compared to other players with a similar ELO rating. I have him as the 41st most likely winner, while he is only the 54th highest ranked player here.
  • On the other hand, Mikael Ymer (note: who is probably overrated by my system) has the toughest draw. He is the 65th highest ranked player here, but is the 75th most likely winner of the tournament (Ymer's Round 1 opponent Robin Haase has the next toughest draw).
  • The toughest 1st round draw went to Ryan Harrison, as he's the 71st most likely player to progress to round 2, but he's ranked 37th of the competitors. 
  • Adrian Mannarino got the easiest 1st round draw, as he's the 41st most likely player to advance to round 2, while he's the 75th highest ranked competitors here.
Here's the full table. Want to be the 1st to hear of new updates: Follow @tennis_elo on Twitter.
