In this week's special preview podcast, Erik Gudris and Richard Pagliaro join Chris Oddo to look ahead to the Wimbledon fortnight.

Here are the topics we canvas:

Can we really read anything into the grass court warm up results as indicators before Wimbledon?

The draw’s out, did it change anything about the way you view this Wimbledon playing out?

Is Djokovic the best men’s grass-court player in history if he wins this title?



Has Swiatek played herself into favorite status with her performance at Bad Homburg?

How is this year’s draw different, with Russian and Belarusian players in the mix again? How will Wimbledon’s decision to allow them to play impact the fortnight?

What is your most outrageous pick for a run to the semis or beyond?

How much has Alcaraz improved on grass – and as a player in general – since last Wimbledon?

Can we expect anything from Berrettini or Kyrgios?

What do we make of Venus Williams and what does it mean for Wimbledon to have her in the draw?

What do we think of Wozniacki’s comeback?

Your favorite first-rounder, men’s and women’s?

You’re favorite potential round of 16 matchup and why?

You’re winners and why?

Does Gauff have a better shot at Swiatek on grass than any other surface?
