Defending champion Andy Murray and top seed Stanislas Wawrinka will have to navigate difficult routes through the draw if they are to meet in the Aegon Championships final at The Queen’s Club on Sunday.
Andy Murray and Ernests Gulbis are part of another outstanding field at the Queen's Club's Aegon Championships, which begin on Monday. They are coming off semifinal showings at the French Open, where Murray and Gulbis lost to Rafael Nadal and Novak Djokovic, respectively.
Roger Federer dropped a set for the first time this fortnight but still managed to book a spot in the last 16 of the French Open with a 7-5, 6-7(7), 6-2, 6-4 victory over Dmitry Tursunov on Friday. Federer needed three hours and seven minutes to set up a meeting with Ernests Gulbis.
A second Wimbledon champion, last year's Aegon Championships runner-up and one of the form players of the year have joined Andy Murray, Tomas Berdych and Jo Wilfried Tsonga on the Aegon Championships entry list.
Juan Martin Del Potro continues to be hopeful of his left wrist will allow him to play in the upcoming Sony Open in Miami after quitting mid-match in the recent Dubai Duty Free Championships and then withdrawing from the ongoing BNP Paribas Open in Indian Wells after using a doubles match to gauge his fitness.

One day John Isner will win a match in straight sets but, in the meantime, the giant American is just happy to progress and he did just that against Rhyne Williams here under the light, reaching the semi-final of the Delray Beach Open by 4-6, 6-3, 6-2.
A depressing result so soon after Karlovic made the Memphis final. Any additional points will count for Kevin Anderson.
Steve Johnson, a four time NCAA titlist during his time at USC, scored the best win of his pro career in the second round of the Delray Beach Open by ousting top seed Tommy Haas 6-4, 2-6, 7-6.
This was not exactly a thrilling final (other than the odd moment when Marin Cilic managed to get a point replayed because the ball had been damaged). Tomas Berdych was never broken -- indeed, never faced a break point after his first service game -- and he converted three of four break points against Cilic. He won almost 60% of the points.
