My Projected Winner will be placed in BOLD
ROUND OF 16 MATCH-UPS (Listed in order of seeds)
[1] MARIA SHARAPOVA (RUS #1) vs. [15] SABINE LISICKI (GER #15) Sharapova leads 3-0
Lisicki is capable of winning, but Sharapova is on a great roll and should win this match.
[14] ANA IVANOVIC (SRB #14) vs. [2] VICTORIA AZARENKA (BLR #2) Series tied 2-2
Ivanovic is playing well enough and is obviously talented, but Vika is the clear favorite here.
[3] AGNIESZKA RADWANSKA (POL #3) vs. [Q] CAMILA GIORGI (ITA #145) First meeting
It is a great story to see a qualifier in the second week at Wimbledon. I think the story ends here as Radwanska advances.
[24] FRANCESCA SCHIAVONE (ITA #26) vs. [4] PETRA KVITOVA (CZE #4) Kvitova leads 2-1
The defending champion should win, but this could be an upset in the making as Schiavone is not apt to implode.
[6] SERENA WILLIAMS (USA #6) vs. [WC] YAROSLAVA SHVEDOVA (KAZ #65) S.Williams leads 1-0
Serena avoided elimination in the 3rd round. Shvedova hung a golden set on the French Open runner-up. I’ll take the 4 time champion to advance.
KIM CLIJSTERS (BEL #47) vs. [8] ANGELIQUE KERBER (GER #8) First meeting
Clijsters is going to make her final Wimbledon more memorable than a round of 16 loss.
[17] MARIA KIRILENKO (RUS #19) vs. [30] PENG SHUAI (CHN #34) Series tied 1-1
Kirilenko is one of my favorite players on either tour so it is hard to pick against her, but she has not had a great 2012.
TAMIRA PASZEK (AUT #37) vs. [21] ROBERTA VINCI (ITA #23) Paszek leads 1-0
A lot of Italian players have done well at majors since the 2010 French Open. I think the trend continues.

i hope kirilenko and ivanovic break through, but definitely ana is the least likely facing azarenka.
i also think serena could – maybe – be upset… or perhaps the close call from the other day will sharpen her up. 🙂
