Serena and Andy have both withdrawn from this year's AO. Serena needs more time to prepare and Andy has a hip issue. Not only those 2 but Novak is in doubt with a lingering elbow issue that still pains him. Lastly, Nishikori, Stan the Man and Rafa (bad knees) are in doubt, as well. Too bad for the AO is my favorite Slam, best facilities and the fan support for all their events (warmups too) are well attended. Sad that they won't be seeing the Tours best this year.
W/o Serena and Vika, likely due to the on-going custody dispute, the ladies this year are lacking.

Serena and Andy have withdrawn from the AO...That would leave Kerber and Sharapova as only former winners in the women's draw... I expect a new winner...
