Robson playing at home, will probably have a tonne of confidence and play freely (she has nothing to lose)

I'm not sure I agree. The British Media has put so much pressure on this young girl. They desperately wants to have a British Wimbledon Champion and Robson - by winning the junior tournament last year - is their biggest hope. She must feel the pressure.

Her first round match might be televised given who she's playing. Same situation to Dellacqua in Australia.

This match will certainly be on one of the show courts, probably on Court 1 or the new No.2 Court, so it should be widely televised.

Oh, i didn't realise that. I guess it could work either way. Bernard Tomic played well in Australia and he's in a very similar situation.

3rd round should Daniela get there will most likely be against Tanasugarn.

Daniela Hantuchova is right about everything.

ORDER OF PLAY - MONDAY 22 JUNE, 12:00
COURT No.2

Daniela HANTUCHOVA v Laura ROBSON [WC]
Jo-Wilfried TSONGA [9] v Andrey GOLUBEV
Elena DEMENTIEVA [4] v Alla KUDRYAVTSEVA
Michael LLODRA v Joshua GOODALL [WC]

Court No.2 is a new court for this year, sunk 3.5 metres below ground surface. An intimate arena that will surely boast a great atmosphere, particularly when Daniela and Laura are on court.

For me on a personal level this is terrible draw, Im a big fan of Robson and would have loved to of seen her win a match or two at Wimbledon, but alas the Daniela fan in me see's this only going one way, and with Daniela being the one I'll be supporting, though I wouldnt begrudge Laura a set, as long as Daniela wins two of them first!

As a Daniela fan, on the whole its a good draw, as many have pointed out Zheng and potentially Schnyder are pretty ideal seeds for Daniela to have in her path, but one match at the time needs to be the philosophy here if Daniela is to achieve a 3rd round or 4th round showing.

Laura will have about 99% of the support, especially after winning the junior title last year, which nearly packed out court 1, so Daniela will be the devil on this occasion, which is rare from the British crowd, a comfortable straight sets win would be ideal, a win though in any style will suffice, but worry me a little bit if Robson does manage to push Daniela all the way

1043: BBC Sport's David Ornstein is prowling round the practice court like a journalistic tiger and has discovered Laura Robson's first-round opponent getting in the mood with some ultra-realistic training. "Daniela Hantuchova's coach is purposefully grunting every time he hits the ball during their practise session. Very strange." BBC Sport's David Ornstein

I need to "fund my account" to see what's happening on bet365. Daniela's down an early break. Are there any other streams?

EDIT: Phew! She broke back. Trust Daniela to start out more nervous than someone playing their first grand slam :D
