For the last few weeks, all of the sports attention has been on the 2010 FIFA World Cup. Now that England are almost out, we can look forward to seeing a Brit win Wimbledon.

We have gone from the French clay at Roland Garros, to the freshly cut grass court at SW19. Monday, June 21st will see the start of the 124th Wimbledon Championships.

Britain's best hope, Andy Murray, will play Czech Jan Hajek in the first round of this year's tournament.

These two have never met, but fourth seed Murray will be the hot favourite to win against Hajek, ranked number 80.

Hajek has only been to Wimbledon once before in 2007, where he went out in the first round.

The Scot doesn't have an easy route to the last four as he could be facing American Sam Querrey in the fourth round who is quite a player on grass and won at Queen's last week.

He could even face 14th seed Juan Carlos Ferrero, if he manages to beat Querrey before the fourth round.

In the quarterfinals, Murray could play against eighth seed Fernando Verdasco. Though the Spaniard must get past Jo-Wilfried Tsonga in the previous round.

Murray has been playing well recently and is in good form as he goes into the tournament.

His mum is his biggest fan at the moment as she says: "He WILL win."

Are we getting ahead of ourselves again?

We thought England would do well at the World Cup, but have failed to please us yet. Will Murray be as much of a disappointment as the Three Lions?
