    Nadal vs Joker or Federer before Finals?

    Just saying if it came down to semi would Nadal play Joker since Nadal is ranked 5th? or would he likely play Federer and they save the Final matchup for a Nadal and Joker Finals in the French Open?
    since most likely Murray is injured we can count him out..

    "they" don't "save" any match up. They seed the players accordingly and the draw plays out.

    Yes, which is why he's asking, I'd assume...

    It's ATP rules – not RG rules.

    I dont understand about the drawing either so I would ask.

    If Murray withdraws, will Federer, Joker, Ferrer and Nadal be positioned in different bracket?

    In the second scenario where Murray does not withdraw from the tournament, who will get Nadal on their bracket? random?

    I would like to know this for any possible future props betting.

    The withdrawal of a seed means all below seeds rise in the ranks by one spot.

    Lucky world no. 33 huh?

    so if Murray withdraw, assuming all thing goes according to the plan, it's Joker-Nadal and Federer-Ferrer semifinal, am I correct?

    If Murray withdraws,then Rafa can face either of Novak or Federer in the Semis.

    1st seed and 2nd seed are placed in opposite halves.

    So,it can be 1 vs 3 or 1 vs 4 in the semis.

    Why does tennis not have conventional draw where 16's line up 1 v. 16, 2 v. 15, 3, v. 14 ...etc.. Quarter match ups 1 v. 8, 2 v. 7, 3 v. 6, 4 v. 5????????? Tennis you always see 1 v. 5, 3 v. 8 in the quarters?
