Murray never loses early at slams especially at Wimbledon so i dunno how you can predict that he will go out early when he just reached the SF on his worst surface in the French but his form hasn't been great this year and it's hard to pick him to win, Nadal would be the favourite if he survives the first week but he's also most likely to go out early.
One of these 4 will end up winning i'm pretty sure of that but it's hard to confidently pick which one.
Murray and Djokovic are the safest bets to win their quarter out of the 4 in my opinion and least likely to crash out to a lower ranked player but can Murray find his game like last year and can Novak finally win when it matters in a final like he used to 2-3 years ago that's the big question.
I couldn't disagree more about Raonic, his movement is horrible on the grass and he won't get to the 2nd week, all he has is a serve and the ball bounces lower on the grass which suits him less than clay and hard.
Remember also that Wimbledon doesn't seed on the ATP rankings but uses grass results from the past 2 years added to ATP rankings which means Wawrinka gets whored out of number 3 and drops to 5 while Murray moves to 3rd seed at Wimbledon.
In short, it's hard to see anyone outside of the big 4 winning but it's also hard to confidently pick any of them to win, they all have big downsides unlike in most slams.
Dimitrov is now too short and represents no value for a guy who's only been to 1 QF at a slam.
Janowicz is playing terrible, Wawrinka never really done anything on the grass, Berdych will have his usual QF run then lose to a top guy.
