Egger was probably seeded in the top 3 or top 2 of his last year of the B12's hard courts as well as his last year of the B14's hard courts. Now he's in the last year of the B16s hard courts and he's not even seeded at all. Who could have predicted that this would happen?Junior Tennis Fannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10016685.post-81560389259706163452009-08-03T11:54:21.482-04:002009-08-03T11:54:21.482-04:00@Austin:

After that it's a crapshoot.<br />Sock could do a lot of damage in the 18s, but his goal was to play in the US Open this year. Had no assurance of getting in prior to clays and had to reg for Zoo prior to that.<br />If he wins th 16s, which he should, we'll see what he is really made out of at the Open. Remember he's still 16.avid followerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14201883155489168511noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10016685.post-52728779473540976412009-08-03T11:02:01.185-04:002009-08-03T11:02:01.185-04:00@justthefacts:

Still Lipman and Jenkins should have been the the blottom half of the top 16 based on most resent results, not the top have as alot can change in tennis in six months. Agree that Sock should be playing `18s and see what he could really do. Just dont get why the the kid is so focused on collecting titles. IT must be he wants to beat or match Al Parker's record. <br /><br />Collette what time will the drawss be releasedjustthefactshttp://yahoo.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10016685.post-43453483124382951002009-08-03T10:35:38.301-04:002009-08-03T10:35:38.301-04:00dennis novikov is the most out of place seed at 18...dennis novikov is the most out of place seed at 18th. i would say 1-28 are pretty legitimate seeds and then theres a bit of a drop off where you could have some of those floaters instead but should just make it more interesting.zoothoughtsnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10016685.post-88699735243264530632009-08-03T10:18:37.659-04:002009-08-03T10:18:37.659-04:00justthefacts/analyst--

The "Hovhannisyan, Noble, Pasha, Carleton, Brasseaux, Stevens, Holiner" is a group that would beat most of the bottom 10 seeds and could give trouble to some middle seeds as well.
