what were nadal's odds at the start of wimbledon 2006?

Answer 1

They would have between 11-4 and 7-2 at a guess with Federer being the hot favourite. The rest of the field would have 8-1 Roddick, 16-1 and over the rest.

Answer 2

nadal odds were probaly down because he came into wimbledeon after having to withdraw from the tournament he last play on grass(stella artois)and plus he had to play one of the graeteset wimbldeon legends not only a wimbledeon legends but a legend all around andre agassi of usa.nadal defeated agassi after having a scary match before the agassi match againest robert kendrick also american after nadal losrt the first 2 sets to kendrick.plus there was a possiblity that nadal could of face 2 time wimbledeon finalist(i think 2)andy roddick another american in the semi-finals but roddick was defeated by andy murray of british in the third round.another person that could have scared nadal is lyleton hewitt of australia who is 2002 wimbledeon champion and beat in nadal his year in the grass tournament stella artois after winning the 2 set as nadal won the fist but in the 3 set nadal gave up and hewitt went on to win that title.anywys hewitt was just one match away before challenging nadal in the semi-final and he had to chanllege marcos baghdatis of cryprus in the quarter finals but hewiit lost.nadal made it to the final and in the 1 set his odds of wining weak s federer won the 1 set 6-0.fedder won the set 3 sets to 1.if u lokk at nadal draw and look at his odds of winnig were preatty weak after losing the first 2 sets in his second round match plus having to defeat agassi one of the greateset legends of all times espicially on grass and plus he could have battle either roddick or hewitt in the semis and he lost the first set 6-0 in the finals u his odds of even maiking it to the finals were down but what i like about nadal he push up his limits and made it to the finals

Answer 3

He was ranked #2 in the tournament......but he was not the favorite to win the whole thing.
