Yen-Hsun Lu (TPE) v 2-Roger Federer (SUI)

If Rafa withdraws, does Clément play a lucky loser or the fifth seed?

EDIT: Yep, JMDP plays Clément, so you may want to adjust predictions.

Yeh the matches are totally different now. Also easier to tip on each day seperately so may want to wait until Sunday aussie time to post day 1 matches.
