Lleyton Hewitt, who lost to Kevin Anderson in the first round of Queen's Club, says he hopes for a reasonable draw at Wimbledon despite being unseeded. Currently ranked No. 117, the 34-year-old Australian won Wimbledon in 2002. Hewitt will likely retire after the 2016 Australian Open and will say good-bye to Wimbledon this year.
"Hopefully it would be nice to do well at Wimbledon," Hewitt said. "But you're in the hands of the Gods when you're not seeded."
Hewitt, who is playing on the Australian Davis Cup team, has yet to decide when he will play this summer on hard courts. Australia will play a Davis Cup quarterfinal against Kazakhstan on July 17-19 in Darwin, Australia, on grass.
"At this stage I'm planning to get through the Davis Cup and hopefully we are in a semifinal, trying to play a couple of matches before then,” Hewitt said. "It will be a good opportunity to play France or Great Britain in the semifinal of the Davis Cup, so I'll try to work my schedule around the Davis Cup—for the rest of the year that would be the priority."
