London, England – Serbian Sensation third seed Jelena Jankovic heads up this tough quarter which includes eighth seed Anna Chakvetadze, ninth seed Martina Hingis, sixteenth seed Shahar Peer, eighteenth seed Marion Bartoli and unseeded Lucie Safarova.

One of the toughest quarters in the women’s draw, here are the picks for the women’s Wimbledon third round matchups that kick off on June 29th, 2007.

This is the second time Hingis and Granville play since their first meeting at the US Open in 2001. At the time, Hingis was at the top of the ranks, playing the best tennis of her career. Although some time has passed since their first meeting, which went the way of Hingis, she is still a good bet against No. 77 Granville.
