Wimbledon draw revealed

The announcement of the draw for the upcoming Wimbledon tennis championship could have more people thinking of arranging a trip to the capital in order to take in the action.

Anyone arranging domestic holiday insurance and heading to the SW19 postcode area with Wimbledon tickets can expect to see British hope Andy Murray take on Robert Kendrick of the US in the first round.

In the women's draw, an unlikely British hope comes in the form of Laura Robson, who won the junior title last year.

Her victory earned her a wild card entry into the main women's championship this time around, where she faces Slovakia's Daniela Hantuchova.

Murray ranks as the second-highest seeded player in the draw, although he was originally ranked third.

He moved up a place behind Roger Federer after Spain's top-seeded Rafael Nadal was forced to withdraw from this year's event.

Those arranging holiday insurance to protect their belongings while watching the women's contest can see Dinara Safina take the top seed place ahead of Williams sisters Serena and Venus.ADNFCR-2301-ID-19229168-ADNFCR
