Roger Federer is the No1 seed for the men’s Wimbledon singles in 2010 despite being knocked off the No1 ranking slot by Rafa Nadal.

The seedings are calculated using a formula that takes into account a player’s performance on grass, meaning Federer, tennis king of grass for years and reigning champion in SW19, remains the man to beat in the eyes of the All England Club.

Novak Djokovic is the No3 seed and Britain’s Andy Murray No4, ahead of the USA’s Andy Roddick and Sweden’s Robin Soderling.

A PDF of the full seedings can be downloaded from the Wimbledon website.
