It's a challenge that I look forward to,' she added. Of course I know how Justine plays but she's a really good player. 'Doesn't matter if I'm playing Venus or Justine or Lindsay. 'Now I really don't care who's standing in front of me,' Clijsters said. Clijsters beat China's Li Na 6-4, 7-5 in the quarter-finals on Tuesday, while Henin-Hardenne downed French qualifier Severine Bremond 6-4, 6-4. Neither player has lost a set in five matches at this tournament. I'm just going to try to keep the same preparation, nothing different from what I did in the last few weeks. 'It will be the third time in a month, so I think that we know each other well enough,' Henin-Hardenne said. Henin-Hardenne leads 4-2 at other Grand Slams. This will be their first meeting at Wimbledon. Last year, Federer was knocked out in the second round by Ukraine’s world number 116, Sergei Stakhovsky, ending his run of 36 straight Grand Slam quarter-finals.Maria Sharapova of Russia celebrates her 6-1, 6-4 win over Elena Dementieva of Russia after their Women's Singles quarter-final match on Tuesday. “On grass, I feel like if I play my game it’s more on my racquet,” said Federer, who starts against Italy’s Paulo Lorenzi who has never won a match at a major. The 32-year-old, who won the last of his 17 majors at Wimbledon in 2012, hopes his success in Germany is a sign of things to come in south-west London. Murray has been seeded third, above seven-time champion Federer, who may have more reasons for being confident about an eighth title, having captured the Halle grasscourt trophy for the seventh time. The world number five, who recently hired Amelie Mauresmo as coach, hasn’t reached another final since his moment of history 12 months ago and lost in the third round at Queen’s Club last week to the 35-year-old Czech, Radek Stepanek.”The difference between this year and last is that I’ve played a lot of matches on clay in the last couple of weeks this time,” said Murray. Murray, having become the first British man since Fred Perry in 1936 to win Wimbledon when he trounced Djokovic in straight sets last year, goes into the tournament with his form also giving cause for concern. Nadal, who faces Slovakia’s Martin Klizan in the first round, suffered an opening exit on grass at Halle last week, a straight-sets defeat by German world number 85 Dustin Brown. The match is decided in a few balls, so you need to convert the small opportunities that you have.” The feeling on court is a little bit strange for everybody. “Here, especially the beginning of the tournament, the courts are a little bit faster. So more or less I can imagine how I am going to play. “When I arrive at Roland Garros I have already played for one month on clay. “I’ve said before this is really the most dangerous tournament of the year,” said Nadal, who has been seeded second despite his world number one status. The 28-year-old Nadal hinted at another Wimbledon letdown in the immediate aftermath of his triumph over Djokovic in the French Open final two weeks ago, when he claimed his 14th major, and this weekend hinted at more trouble to come. Rosol could be a second round opponent this year. Twelve months earlier, the world’s 100th best player, big-hitting Lukas Rosol, put him out in the second round, a defeat which precipitated a seven-month absence from the sport for the man from Mallorca.
