Rusedski grapples with Wimbledon dream

Greg Rusedski begins the defence of his Nottingham Open title this afternoon knowing victory is essential to revive his fast-fading Wimbledon dream.

Rusedski takes on Slovakia’s Karol Kucera in the first round in a repeat of the 1997 final which Rusedski won on his way to becoming the first British player to finish inside the world’s top 10.
