The draw for Newport:

A. Dupuis (FRA)
(8) J. Blake (USA)

W. Moodie (SAF)
Y-T. Wang (TWN)

D. Bracciali (ITA)
(4, wc) C. Saulnier (FRA)

(wc) A. Murray (GBR)
G. Carraz (FRA)

(1) T. Dent (USA)
A. Delic (USA)

A. Waske (GER)
G. Elseneer (BEL)

F. Dancevic (CAN)
R. Vik (CZH)

J. Morrison (USA)
K. Kucera (SVK)

(7) P. Goldstein (USA)
D.Norman (BEL)

M. Mertinak (SVK)
B. Reynolds (USA)

So Murray's playing Carraz, who's ranked 127 in the entry ranking and 118 in the race but he's 30 now and his only career final was in Newport last year in the doubles, he's never won a tournament. He lost to Stepanek at Queen's Club so Murray's probably favourite, despite being ranked 100 places below him.

Clearly that's not the whole draw tbh

Full draw for Newport tournament

So Murray could meet Blake in the second round, Greg in the Quarters and Taylor Dent in the Semis.

Post-Wimbledon rankings news:

[b]Murray makes huge rankings leap

Andy Murray's Wimbledon exploits have lifted him 99 places to 213th in the latest ATP rankings, making him the sixth highest-placed Briton.

Wimbledon men's champion Roger Federer retains number one position, while Tim Henman drops down two places to 11.

Semi-finalist Thomas Johansson replaces Henman in the top 10, moving to ninth.

In the women's rankings, Wimbledon champion Venus Williams climbs eight places to eighth, while runner-up Lindsay Davenport remains first.

Scotland's Murray, 18, reached the third round at Wimbledon - his first senior Grand Slam event - and led former finalist David Nalbandian by two sets to love before eventually being beaten.

He is playing this week as a wild card entrant in the ATP Hall of Fame Championships in Newport, Rhode Island.

American Taylor Dent - beaten by Murray in the Stella Artois Championship at Queen's - is top seed.
