The coolest thing about the 2014 Wimbledon championships is that it appears to be wide open in both the men's and women's draw.

Sure, Serena Williams is the favorite to win on her favorite surface, but coming off a stunning second-round loss at the French Open, there's reason to wonder whether she'll be her usual dominant self.

On the men's side, the favorite could be any of a group of four to five players. Novak Djokovic received the top seed, but can anyone truly say he has the decided advantage over world No. 1 Rafael Nadal, defending champion Andy Murray or Roger Federer?

No.

This could be one of the most fun and unpredictable years at the All England Club in years. The field of 128 on both sides of the draw will begin play on Monday, June 23.

Here's a closer look at the top four seeds in the men and women's draw. For a look at the entire bracket, click here to follow the action at the event's official website.

 

Men

1. Novak Djokovic



The 27-year-old won his only Wimbledon crown during his magical 2011 season. Coming off a defeat to Nadal in the final of the French Open, Djokovic will likely be eager to try his hand at winning a Grand Slam not played on the red clay.

He has advanced to the semifinals every year since 2010. 

Anything short of a deep run as the No. 1 seed would be a huge disappointment.

 

2. Rafael Nadal



Nadal won Wimbledon in 2008 and 2010, which is pretty impressive considering grass isn't his best surface. 

That said, he's had epic failures in his last two attempts at the All England Club. A second-round exit in 2012 was followed by a first-round defeat in 2013. 

The King of Clay is looking to improve his performance on the premier grass tournament in the sport.
