Monfils and Stepanek miss out 

gaels monfilsGael Monfils was the provisional top seed for June's AEGON International at Devonshire Park, but was always unlikely to play because of his long-term left kneecap injury. And a wrist injury at Queen's Club put paid to his participation this year.

And, as eastbournetennis.net exclusively revealed, Czech Republic's Radek Stepanek has been on the injured list ever since he damaged his ankle at a Challenger event after the 2009 French Open and may not be fit in time for a shot at Wimbledon.

Although the tournament organisers insisted that these two players were entering, by getting quotes from Monfils and Stepanek's doctor confirmed that neither were fully fit and would be resting before Wimbledon.

Seeded players

There are eight seeds overall, which is likely to be determined by the current world rankings at the time of the draw.

Although British ace Andy Murray expressed an interest in playing as a wildcard at Eastbourne should he fail to make an impact at Queen's Club the week before, the Scot had very little competition and breezed through the grass court event in London.
