LONDON -- Canadians Eugenie Bouchard and Milos Raonic were seeded 13th and eighth respectively for Wimbledon on Wednesday. Caris LeVert Jersey . Novak Djokovic and Serena Williams were seeded No. 1 for Wimbledon, while defending mens champion Andy Murray was bumped up two spots above his world ranking to No. 3. Djokovic, the 2011 Wimbledon champion, is ranked No. 2 but was given the top seeding by the All England Club ahead of top-ranked Rafael Nadal. Nadal, a two-time Wimbledon champion who is coming off his ninth French Open title, is seeded No. 2 for the grass-court Grand Slam, which starts on Monday. Murray last year became the first British player to win the Wimbledon mens title since 1936. Seven-time champion Roger Federer is No. 4, while Australian Open winner Stan Wawrinka is down two spots from his world ranking at No. 5. Tomas Berdych, David Ferrer, Milos Raonic, John Isner and Kei Nishikori round out the top 10. Among the 32 seeded players, Jerzy Janowicz received the biggest boost, going up nine spots from his No. 24 ranking to No. 15. The big-serving Polish player reached the Wimbledon semifinals last year, losing to Murray in four sets. Wimbledon takes a players grass-court record into account in assigning the mens seedings. The womens seedings, however, stick to the WTA rankings. That means five-time champion Williams is No. 1, followed by Li Na, French Open runner-up Simona Halep, Agnieszka Radwanska and Maria Sharapova. Sharapova, who won her first Grand Slam title at Wimbledon 10 years ago, is coming off her second French Open championship. She is considered Williams top challenger at Wimbledon, despite the No. 5 seeding. They could end up on the same side of the draw. Petra Kvitova, the 2011 Wimbledon winner, is No. 6, followed by Jelena Jankovic, Victoria Azarenka, Angelique Kerber and Dominika Cibulkova. Venus Williams, a five-time Wimbledon champion who has gradually slipped in the rankings, is seeded only No. 30. Custom Brooklyn Nets Jerseys . While Minnesota takes aim at its eighth win of November, the Canadiens will try to post just their third victory in nine games this month. DAngelo Russell Jersey .  Osmond, of Marystown, N.L., fell in the middle of her routine and placed fifth in the ladies free skate at Iceberg Skating Palace (110.73 points), but that was all the Canadians needed after a strong performance by Kevin Reynolds in the mens free earlier Sunday.Ireland waited 111 years for a victory against New Zealand and now have the chance to grab a second in 15 days when they meet in Dublin on Saturday, live on Sky Sports 2 HD from 4.45pm. Irelands 40-29 victory in Chicago ended the All Blacks 18-game winning streak and are now primed for a furious backlash at the Aviva Stadium.As Steve Hansen and Joe Schmidt argue over who is favourites for Saturdays rematch, Ireland skipper Rory Best has challenged his side to scale new heights in performance to pull off another victory. Can Ireland make further history and beat the back-to-back world champions for a second time? We examine five key talking points:Ireland refuse to fall for Hansen mind games Joe Schmidt rejected Steve Hansens suggestion that the Ireland are favourites New Zealand boss Steve Hansen has branded his back-to-back world champions underdogs for the Dublin clash.Hansens claim has been met with near incredulity in all corners, especially as the All Blacks boast a 92 per cent win rate during his tenure. They have lost just four in 66 during Hansens reign, and those statistics belie his claim that Ireland enter Saturdays clash as favourites. QUIZ: Irelands win over NZ Ireland famously beat the All Blacks in Chicago, but do you remember how they did it? Just because Ireland claimed their first-ever win over New Zealand on November 5, the hosts have insisted that does not change the complexion of facing the worlds best team one iota.Ireland have rejected any suggestion of mind games from New Zealand and Hansen but he has no doubt issued that tag in order to challenge his side to hit back to expected form.New Zealands all-new second row Brodie Retallick (left) and Sam Whitelock resume their second row partnership The return of fit-again duo Brodie Retallick and Sam Whitelock is expected to transform New Zealands approach.Firstly the potent locks will boost the All Blacks scrum and lineout no end. But more than that, Retallick especially should revamp New Zealands approach with ball in hand. Ireland vs New Zealand November 19, 2016, 4:45pm Live on Get Sky Sports Get a Sky Sports pass The peerless Retallick acts as a hugely-dangerous auxiliary midfield playmaker in New Zealands unique attacking system. Few teams have managed to shut down the wily operator, so Ireland have to do just that in order to produce another victory.Dagg ushered in to counter Irelands aerial game Israel Dagg scored New Zealands fourth try in their win over Italy last Saturday Battering ram wing Waisake Naholo has been relegated to New Zealands bench for failing to cope with Irelands tactical kicking strategy in Chicago. DeMarre Carroll Jersey. .Naholo floundered as Irelands aerial bombardment paid huge dividend at Soldier Field. Picked to power through the middle of the field with ball in hand, instead Naholo wound up too often clutching at straws as Ireland gained front-foot ball through Johnny Sexton and Conor Murrays inch-perfect kicking game. Did you know? Half-backs Conor Murray and Johnny Sexton account for 54 of the last 91 points Ireland have scored against New Zealand. Hansen has picked Israel Dagg on the wing in the hope New Zealand can this time shut down one of Irelands primary sources of attacking platforms.OBrien can terrorise NZ again New Zealand were surprised Sean OBrien was not selected for the Chicago Test When Ireland ran New Zealand all the way in their 24-22 defeat in Dublin 2013, for the first hour back-rower Sean OBrien struck fear into the stunned All Blacks.New Zealands overtime converted try to steal the game has since been well documented, with the All Blacks exploiting that last-gasp victory in order to boost their unbeatable aura.Irelands win in Chicago has dented that invincibility of course though, and fit-again flanker OBrien can once again ruin New Zealands claim to immortality.The Leinster star is just about approaching full tilt and can easily repeat his barnstorming 2013 showing.Spare a thought for OMahony Peter OMahony has missed out on selection, with Sean OBrien named in the back row and Josh van der Flier on the bench Munster flanker Peter OMahony has proved one of Irelands most potent and dependable performers over the last five years.So it must have been with a heavy heart that Ireland boss Joe Schmidt once again omitted the bullish back-rower from his line-up to face New Zealand.OMahony would have been frustrated but accepting of missing the Chicago match, still fighting back to full fitness as he was after his long-term battles with knee trouble.But this week he has been in full flight, so to miss a second match against the worlds best side in as many weeks must cut deep.
