Scotland's Jamie Baker can expect a baptism of fire when he makes his ATP Tour debut at the Stella Artois Championships in London tomorrow - but his opening match could come to seem like a stroll in the sunshine compared to what awaits him if he wins through to round two. Baker takes on Mardy Fish, the experienced American, in the first round at the Queen's Club in London, knowing the prize for the victor is a meeting with the top seed, Rafael Nadal who has been given a bye into round two to allow him more time to recover from the French Open final. Baker was given a wildcard into the tournament and is likely also to receive one for Wimbledon, which begins a fortnight today."
