THE top mens seed at this weekends Warrnambool Lawn Tennis Open believes his major threats are three unseeded rivals.

Geelong coach Matt Hicks is chasing his fourth victory in the Labour Day long weekend tournament, which starts tomorrow and wraps up on Monday.

The 31-year-old meets Warrnambools Daniel Carlsson first-up but has potentially tricky showdowns against an unheralded trio in the back of his mind.

I had a look at the players. The most dangerous players, theyre all unseeded, Hicks said.

Youve got Marvin Barker from Melbourne, Andrew McLean from South Yarra and Im good mates with Matt Moloney from Warrnambool.

Theyre the main three that have a show at it.

Hicks earned the top seeding thanks to winning a tournament at Wodonga in January, which gave his Tennis Victoria points tally a healthy boost.

He defeated Moloney in the mens singles final at the Victorian inter-regional championships at Creswick two weeks earlier.
