Federer I always love but his fan beingdom is impossible! Why he not fight back? Why so many times give easy ball back to other side so less slow. head is brainwash to figure out. if I Merka I shake him plenty and tell to bring emotional noise to the court side. the crowd always on rogets side, why he always never fight!!! bleeeeuuuughhhh!!!!

Fed complained about the slow conditions on the TC yesterday.... He was hitting 125 mph down the tee and DelPo was returning them no problem.

Who will win the final?

Only positive outcome for Fed is that if Nole wins, he gets back to no.2... in that case, he could still have a chance for the Olympics and USO. Wimbledon no.1 and no.2 seeds will be Nole and Rafa for previous results.

The seedings will follow the rankings imo

I think Murray has too little ranking points so that past performance makes an impact

no way.... Andy is an island. Fed has a 2300 point adantage and both Murray and Fed lost ground at RG

Wimbledon takes into consideration the #1 ranking, the last Slam performance, and previous performances at Wimbledon to do the seedings.

true. i think djokovic holding all four majors wouldn't sit as well with federer though...he'd rather watch nadal win instead of having better chances of becoming number 2 imo.

They have a formula which only includes the past 1 or 2 years. Nadal definitely has the better record in that aspect.

Tough to see Roger winning any more slams if he has to go through both Nole and Rafa

And will only get harder as he gets deeper into his 30s

Disappointed and sad, I will love Roger forever, but it wasn't enough today, can't say enough about the resilience and hunger from No1e, he is a joy to watch, they both are. Can't wait for a classic match on Sunday.

Roger said at the beginning of the tournament that Nadal was the favorite, then Djoker and that he was third favorite. At least he admitted that himself.

I expected Roger to play more aggressive today but I guess he wasn't sure how to break through Djokovic's defense. He did not seem to have any sort of game plan.

Fed fans got their wish! Nole wins! Nole wins! lol

I think from your logic, that would be Rafa haters, not Fed fans. Fans of a player wants their player to win always

Since the end of the AO, I've hoped that a Novak/Rafa final would happen.
