    I couldn't follow it a bit in all this EU08 jam. Someone should poke me if Federer meets Nadal or Djokovic at some point.

    How many times has he won it thus far, four time correct? If he wins this next one, he'll be tied with the leading record, as I recall. Can't quite recall who it's set by. Maybe Sampras?

    To be honest, I think that Federer is already beginning to lose his touch. Looks like hes having trouble with Djoko ;).

    Well I am Tennis fan here. Yes I would see Roger's 6th Wimbledon.

    Well I don't think so. This is his favorite one and I am sure he will show to World that he is still best tennis player on the Earth. He will surly win his 6th Wimbledon and 13th Grand Slam title.:)

    Federer doesn't seem to have a lot of trouble with Djoko. In fact, he rates Andy Murray better than Djoko. But the recent defeat at the French soil at the hands of Nadal could have done some damage to his morale. But still, Federer is the odds on favorite to win this trophy. If he misses out, I think Djoko or Nadal will make it.

    Yeah but Roger knows that he is doing good at French open just missing a one win. Last year he was very close to it but missed. There is no doubt on Roger in Wimbledon and I am sure he will win it.

    Well that applies for soccer and basketball as well.

    Yeah, I also think he's going to get the 13 Grand Slams. He's too close anyways.

    Yeah big players are going day by day. Looks like we would see Roger Federe Vs Rafel Nadal final once again. Now it's time for Roger to show his dominants at Wimbledon to claim 6th GS title of events and 13th overall.

    Of late Rafael's power on grass is becoming a threat to Roger .....but hopefully, I guess, Roger will clinch the title for 6th time!

    Good luck Fedex!

    It would be a tough match. Fed wont win it in 3 sets, thats for sure. Who will be playing Marat safin ? I think he's the major threat for now.

    hmm, more upsets. #1 seed Ana Ivanovic defeated by Zheng [who the ? ] :O
    David Ferrer Crashes out.

    I am a huge tennis fan and pretty big fan of Roger. I am hoping he will take the title, but he will have a hard match coming up for sure. He will pull it off though

    Well I don't think so he will have some problems since he looks good at the moment and many good players now out of the Wimbledon.

    Many good players? LOL. Of all the players who crashed out, only Djokovic is capable of posting some sort of threat to Federer. Guys like Roddick can't even put up a fight against him.
