His well- rounded game has taken him deep into majors, including a win over Federer en route to the 2. Querrey redlined for long enough to beat Nadal for the title in Acapulco, but could he can repeat that improbable feat, or any of today’s uncharacteristic backhands, against Federer?Ĭilic is a much scarier proposition, a high- shouldered brooder who stalks around the court in between mashing backhands down the line. Should Federer advance, he’d next face the winner of Sam Querrey (0- 3) and Marin Cilic (1- 6). Novak Djokovic might have offered that test, but his arm turned to mush too soon for us to tell. Jeremy Chardy, Ryan Harrison, and David Ferrer are not scalps to brag about. He floated undisturbed to the semifinals: Clay prince Dominic Thiem might’ve been the No. Berdych has fared well at Wimbledon, making the finals in 2. Federer has lost just twice this year, both times to laughable names, but Berdych gets Best Runner- Up: He mustered two match points against Fed in March at the Miami Open, only to blow both and watch the Swiss ace his way out of that bind, win the match, and eventually the title. First to try and spoil the party is gaunt slugger Tomas Berdych (6- 1.įederer) in the semifinal. Which is to say: Don’t muck this up, buddy. Today at Wimbledon the top two seeds succumbed to bodily decomposition-Andy Murray over an excruciating five sets, Novak Djokovic in a shock second- set retirement. Ignore everything else crumbling around you.
