Yeah, I'll be happy if he wins a set. :lol:

The thing about this matchup is that if you look at the losses fed has had at wimbledon it has been guys that can hit through him (Berdych, Tsonga), or a guy who can consistently hit high heavy topspin to his backhand (Nadal). Even the almost losses (Bennetaeu, falla, all hitting big shots)

Murray is in a bad position, because he will have to get out of his comfort zone of playing defensively and really be aggressive. Hoping fed will miss will not work on the grass court, especially if the roof is closed.

Knowing that the roof favors fed, ill bet the club will do anything to keep the roof open, for murray

Yeah....head says Fed, heart Murray. Reckon Fed will win the first set quickly, start well in the 2nd and then go off the boil (as per Slam final with Del Potro...) - Murray might win the second, Fed will wake back up, go to 'super pursuit' mode and finish the job - Fed to win in 4.

If Fed plays at 80% and Murray can sustain 100% (!!), there's a chance of an upset....just (loathe as I am to say it) don't see it happening - here's hoping I'm as wrong as wrong pie

I reckon Andy in 5 sets, I think he will really battle hard as a Wimbledon final won't come round every year for him he'll really want to win it. The crowd will probs be 60/40 behind Murray so he has a good chance I think. Federer obviously clear favourite

roof open and what appears to be good weather. don't know the forecast, but thats a positive for andy

agressive Murray, hitting the heavy balls, Fed is the one defending now

by **Moralspain** » Sun, 08 Jul 2012 14:25

i said once and i'll say it agfain, why players keep playing to Fed's FH?, don't get it, ok i admit Fed's BH is good and he only misses that shot against Rafa's top spin shot, but it's also true that he doesn't get many winners with his BH, i mean he's less dangerous, and Andy is talented enough to be focus and think where he's hitting the ball. Federer has the best FH on the circuit so stay away from it Andy for Gosd's sake

interesting stat so far. fed 1-8 on second serve points. murray is playing aggressive and actually looking pretty good doing it. (Man it hurt to say that) :lol:

by **Corbon** » Sun, 08 Jul 2012 14:45

Murray's backhand is 50/50, needs much less UE's. Fed is better now.
