Nadal - out of Wimbledon.

Good riddance.😛


And Sharapova gone too - good riddance.

So will all the folks at Mount Murray finally get to cheer for a champion? -- Or will it all devolve into a dispute over whether the place should still be called Henman Hill?

No, and yes. I vote Henman hill.

Yeah, "good riddance" ... we would sure hate to see another final like last year's epic. 🙄😞

But can you imagine a 5-set Federer-Murray final? -- with all the fans on the hill going totally nuts??

it was pretty amazing as England and Switzerland watched their heroes go 5 sets in a match that lasted until almost 11pm - but Murray finally prevailed for major breakthrough!!!...oh wait...it was that other guy from Switzerland?..oh never mind.

The folks at Murray-Henman Precipice are probably wondering if Britain will ever have more than one guy to route for.

It certainly looks like a Murray-Federer final is coming. I do want to see Federer get past 14, however for this Wimbeldon i think i would rather see Murray, Roddick or even Hewitt win it.

Devout Agnostic.

Should be interesting to see if Fed can survive the barrage of aces from Karlovic. Given recent form, I think he will take Dr. Ivo in 4.

Gotta think Djoker will take out Haas, Roddick over Hewitt, Murray over Ferrero.

So that leads to a likely Murray-Fed final. I'm not sure it will be very epic, though [would love to be proven wrong here]. Fed is cruising through while Murray plays longer matches. Fed in 4.

Well I just find Nadal boring to be honest.


My opinion only, I know. 😏

And I can only imagine how boring it may get without him - back to Federer just owning everyone at every major.

Wimbledon hasn't been boring so far without him.


Federer's next game should be interesting too. Not a foregone conclusion.

Already licking his chops at the thought of beating down a couple more old[er] farts for another title...

Haas took care of Djokovic

now he and Andy Roddick can break up everyone's Murray-Federer plans. 😀
