Day 8 Wimbledon


The Williams sisters moved towards a rematch of last year’s final with their respective quarter-final victories on Tuesday. Top seed Dinara Safina and fourth seed Elena Dementieva now stand in their way defeating their respective quarter final opponents.Here is my preview of the men's quarterfinal matchup's.

Karlovic v Federer

With a serve like Karlovic all sets will be tight and no doubt some will be decided in tiebreaks.Federer has to seize the opportunities when they arise ,no one likes playing Karlovic because of the way he plays does not allow to much rhythm, there are very few rally's and most points are quick.Federer's class will come through at the crucial stages.Federer to win in 4 sets.

Roddick v Hewitt

This will be an interesting battle ,if Hewitt can ge any where near his form that won the Wimbledon Crown then this will be a great match.A lot will depend on how Andy serves but we all know Hewitt on his day is the best counter puncher around.Hewitt in 5.

Murray v Ferrero

Rule Brittania ,Murray will march on to the Semi's.Murray in three.

Djokovic v Haas

Another great match up! This will be tight at the business end Djokovic of late in slams has failed to deliver.Haas is the veteran and maybe youth will be in Djokovic's favour.Djokovic in 4.
