To get back on topic what does everybody think about Federer vs Djokovic?
I personally think Federer (even though I am going against the odds), because their head to head history is 14-12 in federer's favor and they haven't even met on grass which is federer's best surface. He is in good form although so is nole. Should be a good match, tipping fed in 4.

Yeah it'll be a great match alright :D
Although I'm tipping Djokovic in 5 sets due to them playing in the US Open 2010-2011.. Hopefully Federer wins though

Tipping Djokovic and also Djokovic in 3

What about Tsonga v Murray?

Tipping Tsonga there.

Odds are against tsonga though, $2.80 for Tsonga to $1.40 for Murray, very good odds for Tsonga, whose best surface is grass

Really hoping Tsonga takes Murray.

I ballboyed Murray at the Open and he was an arse to me.

Absolutely torn on Federer vs Djokovic though.
I have loved Federer my whole life, absolutely idolise him. When I met him, it was the greatest day of my life...

BUT

I drew Djokovic in the Wimbledon Sweep my Tennis Club does, so if Djokovic beats Fed I stand to win $80. If he then
wins the final, I get an extra $70.

Either way I'm happy I guess :/

on fed vs djokovic
wants federer to win, but realistically, probably djokovic in 4. Djokovic seems to be in great form while federer not really peaking, having said that i havnt watched many of his games so far

really rushed from time lately and didnt get to watch many matches, but between murray and tsonga, murray in 5 im guessing.

im so jelly.

wow didnt realise sport is so involved with money, are there any actual cases of people living off this, like the long term share price increase LOL, or is it just another form of gambling which often ends with ppl losing too much? and Paul, thats 2.5% profit, think about all the research you do is it really worth it ;p?

edit:
just realised ferrer.murrays match wouldve been pretty interesting, two counterpunching playing styles

It's a British thing, apparently Tim Henman was an arse as well

Great win by Federer, looks almost back to his best.

Didn't make it up all night to watch Murray vs Tsonga, but heard Murray tore him apart for 2 sets.

Super excited for final!

My tip: Federer in 4 again, with Murray winning the second.

7th Wimbledon? Roger that!
