Federer cruising right now, but tomorrow will be his biggest test as the highest ranked Belgian of all time David Goffin waits for him in the finals.

Meanwhile, fans of Felix are forced to wait a little longer as Simon forces a third and deciding set in the first Queen's semi-final.

It will be a fascinating contrast of matches today at Queen's Club, Simon and Medvedev are essentially playing clay court tennis on a grass surface (long rallies, very few visits to net for either player). Felix and Feliciano will be your typical quick strike power tennis that is synonymous of grass court play.

Huge match for Felix as while Simon is playing well, I fancy Felix's chances to beat Simon much betrer than Medvedev (who was definitely struggling with a back issue at the end of that match). Lopez is a cagey veteran and a former champion of this tournament, it won't be easy today.

Felix looking like a servebot right now, 100% first serve and 8 aces in 13 points so far.

Big hold of serve by Felix from 15-40 down, looking like a first set tie-breaker will be needed.

I already said this, but even with the double fault issues his serving has improved immensely since losing to Isner. That was simply a dominant set on serve.

Saves four match points from 0-40 down. Hopefully can break now.

Not to be, but I think Felix fell victim to having to play a bunch of matches in a very short period of time (lest we forget, Lopez had a walkover over Delpo). Full credit to Feliciano though, he served tremendously well today.

Roger does the impossible and pulls off the upset! Now he can finally retire knowing he’s got the biggest accomplishment in the game of tennis in his pocket.

A 37 year old wins in Halle and a 37 year old wins in London.

It's that time - Wimbledon qualifying starts tomorrow with a trio of Canadians in action.

How about Andy Murray playing professional doubles 5 months after Birmingham hip replacement surgery. Pretty amazing.
