Meanwhile, Pella will have to go five sets again today if he wants to play Novak on Friday. I think RBA will close this match out in straight sets, however.

Of course Pella wins the third set by a 6-3 score. I'm just going to shut up now, my predictions have been terrible during this fortnight.

Looks like Girly wins the bet. Nishikori looked pretty good that set.

I guess Nishikori figured he won a set, might as well take a break and let the old man tire himself out more for the best of three.

Golden Set Analytics was late delivering their data package on Nishikori today, Fed probably had to cram it all during the set break on his iPad. either that, or there's an agreement in the Uniqlo contract that Kei has to win one set.

Meanwhile in mixed doubles, Gaby Dabrowski and Mate Pavic are deep in the third set leading 11-10.

Edit: 12-12 means tie-breaker time.

Querrey saves a set point and breaks Rafa. Surprising. Almost as surprising as Rafa getting a time violation.

Girly is involved in match fixing with Nishikori. Check her accounts.

Darn it, Gaby and Mate lose the tie-breaker 7-5.

Fedal #40 is almost here!

I think Fed is the massive favorite but much like Fed reaffirmed himself as a top 10 clay court player all time at the French Open this year, so too does Nadal reaffirm himself as a top 10 grass court player all time at Wimbledon. At this point all the pressure is on Federer, Nadal can just go out and play his game. Going to be a hell of a match!!

It'll be fun, especially with nothing on the line since Novak is crushing whoever comes through that match. Just for the rivalry, nothing more.

You just hope that Nadal/Fed doesn't take too much out of Federer (I mean whoever wins) so that the final is noncompetitive. The only way I can see Novak losing is if Fed/Nadal are fresh and in top form.

Imagine if RBA somehow beats Novak, how intense the Fedal match would become.

Also everyone's favorite Aussie tennis player Thomas the Tank Engine is back playing tennis, after loosing all his prize money at Wimbledon he is now playing in........Winnipeg!

To get 100 ATP tour wins is a pretty impressive number, Fed has 100 wins at Wimbledon.
