Federer
Roger Federer just demolished Garcia-Lopez. Danced around him, three straight sets, and made him look like he belonged on a highschool court, JV. Well, maybe he fought back a little...
I don't see how Federer loses this major. He's determined to have 15. Without Nadal in his way, I think it'll be a smooth ride.
You gotta give props to the lone American male left standing. Andy Roddick has gotten a lot of flack for not being Sampras or Agassi, but he's had a successful 2009 campaign. I find myself rooting for him and would love to see him beat Federer, but that's a longshot...
Who do you think will win the men's and the women's tournament?
I would be surprised if Venus Williams doesn't capture her 6th Wimbledon Trophy, but I'd love to see the 17-year-old American Melanie Oudin make it further. She's already in the final 16 and has won a few upsets.
For the men it's hard to say. I want to, instinctively say Federer, but I think we can't forget about Murray. He is at the top of his game and has beaten him before. But I guess I'd still pick Federer, what can I say? No Nadal=A 15th Major
