Favorite Roger Federer fired 23 aces for victory today as he took on his French Open final opponent, Robin Soderling. Though Federer took the win in 3 sets, Soderling did put more pressure on him today and took the last 2 sets to tiebreaks. This is Federer's 11th straight win over Soderling.
Andy Murray was pushed to the limit by Stanislas Wawrinka today as he endured a 4 hour roller coaster ride. The Briton lost the first set, but then regained confidence to win the next 2 sets. Wawrinka then won the fourth and Murray finished him off in the fifth. The final score was 26 63 63 57 63. This match has set the record at Wimbledon for being the latest Centre Court match finish in history of the tournament, clocking at at 10:39 pm.
Novak Djokovic and Andy Roddick also made it through.
