Deja Vu for Federer and Roddick


Roger Federer has reached yet another Wimbledon final, this is going to be his seventh in a row, as he outclassed Germany's Tommy Haas in straight sets on Centre Court. The Swiss second seed is set to appear in his 20th Grand Slam final and is looking to break Pete Sampras' 14 Grand Slam record. The score was 76(3) 65 63, and Federer will now face Andy Roddick (no, not Andy Murray) in the final after he toppled the British hopeful in four sets. Roddick got the first set with confidence but was pushed the rest of the way for his third final at the Championships and his 5th overall. Roddick has won his one and only Slam so far at the US Open in 2003. The pair have also met each other at the finals of Wimbledon twice before with Federer winning in '04 and '05.

Good luck to both players!
