Third set | Federer wins, 6-3

Federer dominates the third set.

After dropping the second set, Federer claimed an emphatic third set to put himself one set from the Wimbledon final.

Federer calmly closed out the set, 6-3, after squandering advantages in his previous two return games. In three games, he held serve without Nadal winning any points. Nadal won only five points during Federer’s serve in the set.

The good news continues for Federer: Nadal has never come back to win against him after trailing by two sets to one.
