Roger Federer - as he did in 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2009 and 2012 - is making his own sweet way through the Wimbledon draw. As he goes for that record-busting eighth title, which would render William Renshaw and Pete Sampras as mere dots in the rear-view mirror, he’s yet to be broken. In fact, he’s given up just two break points in 58 games. Stylish and serene. Effortless. If you set his life to a soundtrack, the bass part would be played by Ray Brown.
By rights, Gilles Simon shouldn’t really cause the 17-time major winner too many problems.
