Roger Federer holds numerous records in men's singles, including 14 Grand Slam titles (3 Australian Open, 1 French Open, 5 Wimbledon, 5 US Open). He recently tied the all-time record of the American great Pete Sampras by winning the 2009 French Open. He’s the all-time favorite at Wimbledon winning in consecutive years from 2003-2007. Federers biggest rival is current number 1 Rafa Nadal. Federer and Nadal have been playing each other since 2004, and this rivalry is a significant part of both men's careers. They are the only men in the open era who have played each other in 7 Grand Slam finals, with Nadal leading 5-2. Nadal leads their overall head-to-head series 13-7 (Nadal leads 9-2 on clay, Federer leads 4-5 on grass and hard courts). Their 2008 Wimbledon final has been lauded as the greatest match of all time by many long-time tennis critics, while many critics consider their rivalry to be the greatest in tennis history.
Raphael Nadal played his first grass-court match of the season Thursday, reigning Wimbledon champion Rafael Nadal lost 6-4, 6-3 to Lleyton Hewitt in an exhibition at the Hurlingham Club. Nadal has been battling knee tendinitis, will announce Friday if he is fit to defend his title at the All England Club.
Andy Murray is England’s favorite and only hope in winning at Wimbledon. Unfortunately he’s never come close, he made the quarter finals in 2008 only to lose to Nadal. His record at the All England Club is 9-3. His best finish at a Grand Slam was at the 2008 US Open where he was runner-up to Djokovic. Murray won at Doha (d. Roddick), Rotterdam (d. Nadal) and ATP World Masters 1000 Miami (d. Djokovic) earlier in the season, while also finishing runner-up to Nadal at ATP World Tour Masters 1000 Indian Wells. He’s fresh off a win at the AEGON Championships, which is a grass court venue.
Novak Djokovic won his first Grand Slam singles title at the 2008 Australian Open. After beating World No. 1 and defending champion Roger Federer in the semi-finals, Djokovic defeated Jo-Wilfried Tsonga in the final, becoming the first player representing Serbia to win a Grand Slam singles title and the youngest player in the open era to have reached the semifinals of all four Grand Slam events.[3] He was the runner-up at the 2007 US Open and won the bronze medal in singles representing Serbia at the 2008 Olympic Games.
