Roger Federer won his sixth Dubai title over the weekend rallying to beat Tomas Berdych 36, 64, 63. The title, his first since Halle last June, breathed new life into Federer and his fans for further success after a disappointing 2013.
Though Federer hasn’t won a Grand Slam since 2012 Wimbledon, a quirky statistic suggests that an eighth title at the All England Club might just be around the corner. That’s because the last five times Federer has won Dubai he’s won Wimbledon later that same year (2003-2005, 2007, 2012).
Will that streak continue in 2014?
