Roger Federer won a 19th Grand Slam title and set a record for his 8th Wimbledon, but 3-year-olds Lenny and Leo who have never seen daddy win on the grass at the AELTC weren’t terribly excited. But they sure were dressed nice!

They probably think it’s a nice view & a big playground,” Federer said. It’s a wonderful moment for us as a family.”

An 8th career meeting for the pair, their 4th at a Grand Slam, …

Garbine Muguruza captured her first Wimbledon title Saturday beating Venus Williams 7-5, 6-0 in a 77-minute ladies’ final.

Serving 4-5, 15-40 in the first set, the 23-year-old Muguruza saved those two set points then reeled off the last nine games over an error-strewn Williams to collect her second career Grand Slam and avenge a loss to the younger Williams in the 2015 final.

“I always come very motivated to the Grand Slams,” …

So it shouldn’t be a big surprise to have Roger Federer and Marin Cilic in the Wimbledon final. Why? Well, that’s what I picked at the start of the event. And I don’t see myself going back on that now.

Yesterday, Federer played just well enough to thwart a game Tomas Berdych. I thought Federer wasn’t at his best at times (some sloppy play) while Berdych played pretty well. But …

Roger Federer reached his 11th Wimbledon final with a tough 7-6(4), 7-6(4), 6-4 victory over Tomas Berydch in the semifinals on Friday.

“I was able to come up with the goods when it mattered,” Federer said. “I played good in the tiebreakers, I never played with any sense of panic, which is so important when it gets to crunch time.”

Federer had beaten Berdych seven straight times and 18-6 overall, but the …

And then there was one. One of the Big 4 remaining, that is. After five rounds of battle on God’s green earth, only Roger Federer was left standing among the Big 4 at Wimbledon.

Rafael Nadal couldn’t complete his comeback against Gilles Muller. Novak Djokovic succumbed to an elbow injury and a hobbled Andy Murray was outgunned by American ace Sam Querrey.

Meanwhile, it’s just Roger Federer, a 35-year-old Roger Federer strolling …

Novak Djokovic’s elbow flared up at the worst time, forcing him to retire from a quarterfinal match against Tomas Berdych Wednesday at Wimbledon.

Afterward, Djokovic admitted that he’s been struggling with the issue for over a year now. And it forced him out of Miami earlier this season.

“It’s the elbow that already keeps bothering for over a year and a half actually,” Djokovic said. “It’s unfortunate that I had to finish …

Of the Big 4, only Roger Federer was able to reach the Wimbledon semifinals. And to the 7-time champion, that’s a surprise even to him that Rafael Nadal, Novak Djokovic and Andy Murray have fallen.

“I’m surprised to see them going out,” said Federer. “But the other guys are playing well. Grass court, margins are small. Still remains a great, great tournament.

“Of course, I wish them the best, that they come …

With his main rivals out, Roger Federer is the clear-cut favorite to win another Wimbledon. The 7-time tournament champion is joined in the semifinals by newcomers Sam Querrey and Marin Cilic, and former finalist Tomas Berdych who is his next opponent. But even after thumping Milos Raonic, Federer is wary of the pitfalls ahead in this 2-round tournament.

“Being the favorite or not the favorite doesn’t matter,” Federer said. “These other …

Five-time Wimbledon champion Venus Williams defeated Britain’s Johanna Konta 6-4, 6-2 on Thursday to gain her ninth final at the All England Club.

“I’ve played a lot of finals here, it’s been a blessing,” Williams said. “I can’t ask for more, but I want a little more.”

The 37 year old is attempting to become the oldest Grand Slam champion in the Open Era, since 1968.

Konta had two break point opportunities at …

An upset of world No. 1 Andy Murray and the retirement of former No. 1 and champion Novak Djokovic left Wimbledon in chaos on Wednesday, and Roger Federer sitting in the catbird seat.

Murray, bothered by a hip injury, was dismissed in five sets by Wimbledon giant-killer Sam Querrey 3-6, 6-4, 6-7(4), 6-1, 6-1.

“I didn’t start my best but kept with it and kept swinging and I hit my groove in …

We are down to just eight players at the Wimbledon Championships. And there’s no real, true surprise like we have with Magdalena Rybarikova’s Cinderella run in the women’s draw.

Looking back to the fourth round, the big story was Gilles Muller’s stunner over Rafael Nadal. Muller has been dynamite on the grass this season while Rafa has struggled in recent years, so in my mind it wasn’t a huge upset when …

Czech Karolina Pliskova won at Wimbledon on Tuesday without even taking the court.

Like many players who’ve back-doored themselves into the No. 1 ranking while Serena Williams was absent, Pliskova will ascend to the No. 1 ranking at the completion of Wimbledon due to another early loss by current world No. 1 Angie Kerber at Wimbledon, and today’s loss by Simona Halep at the All England Club.

Halep, who could have taken …

Understandably, Novak Djokovic was unhappy with Wimbledon decision to move his fourth round match against Adrian Mannarino to Tuesday. Djokovic-Mannarino was to follow the Rafael Nadal-Gilles Muller epic, but when that match ran long, Wimbledon had the option as early as 7pm to move Djokovic to an empty Centre Court.

But the tournament opted to not to move due to safety concerns with fans rushing to get into Centre. So …

Following a tough loss to Gilles Muller in the fourth round yesterday, 2-time champion Rafael Nadal sounded off on Wimbledon for putting the same players on Centre Court. Nadal, who lost to Muller on Court 1, played two of his four matches on Centre while rivals Roger Federer and Andy Murray were on Centre for all four of their matches. And that didn’t sit well with Rafa.

“I like playing more …
