Default Federer vs Murray - 2013 AO semi-finals

There's the match we've been waiting for. Murray somehow managed to survive his brutal draw and there he is in the SF. Federer had a stroll. Thoughts?

Murray in 4, for my sadness.

I believe in my oldie, but his back has to normalize.

At the start of the tourney I predicted Fed would lost SF to Murray in 4 while having a 5 setter on the way so sticking to that, I'd love to see Fed prove me wrong but Muzza in 4.

Murray in 4 looks right.

But I'll be delusional and say Federer in 5.

Given the way Fed played in the QF, I think Andy has this.

Too close to call! Roger was not great today but he's looked awesome till today! Murray cruising through but has played nobody of note and has had wobbles even in those matches!

Going with Roger in 4 but I think it's going to be close and could go either way

Had finally a good feeling about a Federer grandslam match against Tsonga. That almost went wrong, so going with Murray in 3.

Hope Federer has an awesome day though and does it in 4. Fed's serving and Murray's ability to get Fed's serve back in play (with interest) will be the key factor imo.

Murray is one of the best returners like Djokivic but Isner on this court would still have smacked aces and got a loads of free points which would have made him very tough to beat indeed!

Hopefully Murray realizes who he's playing and soils his shorts and is forced to default.
