BreakPoint
Bionic Poster
It could have been an epic final - the hometown hero versus the worldwide fan favorite icon. Centre Court would have been rockin' n rollin'. It could have been tremendous. Murray is the odds makers' favorite but he also has a history of choking in Slam finals against Federer. Federer would have had extra motivation knowing that this was likely his last best chance of winning Wimbledon again (by far the tournament he holds in the highest esteem) or any Slam at all. He may never get another chance at number 18.
Somehow I feel robbed that this epic final never materialized. Damn you, Federer! You had that semifinal! If you had only converted one of those numerous break points in the 4th set or not double-faulted twice in a row to hand Raonic the 4th set after being up 40-0. Your fans could have been treated to something very special and the memory of a lifetime. No worries, though.
With that said, your fans still support you 100% and have confidence in you to earn another chance, perhaps even next year. Good luck in Rio and in New York.
