Who would you make favourite for Wimbledon?

[Laurie]

Now that Novak is out, who would you make favourite? I make Federer favourite, even though he is 34 years old going on 35, I still would not fancy Murray to be able to beat him. What do you reckon?

Murray with Federer close 2nd. Can't favor Fed over him, despite the beat down last year.

 

[Maestroesque]

Federer, he's still been beating Murray constantly, he needs to take this opportunity now, unfortunately there are signs of USO14 where he lost after Djokovic, but this is grass, and he should be ok. Here's hoping for no.18 and for @FedFosterWallace to start BEL18VING again.

Murray is the slight favorite over Federer. If they both make the final, I'd favor Federer.

 

[Wynter]

This is meant to be in Pro Match Results tbh.

 

[D.Nalby12]

I'm unconvinced that Federer has regained enough form to win. So Murray.

100% Agree. Once Federer makes Final, hard to see him losing to Murray.

 

[Federer and Del Potro]

Wash between Federer and Murray. Murray form better right now, but also hasn't beaten Federer since 2013 and 5 straight losses since then.

Frankly not thinking about it much because both have a lot of work to do before the final.

Alternatively these upsets could make the path even more easier for Roger.
So can't say he'd be the clear favourite there in final.
50/50 i'd think if he gets there.

At his age, the easier his path to the final, the better his chances in the final (if he gets there). I've felt for a while now that Federer has Murray "figured out". The only question is if he's still got the necessary level.

No Tomic love

Murray, simply because he's the highest-ranked player left in the draw.

That being said, if Nadal didn't withdraw from Wimbledon 2016, I would have had him placed as the favourite. Nadal played some of his best-ever tennis at Roland Garros 2016 before his campaign was interrupted by a wrist, forcing him out with injury. Without that obstacle, Nadal would have continued his slam dominance over Dj and danced his way to a 15th slam (and 10th RG). And then Nadal, just like in 2010, would make the effortless transition to grass-courts (that Dj simply isn't capable of).

Nadal is toast, bro.

Murray, but Federer has a good chance if he can raise his level.

Murray

How is fed playing

 

[Krish872007]

Murray of course.

At least for now considering the form he's in - Federer still needs to prove his point this tournament.If they both reach the final things may change.

I think you have forgotten to use the word "world history"

Would love to see Federer win but I think this is Murray's title now. Its a shame for Federer that this couldnt have happened to Djokovic last year as he would have won it Im sure. This year, with his lack of tennis and coming back from injury etc, although there has been moments of genius, Im not sure his general level is quite what it was last year and he has played clowns so far in the tournament. I think he will win his next match but I think he could potentially struggle against Cilic and Raonic

Murray looks so strong and now has Lendl back in his corner. Even with Djokovic still in and playing well, I still would have given him a good chance of winning.

 

[70後]

If Mahut doesn't win this whole thing, I will go with Nishikori.

 

[Aussie Darcy]

I think it's sad that Querrey isn't even an option considering he did the hard yards and pulled off the upset to open the draw up. Also find it odd to see players who are stuck in the 3R like Kyrgios who's at a set all to Lopez and DelPo who's down 2 sets to 1 to Pouille or Berdych who has to start his match against Zverev!

Meanwhile Nishikori, Tomic, Cilic and Goffin aren't options despite being in the 4R.

 

[Cenarius]

Cilic will end Federer´s journey.And Murray is now the main favorite.
