:00:30.:00:40.
:00:40.:00:50.

Good evening. What a day. If you have missed what happened, you are

:00:50.:00:57.

in for a treat. Greg and Boris are spoilt for choice with so many

:00:57.:01:07.
:01:07.:01:10.

issues to discuss. We will start with the fabulous four. Roger

:01:10.:01:15.

Federer's opponent today was Jo- Wilfried Tsonga, known for his

:01:15.:01:25.
:01:25.:01:34.

Federer was looking for his 60th singles victory at Wimbledon.

:01:34.:01:42.

Tsonga has been serving well, and of course he got to the finals at

:01:42.:01:46.

Queen's. For the bookmakers, there was only one possible outcome to

:01:46.:01:53.

this match. It looked as though they had got this ban on in the

:01:53.:02:03.
:02:03.:02:41.

After Federer won the first set, Tsonga got back into the game. We

:02:41.:02:51.
:02:51.:03:09.

find ourselves in a second set tie- Suddenly, Federer has got the bit

:03:09.:03:19.
:03:19.:03:19.

between his teeth. He was hitting the ball so powerfully today. It is

:03:19.:03:25.

not often you see Federer stranded like that. Hitting the ball like

:03:25.:03:35.
:03:35.:03:37.

that, as hard as that, samba found himself 5-4 up in the third set. --

Superbly resistance from Federer. Deuce. Tsonga is becoming a little

:09:44.:09:51.

bit predictable. He goes for the same corner as every time. -- he

:09:51.:10:01.
:10:01.:10:18.

goes for the same corners every That's the serve that got him all

:10:18.:10:28.
:10:28.:10:29.

the way to the Australian Open final. It might bring him Miss set.

:10:29.:10:39.
:10:39.:10:50.

Some pictures do not need words. Just savour that scan and. In a

:10:50.:10:54.

week where boxing metaphors at everywhere, this was turning into a

:10:54.:11:03.

Samba was throwing the punches and Federer was having to take them --

:11:03.:11:13.
:11:13.:11:23.

Tsonga was throwing the punches and This is an interesting stage of

:11:23.:11:33.
:11:33.:12:07.

That was a very nice backhand from Tsonga. No complaint from Federer,

:12:07.:12:17.
:12:17.:12:40.

He has showcased this single handed back hander. He did not have it the

:12:40.:12:45.

last time I know it! He is really enjoying it. He looks like Stefan

:12:45.:12:51.

Edberg. Maybe you should think about playing it more often single-

:12:51.:12:55.

handed. -- maybe he should think about playing it more often single

:12:56.:13:05.
:13:06.:13:23.

Tsonga is looking to turn this into a muscle match, and no one is

:13:23.:13:33.
:13:33.:14:04.

And Tillakaratne Dilshan break That is what usually happens.

:14:04.:14:14.

Phaidra really was rocking and rolling here. Tsonga was a victim

:14:54.:15:00.

the most unbelievable a lot of punishment on him. -- Federer

:15:00.:15:06.

really was rocking and rolling here. Two set all. All that Tsonga needed

:15:07.:15:16.

was to get one break. This is what happened. Surely, Federer would

:15:16.:15:22.

find a way out of this situation. He had never been two set up in a

:15:22.:15:32.
:15:32.:15:32.

Grand Slam situation and lost. Here is Jo-Wilfried sombre -- here is

:15:32.:15:42.
:15:42.:15:51.

Jo-Wilfried sombre, to send Federer There he is, twisting and shouting

:15:51.:16:01.
:16:01.:16:03.

How does it feel to have not the mighty Roger Federer out? He is the

:16:03.:16:11.

biggest champion. He achieved a lot of things. He is the best player in

:16:12.:16:18.

the world. I am so happy to win against him, especially on grass.

:16:18.:16:27.

It is one of his favourite surfaces. I am so happy today. Throughout the

:16:27.:16:34.

match, I did not give him much, but there was a lucky break in the

:16:34.:16:44.
:16:44.:16:45.

third set for him. He played well throughout the match. Especially he

:16:45.:16:55.
:16:55.:17:18.

served well. He played incredibly you ever think, Boris, that Tsonga

:17:18.:17:28.
:17:28.:18:02.

lapses. He does not ready put Tsonga was the man of the moment.

:18:02.:18:06.

Some of the headline-writers are already writing about a swansong.

:18:06.:18:12.

Is this the end of Federer in terms of being a Grand Slam champion? It

:18:12.:18:22.
:18:22.:18:33.

He played so well at the French Open and showed the world it is not

:18:33.:18:43.
:18:43.:18:54.

just about Djokovic. They changed the grass about a

:18:54.:19:01.

decade ago, they grow it longer. The balls were like pellets, that

:19:01.:19:09.

suited him, he was more aggressive. I think it will be tough for him to

:19:09.:19:15.

win this championship. Is it six Grand Slams that Federer has not

:19:15.:19:21.

won? A year-and-a-half has gone by since he won the title. Time is not

:19:21.:19:30.

on his side, let's be honest. 16 Grand Slam wins, a wife and two

:19:30.:19:34.

beautiful children. Why should he trained even more? He has done it

:19:34.:19:39.

all. That is the question for himself, where his motivation will

:19:39.:19:47.

It is fascinating to think what might happen with Federer in the

:19:47.:19:57.

future. Rafael Nadal is the second member of hour fabulous four. Would

:19:57.:20:07.
:20:07.:20:27.

Mardy Fish is from Minnesota. He is playing against the defending

:20:27.:20:37.
:20:37.:20:40.

champion, who dropped just one set so far. The formbook was a day to

:20:40.:20:48.

as far as the first set was concerned. The big question was how

:20:48.:20:53.

would the foot be after he had that slight injury? There was no sign of

:20:53.:21:03.
:21:03.:21:06.

any problems. I am amazed by it Nadal. I thought he would pull out.

:21:06.:21:16.
:21:16.:21:42.

Next thing you know, he is running What Amman this is, I have never

:21:42.:21:47.

seen a player like Nadal in my seen a player like Nadal in my

:21:47.:21:51.

lifetime. In the end, Nadal came through safely. His face just told

:21:51.:21:56.

you how delighted he was to have you how delighted he was to have

:21:56.:21:59.

overcome yet another opponent. Did your foot give you much

:21:59.:22:09.
:22:09.:22:12.

trouble? It is better. I am fine. The previous match was tough for me.

:22:12.:22:22.
:22:22.:22:22.

For a moment I did not know if I had a serious injury. But with

:22:22.:22:25.

antiinflammatories, it seemed to work.

:22:25.:22:29.

If Federer has got to the top of the hill and is perhaps heading

:22:29.:22:35.

slightly down, is Nadal still improving? I think so. He thrives

:22:35.:22:41.

on competition, he is the ultimate competitor, the more adversity, the

:22:41.:22:47.

better and meaner he gets. He is only 25, he has 10 Grand Slams. If

:22:47.:22:51.

he stays healthy, I don't know how many more times he will win.

:22:51.:22:57.

Federer has set the bar. You always need somebody to catch, for Nadal,

:22:57.:23:05.

it is Federer's 16. To tie Bjorn Borg's record of six French Opens,

:23:05.:23:13.

and now he wants to tie Federer's record of six Wimbledons.

:23:13.:23:19.

Rafael Nadal conscious of this? Is he a record chaser? He comes across

:23:19.:23:24.

very soft spoken, Humble, almost an introvert when out in public, but

:23:24.:23:28.

once he puts those tennis shoes on, that is the last thing you want to

:23:28.:23:31.

face across the net. A back with the Fab Four in a

:23:31.:23:35.

moment, but let's consider the women's semi-finals. Logic says it

:23:35.:23:44.

will be Maria Sharapova against Victoria Azarenka in the final on

:23:44.:23:48.

Saturday... The German! Hang on a moment, we are coming on to that.

:23:48.:23:52.

That is the point of the next item, which is about a German play and

somebody from the Czech Republic How good is your German?

:24:45.:24:52.

reached the semi-final. She had injuries and was not playing tennis

:24:52.:24:58.

for quite a long time. Suddenly she is back in Wimbledon, playing her

:24:58.:25:07.

best. Anything could happen. There has been a lull in German tennis.

:25:07.:25:16.

Might she be taking it forward again? We hope so. We are been

:25:16.:25:22.

waiting for so long. Steffi Graf put the bar sky high. We wanted to

:25:22.:25:27.

have a good semi-final and hopefully come out on top. Tell us

:25:27.:25:32.

about Petra Kvitova there, and a fantastic serve. I think she has

:25:32.:25:37.

one of the best serves in the women's game. She remind you of

:25:37.:25:43.

Martina Navratilova with her serve. She plays well on all surfaces. I

:25:43.:25:47.

think she is starting to get to her peak. I would not be surprised if

:25:47.:25:54.

she went to the finals. So you predictions are? In all honesty, I

:25:54.:26:04.
:26:04.:26:07.

think Sharapova is better, and also Victoria Azarenka. I'm going to go

:26:07.:26:11.

with Petra Kvitova -- I'm going to go with Petra Kvitova, with

# You say you want a revolution Djokovic, player favourite.

:26:57.:27:01.

Determined to reach his first Wimbledon final. Tonic was not

:27:01.:27:11.
:27:11.:27:21.

overawed. It was like a tale of two cities. Bernard Tomic was

:27:21.:27:31.
:27:31.:27:34.

sensational. Here we are end the second set, where Bernard Tomic was

:27:34.:27:40.

very much in the ascendancy. He is playing the world number two, and

:27:41.:27:48.

he is taking him to the cleaners. Pete hitting the ball so hard. --

:27:48.:27:58.
:27:58.:28:02.

he is hitting the ball so hard. Here we are in the third set.

:28:02.:28:11.

Bernard Tomic get a break. Nobody on Court One knew what was

:28:11.:28:17.

happening on Centre Court. This was the quality of the tennis for the

:28:17.:28:25.

first two or three games of the third set. Here's Djokovic, turning

:28:25.:28:35.
:28:35.:28:53.

That's when the game started This is where Bernard Tomic needs

:28:53.:29:03.
:29:03.:29:10.

to take some extra time. He has to A bad unforced error from Djokovic,

:29:10.:29:20.
:29:20.:29:41.

Not much margin for error in Bernard Tomic's game. When he get

:29:41.:29:51.
:29:51.:29:59.

nervous, the unforced errors start Both men have their problems, there

:29:59.:30:09.
:30:09.:30:21.

issues. You start to fear for Five points, five unforced errors!

:30:21.:30:31.
:30:31.:30:41.

Djokovic has not really done much, A horrible, horrible service game

:30:41.:30:47.

from Bernard Tomic. At this point, Tomic was playing

:30:47.:30:56.

horrible tennis. Djokovic found himself two sets to one to the good

:30:56.:31:06.
:31:06.:31:37.

and got an early break in the 4th It is quite frustrating, the harder

:31:37.:31:47.
:31:47.:31:57.

Djokovic hits the ball, the better It has been a long time since Tomic

:31:57.:32:07.
:32:07.:32:21.

had a double fault, that is his Now it is Tomic's turn to suffer.

:32:21.:32:25.

He is doing the right thing, taking a little extra time and not rushing

That was not a great return. An Thinking about the challenge, but

And after being so close to claiming the set, Tomic faces break

Apology for the loss of subtitles for 99 seconds

:34:39.:35:27.

What a caress to finish it! Djokovic is closing in now, closing

:35:27.:35:35.

into the semi-finals. Djokovic was not to be denied. Here

:35:35.:35:44.

he is serving 40-15. Tomic could not get to that ball, so another

:35:44.:35:51.

semi-final for Novak Djokovic. Will he be here on Sunday on Centre

:35:51.:35:53.

Court for his first Wimbledon Court for his first Wimbledon

:35:53.:35:59.

final? Well done. A really tricky match.

:35:59.:36:03.

You are playing somebody you know very well, it is like beating up

:36:03.:36:08.

your kid brother, but you what through to the semi-final. I am

:36:08.:36:13.

delighted to be through. It is a great result. It was a very equal

:36:13.:36:18.

match today. The first set I played quite well, I played one very bad

:36:18.:36:22.

service game, he got back into the match. From that moment he was the

:36:22.:36:30.

better player. I had some very, very difficult service games that I

:36:30.:36:36.

managed to hold. He was up and the third end you got back on track.

:36:36.:36:43.

What caused the reversal of fortunes? He is such an

:36:43.:36:47.

unpredictable player. He is very young. His first Grand Slam

:36:47.:36:51.

quarter-finals, it means a lot, he had nothing to lose. He was hitting

:36:51.:36:57.

a lot of winners, it was hard to predict where he would go. He was

:36:57.:37:03.

not making a lot of unforced errors. That made it really difficult. I

:37:03.:37:08.

have tried to change the pace, but he was better. It was playing cat

:37:08.:37:13.

and mouse. I was just happy to get through in the end. We will talk

:37:13.:37:18.

about the cat in a moment, but as far as Tomic being a mouse, foreign

:37:18.:37:21.

18 year-olds he has had an amazing two-and-a-half weeks, coming

:37:21.:37:25.

through qualifying, his first Grand Slam quarter-finals, he is clearly

:37:25.:37:32.

a man on the move? Yes. The youngest guy to get to the quarter-

:37:32.:37:37.

finals was the man standing behind me, Boris Becker... Last century!

:37:37.:37:41.

If you think of the last teenager in the quarter-finals, Roger

:37:41.:37:47.

Federer, the pedigree is looking very good. He has a very

:37:47.:37:50.

interesting game. He changes the pace, deflect the ball, plays very

:37:50.:37:56.

flat, he is someone to look out for. He has played an awful lot of

:37:56.:38:01.

tennis in the last two-and-a-half weeks, did he just get tired?

:38:01.:38:06.

especially when he was up 3-1, he went walkabout for seven games. He

:38:06.:38:13.

might have been mentally fatigued, he had played eight matches. It

:38:13.:38:17.

maybe was a little bit too much tennis, but he will be very proud.

:38:17.:38:20.

What do you think about how brilliant Djokovic has been all the

:38:20.:38:25.

way through to the epic semi-final at Roland Garros? Do you detect he

:38:25.:38:31.

is slightly off his game? He was maybe tested today, I don't really

:38:31.:38:36.

believe he was tested and the other matches. He is flying under the

:38:36.:38:44.

radar. He lost only one match to Roger Federer. He has won six other

:38:44.:38:48.

tournaments, beating Nadal back-to- back, clay, but nobody talks about

:38:48.:38:53.

it. He is fine with that, he has experienced, he is in the semi-

:38:53.:38:57.

finals. He is not playing his best tennis but he was not challenged

:38:57.:39:02.

today. He is under the radar because he does not move as well on

:39:02.:39:05.

the grass courts, I don't see him as comfortable. You think he can

:39:05.:39:11.

win the other three majors, on the grass, I am not too sure. Tsonga

:39:11.:39:16.

has a great record at 5-2 against him, but I bet he feels good about

:39:16.:39:20.

his chances. Now the last of the FA before, our

:39:20.:39:26.

man, a bigger and somebody who, if you believe the papers, has rather

:39:26.:39:36.
:39:36.:39:47.

Murray was eyeing a third Grand Slam semi-final this year, but

:39:47.:39:53.

Feliciano Lopez was probably wielding the most potent weapon in

:39:53.:40:00.

the entire draw, his serve, he has 22 aces more than anyone else. It

:40:00.:40:10.
:40:10.:40:11.

Apology for the loss of subtitles for 99 seconds

:40:11.:40:55.

Maybe a little closer than he thought when he went for the

:40:55.:40:59.

challenge, but more out of frustration for losing it. He has

:40:59.:41:09.
:41:09.:41:28.

Just a cup of these early exchanges, you feel Murray has had lost

:41:28.:41:38.
:41:38.:41:54.

chances, and he would like to get He has pecked him back to deuce,

:41:54.:42:01.

but he might have got a break. His instincts were right, he would have

:42:01.:42:11.
:42:11.:42:33.

had a second serve that 0-30. -- For me, the best returner in the

:42:33.:42:43.
:42:43.:43:12.

It is the solid 121 mph second serve. Brave when you make it and

:43:12.:43:22.
:43:22.:43:22.

:43:22.:45:09.

Credit to Lopez, he took his chance Lewis Hamilton with his brother.

:45:09.:45:15.

Enjoying their time here. It has not been such an enjoyable time for

:45:15.:45:19.

Lewis Hamilton in F1 recently, he will hope his fortunes change for

:45:20.:45:29.
:45:30.:45:55.

Murray was just frustrated he could not get more on the return. It was

:45:55.:45:59.

a good second serve into the body but he really needed to get the

:45:59.:46:09.
:46:09.:46:31.

ball deep or onto the Lopez The Spaniard has shown good

:46:31.:46:41.
:46:41.:46:53.

It was broken that time. The best return of the first set.

:46:53.:47:03.
:47:03.:47:10.

The familiar clenching of the first, Six games to three, muted applause

:47:10.:47:14.

in the players' box. Given what happened UN Centre Court earlier,

:47:14.:47:20.

you never quite knew what would happen. But in the second set...

:47:21.:47:28.

Some great play from Murray. So easy.

:47:28.:47:31.

Two sets up, things going swimmingly, but the Spaniard was

:47:31.:47:41.
:47:41.:47:57.

not going to lie down. Some lovely Doing to Murray what Murray often

:47:57.:48:03.

does to everybody else. Two games does to everybody else. Two games

:48:03.:48:05.

all, this is the time for Murray to kick on all four Lopez to fight

:48:05.:48:13.

back into contention. -- for Murray to pick on, or for Lopez to fight

:48:13.:48:23.
:48:23.:48:54.

Ever since the physio came on court, Murray does not want to waste more

Into the semi-finals again, watched by lots of famous people. I am sure

Describe your motions of reaching another semi-final. I do not ready

The way you have played, you must going with supreme confidence?

need to to have a chance. I will have to play my best to do that.

:52:14.:52:20.

Handling the occasion, you have been there before, will you be any

:52:20.:52:26.

less nervous or will it be the same as previously? I want to be nervous

:52:26.:52:33.

going into the match. That is important, it shows that you care,

:52:33.:52:37.

but once you get out there you have to make sure that nerves do not

:52:37.:52:47.

cloud your way of thinking. Maybe as you want them to, and you are

:52:47.:52:50.

thinking clearly out there. Let's talk Murray Nadal in a moment,

:52:50.:52:57.

but what about Murray today? He had a perfect game against Lopez, he is

:52:57.:52:59.

one of the best returners in the game against potentially the best

:52:59.:53:05.

server. The grass is not as fast as it was, the balls are slower.

:53:05.:53:10.

Pretty much from the get go Murray was the favourite to win. I have to

:53:10.:53:16.

agree. I thought he would be successful before the match.

:53:16.:53:22.

frog came out of my throat! It was one of those matches where you knew

:53:22.:53:26.

Murray was not going to lose, but he was very convincing. The only

:53:26.:53:31.

problem was he hurt his groin slightly in the third set, we are

:53:31.:53:37.

hoping he is 100% healthy for Rafael Nadal. Nadal has a bad foot.

:53:37.:53:42.

But for a man with a bad foot, he moved well today. We will talk

:53:42.:53:46.

about the semi-finals in a moment, but we still have action going on.

:53:46.:53:55.

The draws are thinning out, a lot The only other British males still

Stockport knocked out his opponent 6-4, 7-5, to reach the quarter-

Lisa Raymond finished on the losing end of their marathon match in the

Women's Doubles quarter-finals. After taking the first set, they

Heather Watson of Britain, but sadly she and Ross Hutchins went

out of their match, which you might have watched earlier on BBC Two. It

was not a great day all round for Ross Hutchins, having lost in the

men's and Mixed Doubles. Colin Fleming lost as his doubles partner,

Fleming lost as his doubles partner, but here he is, one set all, and he

watching that. Well done to them. Looking at what is happening

tonight it looks fantastic, the attitude that Sabine Lisicki has,

:56:23.:56:27.

she makes a mistake and smiles, can you do that and be a champion?

:56:27.:56:33.

could not, but I am sure the players can. It is good to see. She

:56:33.:56:38.

is on the comeback trail. She had a is on the comeback trail. She had a

:56:38.:56:45.

day off. She has a good time, why not? I look at Sharapova, she looks

:56:45.:56:50.

like a woman on a mission. They had but windy day when she lost to Li

:56:50.:56:54.

Na, that was the only time she could not win. From round one she

:56:54.:56:58.

does not give an inch to anybody, that is why I think she is the

:56:58.:57:02.

favourite. After an epic day, this favourite. After an epic day, this

:57:02.:57:05.

is the semi-final line-up that we have for Friday afternoon for the

:57:05.:57:11.

men's. Who will win? I pick Nadal from the

:57:11.:57:16.

beginning of the Championships, my heart says Murray but my head says

:57:16.:57:24.

Nadal. Tsonga/Djokovic is fascinating. From Tsonga's

:57:24.:57:26.

performance today, I think there performance today, I think there

:57:26.:57:32.

could be an upset. I will go with Murray. Hopefully. It is his time.

:57:32.:57:37.

I have not seen him play so well. He went through to the quarter-

:57:37.:57:43.

finals, Nadal, I think he is still a bit injured with the ankle. The

:57:43.:57:47.

more he runs, you will feel it eventually. More importantly, I

:57:47.:57:53.

feel it is Andy Murray's time. Tsonga is the man at the moment,

:57:53.:57:59.

but can he do it two matches in a row? I put my money on Djokovic.

:57:59.:58:03.

Could we have a repeat of the Queen's final, Tsonga against

:58:03.:58:08.

Murray? It has only happened once in history, Connors and McEnroe,

:58:08.:58:13.

1982, the same result at Queen's and Wimbledon. Wouldn't that be

:58:13.:58:17.

fabulous? And if the final at Wimbledon on Sunday was as good a

:58:18.:58:22.

final as the one at Queen's. It is an extraordinary day. You would

:58:22.:58:25.

never have thought that Federer would have found himself two sets

:58:25.:58:29.

up and going out in five, the first time it has ever happened to

:58:29.:58:33.

arguably the greatest player in the world in his entire Grand Slam
