I think he'll do better at Wimbledon and should be able to reach the QFs. There will be people questioning, after today, just how long Federer can continue to play at this level for.
I thought the final set would be tighter than it eventually was, but that was a brilliant performance from Gulbis. Really lived up to his big talk before the match. Could we see him go all the way?

I think he just wants win another (probs Wimbledon) and then he'll retire

I think it'll be interesting to see him play versus djok...
Anyway, biggest match of the day now. Djok vs tsonga is always really good
Federer's 2014 season is slowly turning into his 2013 season. He best win in Halle and at least reach the SFs of Wimbledon.
His momentum was disrupted somewhat when his two boys were born. Didn't get as much preparation for the French as he may have otherwise, and to be fair he played well. Gulbis played brilliantly.
I don't agree that it's like his 2013 season though - his play overall has been much more solid. We will see what happens on the grass of Wimbledon.
Just found out that Federer had set points in the 2nd set on his serve. He seems to be a master of losing matches after squandering set and match points. What a mug!
And Jo Willy is a bigger mug today. Poor french people putting their hopes on this clown.
absolutely rubbish from Tsonga – very underwhelming given what he’s capable of. Great game from Nole’s perspective, a routine 6-1, 6-4, 6-1 win. Raonic up next!

Depends on the Wimbledon draw. A very good draw and plenty of practice could see him reach the semis (given that he made the semis at the AO) His clay game is obviously what has suffered the most since his peak. I still think he played a solid match, Ernests was much better on the big points
Great win for Djokovic to save his energy for what should be a more competitive match with Raonic. I say Djokovic in 4 and he should really make the final at least with Federer going out
