WIMBLEDON DAY 11 TIPS

ONLY Roger Federer has failed to join the big four party at Wimbledon after his shock defeat to Jo-Wilfried Tsonga in the semi-finals.

Rafa Nadal, Novak Djokovic and Andy Murray all eased through but six-time champ Fed busted thousands of lines as he threw away a two-set lead.

I had tipped the world's best four to contest the semis so Federer's defeat was disappointing but on the other hand it's good to see a different face in the semis.

So now it's Nadal v Murray and Djokovic v Tsonga with the final expected to be Nadal Djokovic.

Murray is, of course, trying to remove several monkeys off his back with a first Grand Slam win and first Wimbledon by a Brit for 75 years.

Under such intense pressure he's done well to match his seeding and reach a third straight Wimbledon semi-final and his third Grand Slam semi-final of the season.

However, his problem is how does he get the better of Nadal. The Spaniard is aiming for a third successive SW19 crown and possibly only injury will stop him.

Murray faces a huge task and even if he goes down I can see him pushing the champ all the way.

Nadal is a best 1-2 with William Hill and Betfred while Murray is 7-4 at firms such as Paddy Power and Ladbrokes.

The match is 8-5 at boylesports to go three sets, 8-5 four and 11-4 with Skybet to go all the way.

Nadal 3-2 is 9-2 with Blue Square and Hills and Murray 3-2 is 13-2 at Skybet.

In the other semi Djokovic is a biggest 8-15 with sportingbet while Tsonga is 15-8 at Betfred.

Tsonga's display to beat Federer was incredible but may have taken too much out of him. The Serb has been up and down at Wimbledon but should have enough to book a final slot.

This could be 3-1 Djokovic which pays 10-3 at sportingbet.

A Djokovic v Nadal final is 1-1, Nadal v Tsonga is 3-1, Murray v Djokovic is 3-1 and Murray v Tsonga is 7-1.

Recommendation

Murray v Nadal 5 sets

(11-4, Skybet)
