Seven-time champion Roger Federer reached the Wimbledon semi-finals for the 12th time yesterday with a 6-4, 6-2, 7-6 (7/4) win over Milos Raonic.
Federer, 35, and playing in his 100th match at the All England Club, will now face 2010 runner-up Tomas Berdych for a place in Sunday’s final. Canadian sixth seed Raonic had knocked out Federer in the semi-finals in 2016, a defeat which led the Swiss ace shutting down the rest of his season to rest a knee injury. In 2005, both Federer and Venus Williams had won Wimbledon. Will history repeat itself this year?
