Andy Murray Wins Olympic Gold in Wimbledon
Andy Murray finally wins a big tournament after coming up short in three Grand Slams finals. It was 6-1, 6-2, 6-4, against no other than the great Roger Federer, who beat Murray just a month ago in the Wimbledon final. Roger looked flat from his marathon semi-final vs. Del Potro and couldn't convert any break points against Andy. In fact, Roger barely held serve and on grass, a rarity. This reminds me a bit of when Federer lost the 2009 US Open final to Del Potro by having one of those "missing everything" type of days.

Federer defeats Murray, 4-6, 7-5, 6-3, 6-4 for 7th Wimbledon Title
How many more can Roger Federer win? Also, would Roger have won if he had to beat his arch-nemesis Nadal? Regardless of all these questions, Federer has once again impressed the tennis world by regaining his #1 ranking after losing it after the week of June 6, 2010.
Murray played extremely well, starting off by winning the first set but after there was a rain delay and the Centre Court roof was closed, Federer's level increased tremendously. Roger started to take advantage of Murray's predictable second serve (to Roger's backhand) and went on to win a 19-minute game on Murray's serve.

Serena Williams defeats Agnieszka Radwanska to Win 5th Wimbledon Title
Serena cruised through the first set 6-1 and then lost an error-filled second set, 5-7 and rebounded to win the third 6-2 to win the 2012 Wimbledon final. It was no surprise given Serena's dominance in the game when she isn't out due to some weird injury (stepping on broken glass?!?). Radwanska apparently had an "upper respiratory illness" which is really bad luck given her fierce opponent and career-making opportunity.

So I was lucky enough to get tickets for the first two days at Wimbledon this year and after reading up on various forums and travel sites, I've created a guide on what to expect for those who are thinking of visiting the All England Lawn Tennis Club.

Wimbledon: How Far Can Milos Raonic Go?
Raonic also faced Federer three times already this year, each going to a third decisive set. With Wimbledon just around the corner, there's a good chance that he bests his performance of last year where he reached the second round.
