I thought he did really good in the french open, despite him losing to nadal in the finals. That is the best i've ever seen federer play on clay this year and if he was giving nadal that much trouble on clay, then I reckon federer would have a really good shot at winning on grass against nadal, that is if they end up in the finals=]

Will Roger Federer win Wimbledon 2011?

Although he had an amazing performance at the French Open, I think that he is getting too old to compete with the current and up-and-coming players, so I don't think that he will win Wimbledon. I think that it could be Djokovic or Nadal, because Djokovic is really rising this year despite his loss to Federer and the end of his streak. Nadal can win because he is and has always been such a great player, and I think that he can win.

I think it's 30% chance that Federer wins, 30% for Nadal, 30% for Djokovic, 5% for Murray, 5% for someone else.
You gotta remember that Federer made it to the Wimbledon final 7 times in a row 2003-2009, winning 6 of them. Seriously, 7 Wimbledon finals in a row. He lost last year in quarter-finals but that's because Tomas Berdych was on fire. He beat Djokovic in the semis as well.
Federer's win-lose record on clay is 76% but on grass it's 87% so this is the surface he has the advantage. And if you remember how well he played in the French Open, making it to the final and havin REALLY good match against the King of Clay....how do you think he's going to perform on his favourite surface?
The only reason why people don't call Federer the King of Grass like they call Nadal the King of Clay is because Federer has won so many Grand Slam titles on other surfaces as well, 9 on hard court, 1 on clay. While Nadal has won most of his Grand Slams on clay. But Federer is pretty much King of Grass in the same way Nadal is the King of clay, both of them have 6 Grand Slam wins on their favourite surfaces.
