I really don't know what to say about this, but just learning (and remembering now) that both Soderling and Murray are the only two men in the draw still thus far who have dropped only two sets or less in the entire tournament, do you think either of these men has a higher than -realistically-likely shot to claim Wimbledon's title this year? Stemming from yesterday, Murray has won in straight sets against all his competitors thus far, and only until yesterday, (when he and Ferrer took it to five sets) I believe Soderling had done the same, in cruising towards a win against all his comers.
On the opposite side of the scale, it has seemed as though both Federer and Nadal, between them, have had four particularly scary matches in which they faced and were teetering on the brink of elimination. Yet they are both still through to the quarters.
I'll get to more musings later, if others would like to indulge me.
