Andy Murray’s Wimbledon Chances Are Stronger Than They Have Ever Been

The two hottest players on grass courts at the moment also happen to be two members of the fabled Big Four in tennis: Andy Murray and Roger Federer. Both Murray and Federer have been two sides of the same coin in some ways throughout 2013 so far. Where one has been up, the other has likely been down.

Roland Garros Defeat for Roger Federer Signals End of an Era at the French Open
