Wimbledon - Advantage Federer as Wimbledon beckonsRoger Federer begins his campaign for a sixth Wimbledon title today, rejuvenated by finally lifting his French Open jinx and seeing injured rival Rafael Nadal limp out of contention.
Twelve months ago, Federer's five-year All England Club domination was brought to an end by Nadal in a five-set classic now widely regarded as the greatest Grand Slam final of all time.
But with deposed Roland Garros champion Nadal forced to pull out to rest his injured knees, Federer has a golden opportunity to move within one title of Pete Sampras's record of seven Wimbledon triumphs.
"I don't feel like I have extra pressure," said world number two Federer.
"There's a lot of weight off my shoulders since Paris. So I'm entering tournaments a little bit more relaxed these days."

I'm with you Hakkie, I was willing Murray to win, but alas it wasn't to be this year!
Now it's up to Federer to do the deed!
Would love to see a 5 setter but I doubt it will happen, Feds is a 3 set man, 4 at a push lol

I was gutted when he lost, but he's played really well and there's always next year. I'm going to be cheering on Andy Roddick to win because I think he's a great player and he deserves to win it for once.
