While Rafa Nadal has been serious in dominating the clay courts of Roland Garros, Roger Federer is trying to do the same on grass at Wimbledon, aiming for a ninth title overall and a second consecutive one from last year.
He should be able to get to the semi-final stage without much hitches as all his prospective opponents don't really have that much pedigree on grass.
I think it's only when he possibly meets Cilic and Nadal where he has to really push his game - in the semi's and finals, prospectively. But, well, you never know in tennis, that's why there are spectacular upsets.
His prospective opponents - Lacko, Struff, Garcia-Lopez and Kevin Anderson will have to bring their A-games to the court since Roger really planned for this tournament, skipping and resting during the clay season - so he is fresh for the battle.
