Djokovic won that one in five sets to keep Federer stuck on seven trophies at the All England Club, tied with Pete Sampras and 1880s player Willie Renshaw, and a record 17 Grand Slam trophies overall. Djokovic, who also won Wim - bledon in 2011 and owns eight major titles, advanced by beating No. 21 Richard Gasquet 7-6 (2), 6- 4, 6-4. Nine of Gasquet’s first 10 win - ners came via his smooth, one- handed backhand, but that stroke eventually let him down.

Murray delivered a 129 mph ace to pull out an epic seven-deuce, 15-minute game, saving five set points along the way, to get to 5-all in the second set. As he strutted near the Centre Court stands, shaking his fist and roaring, spectators loudly saluted the The Commercial Review/Chris Schanz effort with a standing ova - tion. “I,” Federer would say later, “was screaming inside.” Was Murray suddenly making a match of it?
