Wimbledon 2014 Tennis Live Stream, Schedule, Preview: Roger Federer, Novak Djokovic, Andy Murray in Action
After an upset-filled fourth round, Roger Federer, Novak Djokovic, and Andy Murray will look to avoid suffering a surprising exit when they compete in the quarterfinals of the 2014 Wimbledon.
Federer, who is targeting his eighth Wimbledon title and his first grand slam since 2012, will face compatriot Stan Wawrinka in the quarterfinals on Wednesday.
The fifth-seeded Federer booked a spot in the quarterfinals with an impressive 6-1, 6-4, 6-4 win against Tommy Robredo of Spain on Tuesday.
Federer has been playing well in the tournament, having yet to surrender a set, while only losing 32 games in his first four matches. The former world No. 1 feels that he is in great shape heading into the crucial part of the tournament.
"Clearly I'm very pleased with the first week, and here we go now into the quarters," Federer said via ESPN. "It's always really exciting being so deep into a tournament and feeling you are closer to the finish line. I've played a lot of matches so things are exactly where I want them to be, but then again you're sort of only in the quarterfinals and that's when the tournament kind of really starts."
Wawrinka, who defeated Feliciano Lopez in the fourth round, has lost in 13 of 15 previous matches against Federer, but he is coming off a big win in the Monte Carlo final, and the fifth-seeded Swiss said that the win will give him confidence heading into their match on Wednesday.
Top-seeded Novak Djokovic will also look to progress to the semifinals when he takes on Marin Cilic of Croatia in the second match on the No. 1 Court, following the showdown between Eugenie Bouchard and Angelique Kerber.
Defending champion Andy Murray will resume his quest for back-to-back Wimbledon titles against 11th seed Grigor Dimitrov of Bulgaria.
