The Wimbledon quarter-finals will start Tuesday with the women's singles:
Zheng vs. Vaidova;
Radwanska vs. S.Williams;
Dementieva vs. Petrova;
V. Williams vs. Tanasugarn.
Then on Wednesday with the men's singles:
Federer vs. Ancic;
Lopez vs. Safin or Warinka [their match is ongoing, I want Safin to win]
Schuettler vs. Cilic or Clement [their match is ongoing as of this time]
Nadal vs. Murray or Gasquet [I'm guessing on Murray to win]
Not much rain delay this year, only had one so far, that lasted about an hour and a half. I am hoping no more rain delays will take place in the coming days.
Mario Ancic reached the semis in 2004. Didn't get to play last year due to injury. Had long matches in his 2nd, 3rd & 4th rounds in this year's Wimbledon. He'll face Roger Federer [5 time Wimbledon champion] for the quarter-finals. Will he win it? We'll find out on Wednesday.
He was soooo close from beating Roger Federer on their 5-set finals last year. Could this year be his? I hope so.
China's Zheng Jie will have her first quarter-final appearance in Wimbledon. She beat #1 Ivanovic on the third round. I want her to win but she still need to get past the Williams sisters [if they win their respective quarter-final matches that is]. Go Zheng Jie. This is her best Wimbledon performance to date. She reached 3rd round in 2006 vs Venus Williams.
This was their 3rd Wimbledon finals. Rafael Nadal was so close in winning it last year but Roger Federer won it in 5 sets. 
It was one of the best matches [I thought their 5-set match last year was the best but this was even better...what's better than best? hee] I've watched. With a few rain delays, the match turned into another 5-setter, Nadal comfortably won the first two sets at 6-4, 6-4. I thought he was gonna win it in 3 sets. A rain delay interrupted the third set, it was close, none of them breaking a serve, until it reached on a 3rd set tie-break. Federer won it. Then came the 4th set, another close game, no one was dropping their serves, another tie-breaker, Rafa had a few chances of winning the match but again, it went to Federer's favor. As the fifth set begins, it was the same thing all over again, no one was breaking and no one was dropping their serves. A rain delay occurred, good thing it was only a short one. In Wimbledon, there's no tie-break on the fifth set, could have worked for Rafa's favor since he can't seem to win a set in tie-breaks with Federer. Rafa finally broke Federer's serve to get an 8-7 lead and he served for the match and ended it at 9-7. WOW. It was really an awesome match. I can only imagine how the people who were actually there felt. Someday somehow, I hope to be able to witness a live Wimbledon match. It might not be between Rafa and Federer but still, I know, I would love that. Will they meet again for a 4th consecutive Wimbledon finals next year? We just have to wait and see.
