Wimbledon 2016 predictions

Martin-O2 — Wed, 29 Jun 2016 14:41:47 GMT

Hey guys,

So the 2016 Wimbledon tournament has now kicked off and I was wondering if an of you Tennis fans has any predictions on who will come out on top this year?

I see that the relatively unknown Roger Federer has already got off to a good start! Any other surprises in store or new comers to watch out for?

After today, there will be at least 1 day when no play is lost due to rain (Centre Court excluded)

Well Federer is on court playing Marcus Willis who was unknown to British tennis until he won his first match two days ago....It's the first set of the game and Federer is currently winning 2-0

This is like England v Iceland SHOULD have been.....he's in a different league.

Now 5-0 down. As he said pre match I don't care about the result. I get to play Federer on Centre Court....when would that ever happen again...??

Let's hope he wins at least one game.

If I didn't know better, I'd think Federer was "pacing" himself for 8 games in the 3rd.
