Federer has never had to start a grand slam with back-to-back five setters but it appears that he got his act together and started playing well by beating Lopez in straight sets last night. Kohlschreiber should pose no problems we should get to see the match that every tennis fan has been waiting for in the last 12 years: Federer vs. Rafa in the semis. My pick was on Rafa based on Federer's first two matches, but now goes back to Federer based on his last match. Might as well just flip a coin because that's basically what it is. My obvious prediction: whoever wins the semis from the top half wins the championship as the bottom half has already been decimated.
