Federer back to his best dispatching Djokovic in 4. Rafa crushed Murray in straight sets. Sets up dream final, hope Rafa flogs Federer. My tip Rafa in 4

Rafa's done.

Not only in this tournament, but this could be the beginning of the end for him.

Djokovic has given everyone a heads up on how to beat him. Go hard to the forehand, get a short ball, punish it.

Obviously only the heavyweights can do it, but I think he's in serious trouble.

A tad early to call that ... will be a long night :lol:

The Fed super agressive so far ... good to see.

Rafa's just too good ... only he could have won that first set after the Fed started on fire.

Unless it's 1-1 after 2 sets it's all over folks.

Wow, Roger really cannot 'hack it' against Rafa. He's got no confidence to finish things against him.

I dare say, Rafa defenately has the 'mental' edge over fed at Roland Garros.
Once fed starts to believe he can beat nadal on clay it might actually happen, may be too little too late though!
