When top-seeded Rafael Nadal announced his withdrawl from Wimbledon late last week because of sore knees, he took with him any suspense from this year's tournament. Now, the people at the All England Lawn Tennis Club should just give Roger Federer, who lost to Nadal in an epic five-set match in 2008, the trophy.
I don't see Andy Murray, Andy Roddick, Novak Djokovic or anyone else beating Federer, who with a victory will surpass Pete Sampras for all-time major wins. He'll also notch his sixth Wimbledon win, which will bring him to within one of Sampras' seven titles.
When Federer does win a few Sundays from now, it'll be tougher to say Sampras is the greatest of all time.

I'm still rooting for Federer, even though he won't have to beat the best player to earn his 15th Grand Slam title.
I hope he gets that whiny weiner Andy Murray in the final and mops the grass court with him.
