Federer seeks to break Djokovic spell in Wimbledon final

“stars have aligned” as he attempts to become the oldest Grand Slam winner of modern times in Sunday’s final against Novak Djokovic.

However, Federer, who will be 38 next month, insists such statistics are meaningless as he attempts to succeed Ken Rosewall, at the 1972 Australian Open, as the oldest Slam champion of the Open era. Appearing in his 12th final at the All England Club, and 16 years after his maiden Wimbledon title triumph, Federer believes there is little new that either he or Djokovic can do to prepare for Sunday’s showdown.

Too intense and too new age for modest British tastes, Djokovic did little to endear himself in his semi-final win over Roberto Bautista Agut.

Hmm... What a pity.. U are more concerned about sports than the education of the future leaders...even u ain't willing to protest for us so that jamb can reopen the portal.... This is so shameful

Mouthwatering class... Best of luck Roger Federer
