Roger Federer punched his ticket to the finals after he beat last year’s Wimbledon champ Novak Djokovic 6-3, 3-6, 6-4, 6-3 under the roof on Centre Court. 

“I have one more match to go. I’m aware of that,” Federer said. “Still, it’s always nice beating someone like Novak, who has done so well here last year, the last couple years.”

Andy Murray will become the first native son to play in a final since 1938 after he defeated Jo-Wilfried Tsonga 6-3, 6-4, 3-6, 7-5.

“It will be one of the biggest matches of my life,” Murray said. “I’ve had experience with Roger in finals of Slams before, and to use that to my advantage and learn from my mistakes and also the things he did well — it’s going to be a very tough match. He’s playing great tennis as always. Yeah, I’m very excited.”

Federer will be looking to steal away the No.1 world ranking from Djokovic if he is able to beat Murray on Sunday.
