Here’s how Russian Marat Safin explained his chances against rating five-time Wimbledon champion Roger Federer in today’s upcoming semifinal:

“I’m playing semifinals, but that doesn’t mean that I have a chance there, because the guy has won how many times already here? “To beat Federer you need to be Nadal and run around like a rabbit and hit winners from all over the place. … It’s just a little bit too difficult.”

Think he’s trying his best to put the whammy on the greatest grasscourt player who puts a 64-match winning streak on the line?!?!?!?!?!

We’ll find out later on if the much anticipated No.1 vs No.2 battle between Federer and Rafael Nadal comes down again. Nadal will take on German veteran Rainer Schuettler. Both players will be heavy favorites.
