Tommy Haas pulls off a sensational win over Novak Djokovic yesterday to now join Murray, Roddick and Federer as a favorite and into the semi-finals – Bravo Tommy and continued success !

Here’s some background info via Wimbledon.org on the upcoming Haas vs Federer match:

Not only do Roger Federer and Tommy Haas have a combined age of 59, they can also play a brand of tennis more reminiscent of the good old days – serve and volley, chip and charge, attacking the net. The grass on Centre Court is bald behind the baseline (“like playing on clay”, grinned women’s semi-finalist Dinara Safina) and pristine nearer the net – a reflection of how modern players prefer to hang back, wait for mistakes and paint the corners.
Both Federer and Haas, however, are experts at keeping the points short, and high-octane tennis should definitely be the order of the day.
