The Olympics 2012 Gold Medal Match between Roger Federer vs Andy Murray is a replay of the title match at the 2012 Wimbledon Championships early last month and during that match it was Federer who prevailed in four sets which left Murray in tears. This time Murray has a chance to avenge that painful defeat at the same stage at the All England Club on Sunday, August 5.
Federer beat Juan Martin del Potro of Argentina in an Olympic record-setting four hours and 26 minutes. This time frame is usually for five-set matches but the Federer vs Del Potro semifinal match was contested only in a best-of-three format. Murray, on the other hand, found his rhythm to beat 2011 Wimbledon champion Novak Djokovic 7-5, 7-5.
Records show that Murray has a lead in head-to-head series against Federer but the latter has won all their encounters in Major tournaments which means the Swiss star is the heavy favorite to win his first Olympic gold medal in singles. A victory on Sunday would place Federer with Andre Agassi and Rafael Nadal as the only male players to have completed the Career Golden Slam in singles. Who’s your pick?
