The second and final Friday at Wimbledon brings us the men's semis

The opening act will include Jo-Wilfried Tsonga and Novak Djokovic.  Tsonga holds a 5-2 career edge against the Serb, but all of those meetings were on hardcourts and these two haven't played since the 2010 Australian Open.  No matter how well Tsonga is playing, I like the determination and attitude Djokovic is playing with. 

Prediction: The Serb will pull it out in 4 tough sets.

The second match or main event will have the tennis world watching.  Rafael Nadal and Andy Murray.  Nadal holds a big career edge and two victories on grass at Wimbledon.  I don't expect anything to change on Friday and I like Nadal.

Prediction: Nadal in 3 sets.
