Wimbledon Semi Finals Live for Men's Final Four

The Wimbledon semi finals are live for today, as the live men's semi finals try to match the Wimbledon women's semi finals. Today's live Wimbledon semi finals could see history being made in both matches, setting things up for an even more historic Wimbledon final. The Wimbledon semi finals have Roger Federer trying to move closer to a record 15'th Grand Slam, but he will not be the crowd favorite. The real main event in Britain for the Wimbledon semi finals is Andy Murray, whom the whole country will be cheering for live later today.

For the first of the Wimbledon semi finals, Roger Federer tries to take care of business. Federer is the heavy favorite against the most unlikely player in the semi finals, 24'th seeded Tommy Haas. However, Haas may have come to play, as Federer had to work hard to beat Haas 7-6 in the first set.

A Haas win would knock Federer out in the Wimbledon semi finals for the first time in many years. The Wimbledon crowd may root for it, since Haas is the underdog - and since Haas may be an easier opponent in the Wimbledon finals for Andy Murray.

But Murray has to get through the Wimbledon semi finals first, as his live match will likely be at around noon est. The villain going against him will be Andy Roddick, as he continues to try and get his second Grand Slam title.

If Federer gets through the semi finals, he may want to root for Roddick to win. This is partly because no one will root for Federer against Murray, and because Murray has beaten Federer frequently in his career - while Roddick loses constantly to Federer in Grand Slams.

No matter what, a Federer-Murray final may even surpass the hype of Federer-Nadal last year, at least in Britain. Even though Murray is Scottish, he is Britain's adopted son, as he tries to be the first British Wimbledon champion since the 1930's.

Today's live Wimbledon semi finals will be hard pressed to be like yesterday's women's semi finals. The first match was an instant classic between Serena Williams and Elena Dementieva, while the second was an absolute blowout for Venus Williams against Dinara Safina. Fans obvious hope tomorrow's all Williams final will be more like an instant classic.

For today, the Wimbledon semi finals are the top event in Britain, blowout or not - or at least they will be when Murray takes the court.
