Wimbledon Day 11 - Federer vs. Cilic Final; Venus vs. Muguruza preview and predictions; Who is the most ‘adaptable’ tennis player ever?

Roger Federer will appear in his 11th Wimbledon final, his 29th Grand Slam singles final overall, and against a man that thrashed him in the US Open semifinal in 2014. Tennis Podcast presenters Catherine Whitaker and David Law are joined by Telegraph tennis correspondent Simon Briggs to look back on Federer’s tight three-set win over Tomas Berdych, and the Marin Cilic defeat of Sam Querrey. After six minutes of Briggs talking and typing as he tried to make his deadline, the Federer press conference was announced, and the podcast team went in to throw a few questions of their own at the great man, including … Does he still get nervous after all these years, and how does that manifest itself if so? And would he feel disappointed in the court scheduling (putting him on Centre Court every day) if he were Rafael Nadal or Novak Djokovic? Afterwards, Whitaker and Law looked at the women’s final, speaking to New York Times correspondent Christopher Clarey about the Williams family that he has got to know over the last 20 years. Who will win between Muguruza and Venus? The podcast team make their picks. And as part of the #WhatMakesGreat debate, the podcast team discuss who they see as the most ‘adaptable’ tennis player in the world.
