AND THEN THERE were four.

Today sees the men’s singles semi-finals take place at SW19 and both matches promise to be quite intriguing.

Up first on Centre Court is Roger Federer against Milos Raonic and that’s followed by Andy Murray’s meeting with Thomas Berdych.

And it’s a pretty nice match-up when you consider the numbers.

Raonic takes on Federer – the powerful, big-serving Canadian against the more considered Swiss.

Raonic, now coached by John McEnroe, is the strongest server in the tournament – hitting 114 aces so far. He also covers the least amount of ground per match – dedicating his strategy around finishing points quickly rather getting involved in longer rallies.

He’s managed to hit 75% of his first serves in too.

In the other semi, Murray is pitched against Berdych – with both players enjoying the endurance and high-energy approach, averaging over 7 miles per match.

They also know how to hit opponents when it matters most – taking the highest amount of break points in the tournament.
