As expected, World #3 Roger Federer continued his unbeaten record against Feliciano Lopez, as did Jo-Wilfried Tsonga against Grigor Dimitrov. It was Federer's 11th consecutive win against the Spaniard and Tsongas 4th consecutive win against the Bulgarian. It was also the Frenchman's 3rd consecutive Top 10 win in as many matches this week. He has beaten World #1 Nivak Djokovic, World #9 Andy Murray and World #8 Grigor Dimitrov. I actually expected Dimitrov to turn things around against Tsonga, but instead he lost in straight sets.
Federer has a 11-4 head-to-head advantage against Tsonga and will be playing in his 120th career ATP Tour final, trying for his 80th title. Tsonga is playing in his 20th final, trying for his 11th title
MadProfessah's pick: Federer!
