    Tsonga Comes From 2 Sets Down But Murray Prevails In Fifth

    Jo-Wilfred Tsonga did his best to duplicate Roger Federer's earlier effort in his quarter final match with Andy Murray, coming back from two sets down, but didn't have enough as Murray closed him out in the fifth. The fourth set in particular had some of the best points of the day and that means that they were simply fabulous. But, credit to Murray, he held his nerve and picked up his game to dominate the final set.

    In the other quarter final Tomas Berdych survived a first set tie-break and then went on to cruise past Lucas Pouille in three sets. That sets up a Murray-Berdych semifinal.

    It was a great day to have center court tickets as both matches on that court went five sets and included comebacks from being down two sets. Tsonga couldn't finish but Federer did in one of the great days of tennis.
