Federer reaches quarterfinals at Wimbledon
Associated Press , Wimbledon, England | Mon, 06/29/2009 9:55 PM | Sports
Roger Federer found himself in a serving contest Monday at Wimbledon - and won.
The five-time champion hit 23 aces, never lost his serve and advanced to the quarterfinals by beating familiar foe Robin Soderling 6-4, 7-6 (5), 7-6 (5).
Federer improved to 11-0 against Soderling, including a victory in the French Open final to complete a career Grand Slam three weeks ago.
This time the No. 2-seeded Federer came through on a handful of key points. He earned the only service break of the match in the ninth game of the opening set, when Soderling committed five unforced errors to fall behind for good, 5-4.
With all 16 fourth-round matches scheduled on a hot, hazy day, the Williams sisters remained on course to play an all-family final for the second year in a row.
Five-time champion Venus led 6-1, 0-1 when Ana Ivanovic retired with a left thigh injury. Two-time champion Serena beat Daniela Hantuchova 6-3, 6-1. Venus beat Serena in last year's final.
