Trending at Wimbledon: Winners
At 36, Roger Federer is the oldest player at Wimbledon. He is also favored to win. Highly regarded as the greatest tennis player of all time with 18 Grand Slam singles titles, holding the #1 spot in the ATP rankings for almost 6 years. If he wins, it will be his 8th Wimbledon title.

And with Serena Williams on the sidelines expecting her first child, consensus is, it is an open playing field regarding the next female singles champion. Venus Williams is the only player who has previously won at Wimbledon, giving her a slight edge. Otherwise, Johanna Konta is a favorite of the bookmakers, but heading into the semi-finals is new territory for her.
