The men’s finals for Wimbledon are now set, as Andy Murray and Milos Raonic will face off for the title following their semifinal victories on Friday. Murray, the No. 2 seed in the tournament, absolutely dominated No. 10 Tomas Berdych, winning in straight sets and looking as confident as ever, 6-3, 6-3, 6-3.
2016 Wimbledon results and scores: Andy Murray to meet Milos Raonic in finals
Murray took down Tomas Berdych while Raonic made it past Roger Federer in the semifinals.


Murray is the favorite to win it all, and was the favorite in a Grand Slam for the first time when Novak Djokovic found himself eliminated in the third round. Murray has often been second to Djokovic, Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal over the years, but playing in his third major final of 2016, Murray is the favorite.
His opponent will be Raonic, who made it past Federer in the semifinals on Friday. It was a hard-fought match, with the Canadian needing all five sets to take down Federer, 6-3, 6-7(3), 4-6, 7-5, 6-3. Federer was going for his 18th Grand Slam singles title, which would give him more than any other man in history.
But he hasn’t been able to get No. 18. Federer hasn’t won a Grand Slam since 2012, though he continues to get close. On Friday, Raonic was better, though just barely. Federer just played a five-set match in the previous round, and though he claimed it was good for him to do so, it clearly tired him out.
Raonic will be playing in his first-ever Grand Slam final. He previously made the semifinals of the Australian Open earlier in the year, the quarterfinals of the French Open in 2014 and has never made it past the fourth round of the US Open. There’s a lot of pressure on him, the No. 6 seed for the tournament.
Raonic and Murray have met nine times in the past, with Murray taking six of those meetings. Raonic last won back in 2014, with Murray taking each of the last five meetings between the two. That includes a win on the grass courts of London earlier this year. The men’s finals are set for Sunday.
