"I hope to get more chances to play him on hard courts," said Federer of Nadal in his French postmatch interview. "He has had a lot of chances to play me on clay and that's helped him on other surfaces and that's helped his confidence going into Wimbledon. But he has progressed a lot on hard courts. We saw that at the Olympics. That's why I was mad he wasn't the favorite [here]."

This is exactl what he said, check the order: Murray "has never won a Slam. Novak is the defending champion here. Rafa [Nadal] had an incredible season last year," said Federer, who is bidding to equal Pete Sampras' record of 14 Grand Slam singles titles. "I won the last Slam of last season. It's surprising to hear."
