2013 WIMBLEDON MEN'S FINAL
July 7, 2013  | By David Bianculli

ESPN, 9:00 a.m. ET

 
In yesterday’s women’s final, poor Sabine Lisinki, after playing so brilliantly, and with such heart, to reach the finals, had little left in the tank, and lost in straight sets to Marion Bartoli, coming alive only in the last few games. What that may mean for today’s men’s final is uncertain. Novak Djokovic (pictured), ranked No. 1, may be drained a bit after playing the longest men’s semifinal in Wimbledon history, and prevailing over Juan Martin del Potro in a thrilling match. Murray, trying to be the first Brit male tennis player to win Wimbledon in three-fourths of a century, will have the crowd almost completely on his side – but so did Lisinki. Either way, a final to make a point to watch. ABC repeats the match at 3 p.m. ET – but if you aren’t enjoying “breakfast at Wimbledon” by watching live, what’s the point?
