I am a Federer fan, but I think Federer has seemed distant since the Australian Open. As he right said, he was lucky to win today. Nadal played better. It's just that Federer won the mental game - 2 tie breaks and he picked up his game in the 5th set.
If Federer does not get his act together, I think he may never win another Wimbledon. If he does rediscover his touch, who knows how many more he'll win.

3 or 4 more. He is by no means old. If Venus Williams can still compete at Wimbledon in her late 20's,when the dominant woman are getting much younger, I know Federer can compete for sometime to come. Andre Agassi, won 5 majors,after his 29th birthday,including 2 after turning 30. He also reached 3 more major finals during that time period including the 2005 U.S open at the age of 35. If he stays healthy he could be around for another decade or so. I would expect a Nadal to crash out long before Federer. I fully expect his best tennis in the next 3 to 4 years.

Hmm..1 maybe but Nadal is getting better so i think it will be close also, watch out for Novak Djokovic of Serbia because he's also a good grass court player, i thought it was a very close match today and i think that ewither of them could have won it but i'm in a way glad Federer did win it again. I think he could win once more at Wimbledon maybe but, no more than once more i don't think, personally. I think he's starting to lose pace and consistency in his play.

2-3 at the most i think...fedex has been quite sloppish especially at this wimbledon...its either that or nadal has really really increased his game...
i have never seen nadal play this well on grass so far...however fedex did just prove how much of a champion he was in beating nadal in a gruelling 5 setter (which fedex has never been known to do well at)...nadal was as fit as he could be...
the match between was simply a classic...one of the best matches i must say...simply awesome...shot making...the intensity of both players...the amount of energy...the angles...
even after the match fedex had acknowledge...that rafa deserved this (title) but he was the lucky one today...i got no words to desrcibe the match yesterday....its like 2 giants squaring off one with power the other with strategy...
well i would love to see fedex to go on a beat sampras 7 wimbledon titles next...

He can win as many more as he wants. I believe that he will continue to dominate until he gets injured or he retires. He is so awesome. He will win forever and be one of the greatest in the game. He will at least defeat Pete Sampras' record of 14 grand slams.

2 more. I think he'll win two more. Rafa Nadal is catching up to him enough (as are some youngsters like Novak Djokovich), and he's already 25. If you give him the next 4 years, and assume he'll lose half the time to guys like Nadal and Djokovich, he gets two more.
