Unlike Women's Singles, the Men's Singles bracket features a handful of its top seeds. Here's a look at who is still alive in the quarterfinals as Wimbledon 2013 will soon have a new champion. Is your favorite player participating in this year's quarterfinals?
Women's Singles is without its No. 1 seed, Serena Williams, who was bounced from contention. However, the Men's Singles' No. 1 seed is alive and kicking. Novak Djokovic defeated Tommy Haas (13) in straight sets, advancing to the quarterfinals. He gets ready to face-off with Tomas Berdych (7). From the looks of it, Djokovic's ticket to the semis might already be booked. His career track record is 13-2 against Berdych. However, it was Berdych who won their last meeting in Rome earlier this year as Djokovic was bounced in the quarterfinals.
Andy Murray (2) had some difficulties in his fourth round match, but he successfully advanced to the quarterfinals; continuing to win without dropping a set in the tournament. It is no mystery that the crowd is rallying behind Murray. He will face the unseeded Spaniard, Fernand Verdasco, who is in the middle of his best run at Wimbledon. Verdasco will make his first appearance at a Wimbledon quarterfinal against Murray. Murray and Verdasco have gone head-to-head nine times, with the Scot holding the 8-1 edge.
David Ferrer (4) continues his great play in grand slam tournaments as he continues his search for his first grand slam title. He is making his second consecutive quarterfinal appearance at Wimbledon and seventh straight quarterfinals appearance at a grand slam. Ferrer has experienced trouble in recent matchups and will have to step up his game as his opponent is no slacker. Juan Martin del Potro (8) will play in his first Wimbledon quarterfinal and is coming off a bronze medal at the 2012 London Olympics. Ferrer owns the 6-2 edge in head-to-head battles against Del Potro.
The only matchup not featuring a Top 10 player in the Men's Singles quarterfinals sees Lukasz Kubot facing Jerzy Janowicz (24). This matchup will be memorable for both, not only because it will be their first head-to-head matchup, but also their first quarterfinals appearance in a grand slam. Kubot has been extremely efficient as he has yet to play in a tiebreak or drop a set at Wimbledon. Janowicz was responsible for eliminating No. 15 Nicolas Almagro, but ran into danger against Jurgen Melzer in the fourth round of the tournament.
