Federer 1/3 to win Sunday's final after straight sets win

Roger Federer remains on course for a sixth Wimbledon title and record 15th Grand Slam title after beating Tommy Haas in Friday's semi-final.

The world number two reached Sunday's final in straight sets, winning 7-6 (7-3) 7-5 6-3.

He will meet Andy Murray or Andy Roddick in Sunday's final and goes into the game having dropped just one set so far throughout the course of the tournament.

Sunday will see the 27-year-old make his seventh consecutive Wimbledon final appearance.

Federer was cut to a best priced 1/3 (Stan James) shortly after his win over Haas.

"I've had a lot of pressure over the years so it's just another great opportunity for me to get into the history books," said Federer shortly after reaching the final.

"It's not the only reason I play tennis - mostly it's because I love it and enjoy playing tennis but going for something that big (the 15th Grand Slam title) this coming Sunday is quite extraordinary."
