Federer reaches 7th straight Wimbledon final

WIMBLEDON, England — Roger Federer has reached his seventh straight Wimbledon final Friday by beating Tommy Haas of Germany 7-6 (3), 7-5, 6-3.

Federer won five consecutive titles at the All England Club before losing to Rafael Nadal in last year’s final. At this year’s tournament, the second-seeded Swiss is trying to win his record 15th Grand Slam title.

Federer played excellent tennis Friday, holding serve easily and breaking Haas late in the second and third sets. He will next face either Andy Murray or Andy Roddick in Sunday’s final.
