Wimbledon is entering its business end, with the eight remaining players in the men's draw set to take the court on Wednesday to secure a spot in the final four. But how has each of the quarterfinalists fared thus far?

While Novak Djokovic has lived up to his billing as the overwhelming favorite to win the title, Roger Federer has gotten better with every passing round.
