Roger Federer just made it to the semi-finals of Wimbledon in spectacular fashion.
The No. 3 player in the world clawed his way back from being two sets down against Croatian player Marin Cilcic, to winning in five sets.
"He continues to add chapters to his legacy"

Naturally enough, Twitter can't cope.
Roger Federer should be your midweek inspo
Wednesday slump? What Wednesday slump?!
If Federer can come back from being two sets down to win in five, god DAMN IT you can get through his week.

Is Federer incapable of sweating?
Our own Philip Egan is calling for a thorough investigation.
Can someone please explain to me how Roger Federer doesn't break a sweat in an epic five set match on a hot day at Wimbledon

Next role for Roger - Easter bunny?
As far as religious tennis experiences go, that was much like Easter. #Federer

How many grand slams have you won Sorabh?
Me: "Federer is getting old."
Dad: "He's 34. Your age."
M: "He's 1 month 6 days older than me."
D: "You have 36 days to win 17 grand slams."— Sorabh Pant (@hankypanty) July 6, 2016
Meanwhile, the Royal Box attendees continue to make a stir
Sorry but Bear Grylls is in the Royal Box at Wimbledon? Could someone send me a copy of the criteria please.

Drink your own p*ss Al. Then we'll talk.
Bear Grylls spotted at Wimbledon. I bet he'll be disappointed that there's champagne, but no piss.
