Best quotes and fact from the 10th day at Wimbledon

A SELECTION of some of the best quotes and facts from the 10th day at Wimbledon:

Quotes


Novak Djokovic on the Big Three reaching the semi-finals yet again:

"This is where, especially (Rafa) Nadal, (Roger) Federer, and myself... we go on to the next level in terms of tennis and focus.

"We're very dedicated to these tournaments. At this stage of all of our careers, this is what matters the most for us."

Federer ahead of a semi-final clash with Nadal:

"It's impressive to see how sort of healthy (Rafa Nadal) has stayed. A lot of them are saying, 'Oh, it's the end,' by 2008. Similar to me in 2009.

"We're still here."

Nadal on how he and Federer have adapted over the years:

"Probably the only reason why we're able to be where we are is because we love the game and we have big respect for this sport.

"I don't think we improved much. I think we managed to add things because we lose things on the other hand, no? We need to add new things because of the age."

Fact

Federer won his 100th match at the Wimbledon championships when he beat Kei Nishikori 4-6 6-1 6-4 6-4 to become the only man with a century of singles victories at a Grand Slam.

Hideo Kojima reveals Death Stranding 2 trailer and release date, packed with metal gear references

Hideo Kojima is back in the spotlight, and he’s bringing some familiar vibes with him. At SXSW 2025 in Austin, Texas, Kojima presented a brand-new look at Death Stranding 2: On the Beach. The nearly 10-minute trailer gave fans plenty to chew on: gameplay reveals, creepy visuals, and a release date, June 26, 2025, exclusive to PlayStation 5. Players who go for the Digital Deluxe or Collector’s Editions can dive in early on June 24. Pre-orders kick off March 17.

The trailer introduces a fresh face: Neil, portrayed by Italian actor Luca Marinelli. Fans immediately noticed his striking resemblance to Solid Snake from Kojima’s Metal Gear series. Neil throws on a bandana and commands a shadowy squad, making the connection even clearer. Kojima actually predicted this comparison back in 2020, when he said Marinelli would be the “spitting image” of Snake if he wore a bandana. Now, that prediction seems to have come full circle.
