At 33 years old, Federer should be on the decline. Every year there is a tournament or two where it seems like it could be the beginning of the end for the Swiss star, but then he keeps coming back with great showings when it matters.

Amazingly, it appears the veteran is only getting better with age.

Federer has been outstanding this tournament, winning six matches while only losing a single set to Sam Groth in the third round. That lost set was the only time in two weeks he even needed a tiebreak.

However, it likely doesn't get any better than his semifinals performance against Andy Murray. Federer earned a straight-set victory over one of the top players in the world thanks to some incredible work with the serve, winning 84 percent of first-serve points and totaling 20 aces to just one double-fault.

Even in a long career of impressive wins, Federer knew this one stood out, via Josh Meiseles of ATPWorldTour.com:

"

I served very well. I served a very high first-serve percentage plus going big. So definitely it was one of my best serving days of my career.

Today I was clearly able to play very well from the start. The beginning was always going to be an important part of the match. I had to save a break point first, then I was able to start rolling on my serve...I don't remember point by point, but it was definitely really, really solid.

"

Bjorn Borg explained just how well Federer played against Murray:

If he plays at this level again, it's hard to imagine anyone beating him. Then again, it might require a perfect performance to beat Djokovic.

The No. 1 player in the world is as consistent as you get in the sport, always in contention to win a major title. In fact, he has been far and away the best in Grand Slams over the past few years, via John Buccigross of ESPN:

This year he has been almost unstoppable with five titles and a 47-3 record going into Sunday. Even when Djokovic doesn't play well, he is so well-rounded that he usually finds a way to beat you.

He will now look to defend his Wimbledon title after defeating Federer in five sets in the final a year ago. The problem is a win will be even tougher this time around.

Federer might not have the same speed to cover the court, but he is making up for it in his experience and adjustments. He continues to be more aggressive at the net while still coming through with accurate shots from anywhere.

Add this to his career domination on grass (15 titles, including seven at Wimbledon), and the No. 2 seed has all the tools necessary to pull off the minor upset. In the 40th matchup between the two superstars, Federer should be able to narrowly avenge his loss from last season.

Prediction: Federer wins 6-4, 5-7, 7-6, 3-6, 6-4
