I think these sort of queries are solved.. if you know the categories of sites that index information and are able to scroll and process text, images and information quickly.

My first query string idea was 'men semifinals Wimbeldon 2015 wiki' and the resulting page contains the list in a nice format.

This is because I have the context that wiki pages would contain this sort of information. Google and others are getting better at processing more vague queries (like 'three years ago'), but I do agree we are nowhere close to being able to ask general questions. Knowing how to use the tools like google search (and other searches) and really advanced queries syntax is a force multiplier/enabler.

That's a job for computers to do.
