Abstract:
The Fermilab Tevatron is currently the accelerator with the highest energy reach. Since a year a new phase in its operation has started based on major upgrades of both the accelerator complex and the CDF and D0 detectors. The status of data taking will be reviewed and the prospects for physics results before LHC take-off will be summarised. Particular emphasis is given to the hopes for discovering the Higgs boson.
