Title: Precision Electroweak and Top Quark Measurements at the Energy Frontier

Abstract: The W and Z bosons, the top quark, and the yet-to-be-discovered Higgs boson are the most massive particles in the Standard Model. W and Z boson measurements are significant probes of the Standard Model and the prediction of the Higgs boson mass hinges on the precise measurements of the W boson and top quark masses. I will review the status of a few electroweak and top quark measurements from the CDF collaboration from the ongoing Run II of the Tevatron at Fermilab.
