Wimbledon 2012
Anyone watching?
Cracking game on at the moment between Nadal and some fella called Rosol, who is ranked #100 in the world.
2 sets all and Rosol is leading 4-2 in the final set - seems to be a crowd pleaser.

Yup, some amazing stuff... Almost wish I'd seen more but I was watching the football first (see football thread lol) before flicking over and noticing the smacked bottom look on Nadal's face

He has only won 18 matches on the tour  His return of serve was phenomenal though, kept his cool right to the end.
He seems like a nice fella too.
Rafa still took the time to sign autographs. What a man

Just watched a reply of the Rosol / Nadal match, and what a fantastic performance by Rosol, he thoroughly deserved that win, with one of the most powerful and emphatic displays of power tennis I have ever seen, and probably the biggest EVER shock at Wimbledon too........

Looks like Federer is struggling today now as well, and is 2 sets behind at the moment to the French player Benneteau, which I think I'm going to watch to the finish now. Surely, not another top seed going out already !!!!......

Federer now seems to be getting back into his stride, and has won the 3rd Set, but still a LONG way to go in this Match.......

Looks like the " Federer Express " is really back on track at the moment, and has now levelled the score to 2 sets all. Looking forward to this 5th set now.......

I wonder why Federer never seems to sweat or get out of breath. Maybe he is bionic

Only one winner here tonight, as Federer has changed up to a higher gear now, and is walking away with the 5th set.......

Normal service has been resumed now, and Federer goes through to the next round, which I think is brilliant for the Tournament overall...........

+1 However if he had lost it would have been equally as good IMO.
