Anyone watching the re-match of the longest match in history today? Relive the (lengthy ;D) memories here: http://sports.espn.go.com/sports/tennis/wimbledon11/columns/story?columnist=garber_greg&id=6660832

Yes! Nando wins! He won his first ever comeback from 2 sets down match last U.S Open and since then he's had another at the Australian and now at Wimbledon.

Tommy: He's got a line about me. Tell him the line.

Mike: Everybody 60 or over knows Tommy as a player. Everybody 40 or over knows Tommy as a coach. Everybody 20 or over knows Tommy as a broadcaster. And everybody 10 or under thinks he's Shrek.

Well the Isner/Mahut rematch was a dud. Guess you can't catch lightening twice in a bottle huh slightly shady Wimbledon draw makers? This Lopez/Roddick match could be could rival their original match if Roddick can somehow manage to dig out of the immense hole he's in now. Breaks of serve are so rare in their matches.

So many promising matches today. I hope the weather doesn't ruin it.

Wow... Quite the collapse by Federer.  Up 2 sets and he loses.

If there was any Slam where Roger could still bring it and win it all, you'd have to think Wimbledon would've been it.

That ROYALLY sucked. 2 QF exits in a row at Wimbledon. So his worst slam performances this past couple of years have come on grass. I feel so bad for him. First ever 2 set lead loss. Guess it's up to Rafa to hold down the fort now. Hope he can win his match in 3 and rest that foot.

I hope Kvitova blows Sharapova off the court on Saturday. It's petty but every win she has irritates me because I have to see Vujacic's annoying face celebrating.

Don't remind me! Lol
I'm a HUGE Federer fan. I'm just...crestfallen
I'm rooting for Tsonga to win it all now. He's gonna win alot of titles IMO
