Roger Federer was upset today at Wimbledon by Frenchmen Jo-Wilifried Tsonga. In a dramatic 5 set match, Federer jumped ahead 2 sets to none before having his game fall apart and allowing Tsonga to take all three of the remaining sets 6-4.
It seems an improbable end to Federer's run through Wimbledon this year, after showing some great form for the past few months. It was also the first time in a Grand Slam tournament that he lost the match after going up 2 sets to none (career 178-0).
Novak Djokovich was able to overcome a first set loss to Bernard Tomic before he rallied for 3 straight set victories.
Andy Murray easily defeated his opponent, unseeded Felicano Lopez in 3 straight sets.
Rafael Nadal was in fine form today and was able to defeat Mardy Fish 6-3, 6-3, 5-7, 6-4. Nadal was never in really any trouble today, and is playing far better in this Wimbledon than he did at the French Open.
