    Roddick out too to tipsaravic.

    He worked hard, but wasn't aggressive enough. The serb is great when it is slow and close to him, but is pretty immobile.

    Surprise, surprise..

    ..see, it's all of you guys' fault for over-hyping the 2 tennis queens.. ;)
    ..actually, i nearly drove off the road today, after i heard the surprising news...Esp. with that scoreboard!!..wow!!:eek::p...I guess Ana might've gotten a bit over-excited with Sharapova's lost...then might've overlooked/underestimated her opponent??..:confused:..

    i wasnt hyping ivanovic... actually im kind of biased against her for no reason except that justine henin was my favorite player and ivanovic inherited her #1 ranking.

    ..for Zheng Jie..Hey, at least she won her match using a Yonex racket..;)
    Btw, for all you tennis gurus, is she the first ever Chinese WS player to go this far in a Wimbledon tourney??..:confused:

    Zheng Jie is actually a doubles specialist partnering Yan Zi and both have won Australian Open and Wimbledon titles in 2006.

    As far as Grand Slam is concerned, her best finish in singles is in 4th round back in Roland Garros 2004. In Wimbledon, her best results is 3rd round in 2006.
