Nadal´s earliest Grand Slam exit since 2005

Rosol shocks No. 2 Nadal at Wimbledon - Tennis- NBC Sports

After falling behind in the third set, Nadal grumbled to the chair umpire during a changeover, apparently irritated by Rosol's movements as he awaited serves.

"I was concentrating on myself," Rosol said. "I don't know what he was complaining about."

Two games later, Nadal bumped into Rosol - and didn't acknowledge the contact - as they walked to their chairs for a break.

Nadal himself not being so innocent. Remember?

Love to see that the game is not anymore so much dominated by one person only!

 

Good to see Rafa back and winning after months out with injury.

Not me really Lesley, but I saw Murray won and is back at worlds number 2 - He's done alright for a Brit

 

No not bad eh Jules?
Well done Andy-let's hope he can win another Grand Slam this year

After beating Federer in the Olympics Murray turned into a super-pro and started believing in himself 120%. Great change!!

I am proud of our Jarkko Nieminen. he´s been about 15 years in the ATP-tennis top 50 ranking, and still makes some excellent games. In Monte Carlo even if Jarkko lost to Djokovic clearly he broke Novak´s serve three times. And won Del Potro to face Djokovic. Great going Jarkko!!

 

Rafa Nadal wins the US Open final, beating Novak Djokovic. Seems to be winning nearly everything since coming back from injury.
Well done Rafa

I liked the Djokovic vs Wawrinka match alot. I think the crowd also favoured Wawrinka. Great match.

A brilliant match peaked with an incredible 21-minute game at 1-1 in the decider, which saw Wawrkina fight off five break points and both men pause at one point to take the rapturous applause of 23,000 spectators on Arthur Ashe Stadium.
