Roddick out of Wimbledon after 2nd round, loses to unseeded Serb Janko Tipsarevic
Edited on Thu Jun-26-08 03:02 PM by emad
Two-time Wimbledon finalist Andy Roddick became the latest high-profile casualty when was sent crashing by the unseeded Serb Janko Tipsarevic.

Roddick looked lost for ideas against a player who has never been past round four at the All England Club, going down 7-6 (7-5) 5-7 4-6 6-7 (4-7).

1. The commentators said Tipsarevic reads a lot of philosophy
So it will make him a better person. He certainly outplayed Roddick today, I thought.

3. It's not too late to amend your headline
to include the word S P O I L E R S

There might be people who are recording the match and would rather not know the outcome as they watch it.

6. "Roddick looked lost"
That's an apt description of him every fucking day. He looks like a particularly stupid collie. Besides that, his game relies on the only two things he does well--a serve and a forehand--that if one of them fails him, he's cooked. God knows he can't out-think an opponent.



Which is Roddick and which is the collie? Here's a hint: the collie looks smarter.
