What an incredible day to be at Wimbledon!
Roger Federer versus Andy Roddick. Roger hoping to win his FIFTEENTH Grand Slam!
In the crowd watching we have past great champions Martina Navratilova, Rod Laver and Bjorn Borg. The fabulous Ilie Nastase is here. The lovely John McEnroe and Boris Becker are here as usual. One of my favourite actors, Russell Crowe, is here.
Pete Sampras has done a wonderful thing by coming here after an absence of seven years. He will either witness his US compatriot, Andy, win his first Wimbledon or Roger winning his sixth Wimbledon and thereby beating Pete's own record of 14 Grand Slam titles.
It's a beautiful warm day, with a lovely breeze. The strawberries are luscious and the cream... um, creamy. Now if only Gale Harold loved tennis enough to be here...
ETA: The gorgeous Michael Ballack is here too!
ETA2: Wow, 9 games all in the final set...
ETA3: Um, 12 games all in the final set...
ETA4: Final Result - (highlight if you want to know)Roger Federer wins 5-7 7-6 7-6 3-6 16-14. His Sixth Wimbledon Championship win and his Fifteenth Grand Slam title! Poor Andy Roddick runner-up for the third time.
