Wimbledon Starts as Federer Survives Scare:

The Championships at Wimbledon started and six time champ
Roger Federer had a quality first round match, if extremely unexpected.
Federer surrendered the first two sets before winning then next three sets
over Alejandro Falla 5-7, 4-6, 6-4, 7-6 (1), 6-0. It was a scare for Federer.
He hasn't shown much weakness in his dominant performances at his favorite
tournament. The 2008 Final between Federer and Rafael Nadal might have been
the greatest tennis match in the last decade.
Third seeded Novak Djokovic had to beat German Oliver Rocus in five sets
too. It would've been a disappointing tournament if two of the top
contenders went out in the first day. They didn't which makes for a great
semifinal possibility. Djokovic seems poised to step up to Federer and
Nadal's level and this would be the right place to do it. He's a heavy
hitter that moves well on the court. He just needs to not wither against
Nadal and Federer on the biggest stage.
Maybe Americans James Blake and Andy Roddick will go deep in the tournament,
but it's really about Federer adding to his tremendous amount of major
championships. He might be the greatest tennis player ever. Nadal should be
ready after fighting nagging injuries this year. Look on the women's side
for an American champion. Venus and Serena Williams look in top form. French
open champion Francesca Shiavone was ousted in her opening round match. The
women's tournament is a little more wide open, filled with past champions
that can win it all. Expect a Williams to be in the finals though, they're
that good.
