Roddick Breaks British Hearts, Can Now Derail Federer History Train
Against steep odds and the whole of the U.K., Andy Roddick played a fantastic match Friday and beat the hometown hero Andy Murray on his own turf of Wimbledon Centre Court. (Both players are on Twitter, and should be interesting to see if and what Roddick and Murray post.)
Now, on to the final. An all-American sweep is still possible. Here’s pulling for Roddick to undercut the Swiss tennis savant Roger Federer’s claim on immortality. Bring it on Sunday, Andy, bring it.

It was good that Andy Roddick won, if only b/c I was getting doused in my Andy Murray Wimbledon drinking game: drink every time a commentator referred to Murray as having the “weight of a nation on his shoulders.”

It’s wonderful to see a winner who is obviously so thankful that his hard work has paid off and that he has another chance at a Slam final. Certainly, Murray’s day will come, but I love to see Roddick win. He’s paid his dues–been in the top ten for more than ten years. Beating Federer will be a hugh challenge, but maybe his time has come. Let Federer share the wealth and the joy.
