Wimby day two.

Things get sugary at the tennis lawns in London.
Today we saw the former world number one, Jelena Jankovic, exit the most sought after slam in a most heart-shattering way. I felt her pain, man. I so felt it! The Serb chick can't seem to swing the racket right no matter how much blood and sweat she puts into her efforts these days. Well, I don't know... It's disappointing really.

Anyhow, while Miss Jankovic was wallowing in a muck of defeat, Roger Federer, Maria Sharapova, Lleyton Hewitt and Novak Djokovic celebrated their effortless wins.

It was a great day hampered with great matches. But the most exclusive moment came when Serena Williams, against all odds, surprised both herself and earth with an incredible win after dropping a set in her opening match. Centre court was in raptures. The defending champion was in tears, and I'm sure everyone who watched her hit her final ace cried with her. After everything Serena has been through the past year, after surviving blood clots in her lungs, the universe had doubts about her coming back to the courts. But just like a fighter she is, she fought hard and beat the odds to come back.
I hope she so wins it!!!
