Venus Shines, Roger F. makes it five straight at All England Club!

Venus Williams shocked the world at Wimbledon with four straight upsets en route to her fourth wimbledon title. Venus shined like none other on 7-7-07. On the men's side, Rafa Nadal pushed Roger Federer to five sets before surrendering the title. Twice in the fifth set, Rafa was up two break points yet it was to no avail. As for the Wimbledon tournament, the rain caused way too many delays for all players. Andy Roddick lost a grueling five setter to Richard Gasquet. The young frenchman was down two sets and 4-2 in the third, before he registered one of the biggest upsets in the men's bracket. Next up for the tennis world, it's the US Open Series. Let's see if Maria Sharapova can defend her titles in the summer plus at the US Open in Flushing Meadows.
