Post Biggest Wimbledon shock of all time?
Rafael nadal has been knocked out in the second round of Wimbledon in five sets by world no.100, Lukas rosol, who is playing in his first Wimbledon, having been knocked out in the first round of qualifying 5 times before. Any thoughts?

I dont agree. I think the biggest shock of all time in Tennis history has to be that time when Andy Murray smiled. I think he might have had wind though, so I'm not sure if that really counts?

It's a nice thought, but I'm sure he'll still find a way to lose it. Even with Nadal out, his side of the draw is still pretty tough, with possibly Cilic in the last 16, Del Potro in the last 8 and maybe Tsonga in the last 4.
