Roger Federer plays incredible trick-shot against Sam Querrey at
“If I lose 6-1, 6-2, 6-3, everyone says ‘Bravo, Rafa, ‘” Brown said. He capped off the third set with three brilliant winners.

Two down, five to go. His average serve speed was 122 miles per hour; but his service action is so quick (he goes from toss to contact in the blink of an eye), it seems to catch even the most alert receiver off guard.
Indeed it was Federer’s serve, the bedrock of his all-court game, that came under immediate pressure, a break point and two deuces, as Querrey swung his forehand with abandon.
Poor Sam Querrey may have actually thought he had Federer on the ropes during this exchange.
Bethanie Mattek-Sands eliminated seventh-seeded Ana Ivanovic in the second round at Wimbledon.
Roger Federer showcased his incomparable grass court skills on Thursday in a serene straight-sets win over Sam Querrey at Wimbledon.
The previous record was 34.6 C (94.28 F) in the summer of 1976.
“I started the match off very well”.
Wimbledon referee Andrew Jarrett said on Tuesday the WTA heat rule had been implemented twice before at SW19, in 2006 and 2009.

Nadal’s serve consistently let him down even though he put in an excellent 72 percent of first serves into play, but give Brown’s slap-shot return some credit for that, as well.
“Against him, you have to go out with a different mindset and different belief”, Tomic said.
“I am a good loser but I will keep going”. It’s a tough one.
The seven-time champion marched into Round 3 after beating the American 6-4, 6-2, 6-2, enchanting the Centre Court with his sophisticated but devastatingly effective skill set.
Murray, who became the first homegrown men’s champion in 77 years when he won Wimbledon in 2013, is setting himself up for another serious title run this year. Kivitova has dropped just three games in two matches so far.
It’s the fourth year in a row that Nadal leaves the All England Club early.
While the significance of taking on arguably the greatest player of all time at the most prestigious tennis tournament in the world hasn’t been lost on 27-year-old Groth, he believes he has identified the areas where he can expose the Swiss legend. Indeed, the American played some excellent tennis in the opening exchanges, but for all his brute power and thunderous ground strokes, the eminent class of Federer had ground him down.
Two-time champion Rafael Nadal will not have fond memories of the only other time he met his second-round opponent, 102nd-ranked qualifier Dustin Brown of Germany.

In most matches, a player who notched up 24 winners to 15 errors might expect, at the very least, to come close to winning. The temperature is expected to settle in the low 30’s (°C).
