Wimbledon: The boys are back on grass...and Andy Roddick is on his back!

Ah, Wimbledon. I love Wimbledon. Of the three grand slam tournaments I've been to, my week spent watching matches played on the grass courts of the All England Club ranks at the top of my tennis memories - and my life memories. But enough about me!
Andy Roddick sure looks cute even when he slips and falls as he did earlier today in his first-round match. But the fourth-seeded American, my pick to win, managed to pick himself up, dust himself off, and go on to win the match in straight sets. Also back in action and looking so comfortable and elegant on the grass was four-time defending champion Roger Federer who Roddick will likely have to take out in the semifinals if my out-on-a-limb prediction is to come true. Federer easily advanced to the second round at the tournament where he has not lost a match since 2002...
