Wild at Wimbledon

Watching this Rafael Nadal match right now, I'm not sure he's got what it takes to win this thing.  And by this thing, I mean Wimbledon.  Lukas Rosol, the Czechoslovakian ranked #100 in the world, is giving Nadal all he can handle.  7-6 Nadal in the first set, 6-4 Rosol in the second set.

Nadal struggled in the first set in his first round straight set win over Brazilian Thomaz Bellucci, #80 in the world, but I think he turned it on after thinking he could coast through the match.

German Philipp Kohlschreiber, #27 in the world, waits for the winner of this Nadal-Rosol match, and he'll be rested after a straight set win today.

Not to say I am not a Nadal fan, but he needs to step it up.

Rosol leads 2-1 in the third set and Rosol is just slamming aces down his throat.  Three in a row in fact to take a 3-1 lead.

Rosol-mania!
