Rafael Nadal Out in Second Round at Wimbledon

Rafael Nadal had no answers for the powerful game of Lukas Rosol

The tennis world was shocked yesterday by what was possibly the greatest upset in the history of The Championships.  Lukas Rosol defeated Rafael Nadal in five sets.  6-7(9-11), 6-4, 6-4, 2-6, 6-4.

This says less about Rafa than it does about the near-impossible task of winning both Roland Garros and Wimbledon in the same year.  In fact, only Nadal, Federer and Bjorg have done it. 

Nadal will return to the All-England club later this summer for the London Olympic games.
