Sports Thread #1 for 6/22/09: 2009 Wimbledon Update- Sharapova Crashes Out In The 2nd Round, Thanks To Dulko

From Tennis.com. hilarious headlined

Indeed so.

The Argentine Gisela Dulko looked to have given the match away, blowing a 3-0 lead in the second set after winning the first 6-2 and losing seven straight games in the process. but she held strong, getting five match points and finally converting on the fifth as Sharapova sent a ball out long.

Serena Williams has advanced in impressive fashion. And only four America men remain in the tournament, as Mardy Fish advanced to the third round today over the talented but erratic Serb Janko Tipsarevic. Speaking of talented serbs, Novak Djokovic continues to look unconvincing, but he got through in straight sets today. He'll take on Fish in the next round, and judging on form, I think Fish takes him out.

More updates to come throughout the day.
