So it's that time of the tennis season again. Wimbledon '07 is upon us. Andy Murray, British number 1 drops out the night before due to injury and British hopes of a Brit getting far in the tournament seem to be dashed. Step up; Tim Henman. The 32 year old has been in freefall over recent years, career seemed to be over and sliding down the ranks from the top 10 in the world to 78. Yet, he seemed to roll back the years and produce a fantastic win against Spaniard Carlos Moya that commanded respect. Just 2 points from going 5-2 down he pulls it back to 4-4 in the final set and eventually goes on to win 13-11. Realistically, there's not much chance of him making the semi-finals like he once did. However, who would bet against it on the back of that performance? He dug deep and showed a lot of guts and skill.

The favourite still has to be Federer, Nadal close behind him. Hopefully the rest of the matches will be of the calibre of Henman-Moya this year though. That was fantastic SMILEY
