BREAKING NEWS: Wimbledon. Federer crashes out . Joins Nadal, Sharapova and Tsonga

Roger Federer's dream of winning a record eighth Wimbledon title this fortnight was shattered tonight as the defending champion lost to world number 116 Sergiy Stakhovsky on Centre Court.
Having seen Rafael Nadal bow out of the tournament, Federer seemed to have an easy route to the semi-finals, but Ukrainian Stakhovsky stunned the Swiss with a 6-7 (5/7) 7-6 (7/5) 7-5 7-6 (7/5) win in the second round today.

Federer's earliest exit at Wimbledon for 11 years comes as a huge boost for Britain's Andy Murray, who earlier saw his potential quarter-final opponent Jo-Wilfried Tsonga pull out through injury.

I doubt if he will ever win another grand slam.
