Bravo Jo-Wilfried Tsonga for the Win over Federer!
Tsonga is one of the most talented up-and-coming players in the men's tour but has languished in the fringes of the Top 20 for the past few years after making that fantastic run to the finals of the Australian Open a few years back.
Finally he's back again today and delivered a win from behind against Roger Federer - and this is on grass! I was watching the match while doing other stuff and I realized by the third set that something special was happening. All of Tsonga's returns were in! I thought, well, maybe for the third set. Yet, he sustained it in the fourth set - and in the fifth set, he won his final game against Federer's serve! Incredible!
Well, he's off to his first Wimbledon semi-final, so we wish him luck!
