Roddick upset in 2nd round at Wimbledon

From the Associated Press:

WIMBLEDON, England -- Sixth-seeded Andy Roddick has been
upset in the second round at Wimbledon, losing to Janko Tipsarevic
of Serbia.

Roddick, who lost the 2004 and 2005 Wimbledon finals to Roger
Federer, was beaten 6-7 (5), 7-5, 6-4, 7-6 (4) by 40th-ranked
Tipsarevic, who has never gone past the fourth round at a major.

Roddick reached the semifinals at the grass-court tuneup event
at Queen's, coming back from a shoulder injury that forced him out
of the French Open.

He had three set points in the fourth to pull even and eight
breakpoint chances overall, but Tipsarevic saved them all.
