LONDON, June 28 (Reuters) - Taiwan’s Lu Yen-hsun sprang the biggest shock of
the tournament on Monday when he stunned last year’s runner-up and fifth seed
Andy Roddick 4-6 7-6 7-6 6-7 9-7 in the fourth round at Wimbledon on Monday.
Roddick, who lost last year’s final in an epic last set 16-14 to Roger
Federer, looked poised for a regulation win when he took the opening set with a
single break in 39 minutes.
But Lu kept his focus and won tiebreaks 7-3 7-4 to put Roddick under pressure
and though the American took it to a decider the Taiwanese won through when he
fired a forehand winner past the three-times finalist after four hours and 36
minutes. He will play Serbian third seed Novak Djokovic for a place in the
semi-finals
