Well, that's it. Feel free to post a discussion on Wimbledon below. Anyway, it's disheartening that another slam is over - all the electricity and excitement and joy and sadness over the past two weeks are now a flash in history. It's now a two month wait for the next slam - the US Open. Feel free to start making your predictions! :). Meanwhile, if you want more on-line Wimbledon coverage from the past two weeks, why not try the official website at Wimbledon, or alternatively Tennis.Yahoo or, at Sportserver.
