I'm so excited it's Wimbledon season :) and already my favorite male player has won a match! Roger Federer, from Sweden, is the number one seeded male player in the world. And despite he lose in the finals to Nadal at the French Open, I'm sure he can pull through on this one! Oh and he is sooo hott esp. when he plays, hehe.

Anyway, here is some random fact about Wimbledon:
1877 was the year of the first Wimbledon championships.
Wimbledon was not played during each of the World Wars.
Though it is held in England, the last Britain to win the men's was Fred Perry in 1936.
The last British women's singles win was Virginia Wade in 1977.
Roger Federer won last year and the year before. Could this be his third year in a row?

Well, that's about it for now. I'll talk to you all soon!
