Tipsarevic ousts Nalbandian from Wimbledon

PanARMENIAN.Net - Argentina’s David Nalbandian was on his best behavior but slipped out of Wimbledon after a first-round defeat to Janko Tipsarevic, according to dailymail.co.uk.

Nalbandian, runner-up to Lleyton Hewitt at Wimbledon in 2002, spurned five early break points and Tipsarevic took full advantage, breaking in the seventh game before winning the set.

Both players broke each other's serve in the second set, causing a tie-break, which Tipsarevic won after two mini-breaks.

Serbian Tipsarevic wasted five break points in the third set but took a sixth when crashing a backhand in to the corner after a weak serve.

Serving to stay in the match, Nalbandian buckled, placing an easy forehand wide to seal his demise.

Nalbandian graciously accepted defeat, embracing his opponent before shaking hands with the umpire.
