Wimbledunblane!

The Great Scot has channeled William Wallace and defeated the enemy.

Americans can almost imagine Paul Revere riding across the hallowed lawns shouting “The British are coming.”

Andy’s charisma is a bit like Bartoli’s serve, awkward, painful, and ultimately effective.

Novak’s post-match Incredible Hulkish shirt-ripping routine will have to wait a few more fortnights before he attempts another title shot in the Big Apple.

Judy Murray and Ivan Lendl both smiled today, a feat perhaps more shocking than Andy’s win.

Lendl finally claims a piece of the Wimby trophy, although Andy almost left it on the court when he sat down and let the top fall off.

The McEnroe’s finished their commentating duties with a nod toward alcoholism. Nice touch!

Wondering if they’ll now refer to Wimbledon as Scotland Yard.

Wimbledone!
