The first major Super star casualty in the men's Wimbledon Tennis Finals was recorded yesterday, Thursday June 28, 2011 when the ''Mohammed Ali look-alike'' called Jo-Wilfried Tsonga (ranked 19 in the world) defeated stunned the ace veteran Roger Federer (ranked No 3 in the world).

The 26 yr old Jo-Wilfried Tsonga, starting slowly like someone waking up from sleep, lost the first 2 set 3 - 6, 6 - 7. By now, Jo had fully woken up and he won the next 3 sets swifly and decisively - 6 -4, 6 - 4 & 6 - 4. The whole 5 - set match lasting just 3hrs 8 mins! It would be recalled that Roger Federer just last month lost at Roland Garros final to the great Rafael Nadar.

With this latest defeat, it may well be the end of an illustrious tennis era for the 29 yr old Roger Federer, a 6 - time Wimbledon Champion and who had formerly being No 1 in the world for 237 consecutive weeks until Rafael Nadar overthrew him.

In a professional career spanning just 13 yrs, Roger Federer has earned a total career prize money of over $60m.
