Wimbledon 2011 Day 4 Open Thread

Fans catch the sweat band of Spanish player Rafael Nadal after he won over US player Ryan Sweeting during the men's single at the Wimbledon Tennis Championships at the All England Tennis Club, in southwest London on June 22, 2011.

After yesterday's second-round epic worthy of a final between those old ladies Venus Williams and Kimiko Date-Krumm, today will need to prove itself.
Serena Williams is already down a set on Court 2 (!) to Simona Halep because her feet are heavy as wet hay, so it could be another dramatic day for the two-time defending champion. Will the Romanian teenager be able to hold on?
I guess it's nice that they gave former champion Lleyton Hewitt a slot on Centre Court or perhaps it was a nod to Robin Soderling who's never even been to a Wimbledon semifinal?
I'm looking forward most to Li Na vs. Sabine Lisicki. The Roland Garros champion loves the grass but so does the hard-hitting German. Will Li have a letdown?
