Three-time finalist Andy Roddick was stunned in the fourth round at Wimbledon on Monday by an 82nd-ranked Taiwanese player who hadn't won a match here the past four years.
The fifth-seeded American was ousted 4-6, 7-6 (3), 7-6 (4), 6-7 (5), 9-7 by Yen-Hsun Lu in a match that lasted more than 4½ hours.
"It never gets easier," said Roddick, a three-time runner-up at Wimbledon. "Of course I'm going to be [ticked] off when I wake up tomorrow. I mean, if you got fired from your job, you probably wouldn't wake up the next day in a great mood."
Lu sealed the victory in the 16th game of the fifth set with his only service break of the match.
