5-3 Falla now, surely he can't lose from here - has Federer ever exited in the first round of a Slam ever? Edit: Answer my own question, not since 2003; semi-finals in all but last month's French Open since 2004...this is just unreal.

Yeah. They said on commentary that it would be the first time since the 2003 French Open. Lost in straight sets to a fellow called Luis Horna, according to my research.

Come on now Falla. Big serving. There's one of them. Oh damn it!

Why couldn't Falla do that in the previous game? :@ Still, this tie-break should be thrilling. It's been an utterly awesome game, doubt we're going to get many better this tournament. Can't believe that the crowd are so much in favour of Federer though.

Oh, and there's the mini-break. Ferrets!
