Tiger Tim's dream is over
Thursday, 23 June 2005 17:16Tim Henman today crashed out of Wimbledon in the second round at the hands of Russian Dmitry Tursunov.
Henman, who recovered from two sets to love down in his opening match, squandered a 2-1 advantage on Centre Court to lose 6-3 2-6 6-3 3-6 6-8.
It was the British number one's earliest exit from the All England Club in a decade, matching his second round defeat in 1995.
The sixth seed saved two match points when Tursunov first served for the match at 5-4 in the decider, but quickly lost his serve again and the world number 152 made no mistake the second time.
