Unheralded Aussie in Wimbledon final
July 2, 2005
LITTLE-known Australian Stephen Huss is through to the Wimbledon doubles final after teaming with South African Wes Moodie to stun top seeds Jonas Bjorkman and Max Mirnyi.
Huss and Moodie are the first qualifiers to reach a doubles final at the All England Club after their remarkable 2-6 6-2 6-4 7-6 (7-4) semi-final win.
They will play American twin brothers Mike and Bon Bryan, the tournament's second seeds, in the final tonight at 9pm (AEST).
Australians in action on day 12 at Wimbledon:
Men's doubles final
Stephen Huss/Wes Moodie (RSA) v 2-Bob Bryan (USA)/Mike Bryan (USA)
Women's doubles semi-final
11-Samantha Stosur/Bryanne Stewart v 2-Cara Black (ZIM)/Liezel Huber (RSA) Mixed doubles quarter-final
6-Todd Woodbridge*/Samantha Stosur v 3-Jonas Bjorkman (SWE)/Lisa Raymond (USA)
Obviously, this is the reason ppl are conspiring to change the rules.
Nice little story about Huss: He exaggerated his way into a US college program, left with a singles ranking in the 800s, played Challengers in the remotest parts of the earth, without ever getting anywhere much, covers expenses, has a 22 yr old car named "Graham", and wouldn't do anything else!
*now very sorry he didn't choose Huss
