WIMBLEDON, England -- Novak Djokovic has been the hunter for years now, trying to chase down Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal. But he is No. 1 at last, and when he returned to Wimbledon as the new champion on Monday for his morning-after obligations with the news media, he was asked how it felt to be the rabbit, the one everyone else is chasing.

Jo-Wilfried Tsonga, the acrobatic Frenchman, made certain it stayed that way by managing what no man had against Federer in a Grand Slam tournament. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

WIMBLEDON, England -- If you walked through the gates at the All England Club on Saturday for the first time this year and passed the still-vacant Centre Court, your peripheral vision would have picked up familiar movement on another patch of green.

[ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]

And as poignant as it should seem to those who know how long Roddick has been chasing sunlight in Federer's shadow, Federer was the one who again ended up holding the trophy.
