Suddenly the Grass Is Greener: Rafael Nadal took yet another bite into Roger Federer's reign of supremacy by winning his first grass-court event yesterday in England. Not only did he become the first Spanish man to win on the turf in ages, he did so in convincing fashion beating Andy Roddick and Novak Djokovic in straight sets. Not to be outdone, though, Federer won the grass-court event in Germany in straight sets too, beating Philipp Kohlschreiber. (Who?) (AP)

Nadal is not the first Spaniard to win on grass. As the article you link to states in the second paragraph, he is the first male since Andres Gimeno in 1972. Manolo Santana also won Wimbledon in 1966 and Conchita Martinez won the ladies title in 1994.
It's after 2 a.m. and I just got back from attending my friend Larry's funeral in Fort Lauderdale. I hope to resume regular blogging...
