Stars Tweet Away as Tournament Rolls On – Straight Sets Blog – NYTimes.com

The roof is not the only technological revolution at Wimbledon this year. This is also the first Wimbledon when a lot of the players are using Twitter to communicate with their fans.

Andy Roddick, Andy Murray and Serena Williams are some of the notable names sharing their thoughts during the tournament. A sample from Roddick via Twitter on Monday night: “get to play another day … watching night tennis at wimby.. too cool.”

Roddick has over 40,000 people following him on Twitter. But looking at who he is following is also interesting. He is following 22 people, many of them tennis notables such as trainer Doug Speen, Jim Courier (who once wrote a tweet while playing a senior tournament match), Bob Bryan and Murray.
