Wimbledon 2003 - Day 7

Fourth-seed Roger Federer of Switzerland overcame a back injury to defeat Spaniard Feliciano Lopez 7-6 (7-5), 6-4, 6-4 to reach the quarter-finals for the second time.

"It was totally blocked and, you know, I was always under a lot of pain. As the match went on, it got a little better because the body gets warmer and you get into it and you try to forget it," said Federer.
