Reuters - July 7, 2008, 3:13 am

LONDON, July 6 (Reuters) - Play resumed in the men's final between world number one Roger Federer and Spain's Rafael Nadal following a 81-minute rain disruption on Sunday.

Nadal was leading five-times champion Federer 6-4 6-4 4-5 when showers forced the players off court at 1551 GMT.

Rain had also delayed the start of the match by 30 minutes.

Federer is seeking a modern-era record sixth successive title while four-times French Open champion Nadal is targeting his first.
