LONDON, July 8 (Reuters) - The Wimbledon men's singles final resumed on Sunday under the Centre Court roof after a 40-minute rain delay with Roger Federer and Andy Murray level at 4-6 7-5 1-1.

Third seed Federer, seeking his seventh Wimbledon title, was 40-0 up on his serve when the umpire called the players off.

Organisers decided to shut the roof as the heavy shower persisted. (Editing by Ed Osmond)
