WIMBLEDON, England -- 'Where is the water that's not cold?' Martina Navratilova asked the chair umpire in somewhat strident fashion. 'Well, where is it?' The requested tepid water, she was told, was stowed behind the umpire's chair. 'It's not doing me any good over there, is it?' Navratilova snapped. Imagine if she had been losing. As it was, Navratilova was up 3-0 on Catalina Castano during a changeover and destined to win Monday's rain-interrupted first-round match, 6-0, 6-1. Navratilova, 47, hammered the 24-year-old from Colombia in a match that required only 46 minutes. Castano won all of 26 points in the entire match. Navratilova became the oldest player ever to win a singles match since the Open Era began in 1968.
