Wow! another great season for me. . . . . . . . . my girls are on today!!!! i hope Fedex will have early injury and Henin will retire today ; |
Re: US Open 2007: The Final Grand Slam by RuuDie(m): 2:24pm On Aug 27, 2007 |
The top-half of women's draw is frightening. . . . top-seeds go head to head far earlier than they would w'anna. Maria's luckier, she seems to be in a far easier pool - at least on paper! Sharapova 4 finals. . . . any bets against that ? I stick my neck, it's either Maria or Justine! |
Re: US Open 2007: The Final Grand Slam by dinozzo(m): 4:16pm On Aug 27, 2007 |
PDF update on whats going on , thanks in advance. |
Re: US Open 2007: The Final Grand Slam by doyin13(m): 4:16pm On Aug 27, 2007 |
I will stick my neck out and say Vaidisova or Kutznetsova from the bottom half. If Sharapove meets Vaidisova in the battle of the leggy blondes I reckon Vaidisova. Perhaps I am just biased I no like Sharapova. (Grunting should be restricted to you know what ) |
Re: US Open 2007: The Final Grand Slam by dinozzo(m): 4:17pm On Aug 27, 2007 |
any of the matches started yet? |
Re: US Open 2007: The Final Grand Slam by PDF: 5:18pm On Aug 27, 2007 |
Some matches are in progress. Baghdatis, Ferrero, Andreev, Davydenko are all playing at the moment. Jankovic, Safina, Likhovtseva are also cruising. Sugiyama is through to the second round. |
Re: US Open 2007: The Final Grand Slam by dinozzo(m): 5:29pm On Aug 27, 2007 |
just went through the us open website and Baghdatis lost the first set in his match. |
Re: US Open 2007: The Final Grand Slam by dinozzo(m): 5:31pm On Aug 27, 2007 |
its got worse for him, the other dude has won the second set 7-5 . |
Re: US Open 2007: The Final Grand Slam by dinozzo(m): 5:33pm On Aug 27, 2007 |
Juan Carlos Ferrero is also down 2 sets in his first round match against fellow spainard Feliciano Lopez. |
Re: US Open 2007: The Final Grand Slam by PDF: 5:56pm On Aug 27, 2007 |
Davydenko has progressed into the second round. The russians are having a nice time in NY. The first seeded casualty emerges; Juan Carlos Ferrero falls in straight sets. Baghdatis is a break up in the third set, can he turn it around? |
Re: US Open 2007: The Final Grand Slam by PDF: 6:22pm On Aug 27, 2007 |
Two more russians progress to the next round - Zvonareva, Andreev. Baghdatis has taken the third set. He needs to win the remaning two sets though to move to the next round. At Arthur Ashe is Henin taking on Goerges; she leads 3 - love first set. |
Re: US Open 2007: The Final Grand Slam by dinozzo(m): 6:26pm On Aug 27, 2007 |
Baghdatis always like it the hard way. |
Re: US Open 2007: The Final Grand Slam by dinozzo(m): 6:32pm On Aug 27, 2007 |
Justin leads five to love in the first set of her match against Julia Goerges. Seems she would win this one easily. Baghdatis levelled at 2-2 in the fourth set. |
Re: US Open 2007: The Final Grand Slam by PDF: 6:40pm On Aug 27, 2007 |
dino, what else do you expect from my sweetheart? She's taken the first set (a bagel) Should Baghdatis go through, I'm afraid Grosjean may run him over. At last, we have an american in the second round, Young beat Guccione to progress. |
Re: US Open 2007: The Final Grand Slam by dinozzo(m): 6:50pm On Aug 27, 2007 |
shes like a machine when she gets her game. Any chance Serena and Justin meeting in the quarters again? |
Re: US Open 2007: The Final Grand Slam by dinozzo(m): 6:55pm On Aug 27, 2007 |
wimbledon finalist Marion Bartoli is through to the second round beating Alexa Glatch in straight sets 6-1, 6-1. |
Re: US Open 2007: The Final Grand Slam by PDF: 7:30pm On Aug 27, 2007 |
. . . it had to happen anyways, Baghdatis has crashed out. He blew away a 5-1 lead in the tiebreaker of the fourth set, only to lose it 8-6. Henin has also progressed to the second round. The Swiss Master is on court. |

Re: US Open 2007: The Final Grand Slam by dinozzo(m): 8:08pm On Aug 27, 2007 |
Federer doesn't waste time in taking the first set 6-3. |
Re: US Open 2007: The Final Grand Slam by RuuDie(m): 10:08am On Aug 28, 2007 |
dinozzo: yep. . . . . there's chances of all the top seeds meeting even earlier than the 1/4 finals, with the exception of Maria Sharapova who is in the 2nd pool of the draws. . . . b'4 maria meets any of the other top seeds, it'd be in the finals, if she makes it! ain't she lucky ? |
Re: US Open 2007: The Final Grand Slam by RuuDie(m): 10:19am On Aug 28, 2007 |
too bad for baghie. . . . 4 one who loves cliff-hanging, nail-biting thrillers; he's g'otta knw he'll end up on the losing end of some of 'em. better luck next time mate! |
Re: US Open 2007: The Final Grand Slam by PDF: 10:43pm On Aug 28, 2007 |
The seeds are having a nice time. Djokovic, Hewitt, Williams sisters, Martina Hingis, Kuznetsova and others have all eased through to the next round. |

Hi PDF, when is Nadal playing? |
Re: US Open 2007: The Final Grand Slam by PDF: 9:26am On Aug 29, 2007 |
Roddick, Sharapova are safely through to the second round. It took Sharapova 50 minutes to thrash Vinci 6-0, 6-1 while Roddick beat Gimelstob 7-6, 6-3, 6-3. dinozzo: Nadal is playing today, just after Venus' second round match, which is scheduled for around 5pm (Naija time). Federer, Henin, Serena, Safin, Youzhny, Moya, Ivanovic, Jankovic are all in action today. |
Re: US Open 2007: The Final Grand Slam by PDF: 9:16pm On Aug 29, 2007 |
Henin, Ivanovic, Venus, Dementieva are through to the third round. Tsonga, Robredo, Youzhny, Moya, Kohlschreiber, Wawrinka, Safin, Ginepri are through to the second round. Nadal is struggling at the moment; it's Nadal - Jones 7-5, 3-6, 2-0. Henman is also looking good. He leads Tursunov 6-4, 1-2. |
Re: US Open 2007: The Final Grand Slam by dinozzo(m): 10:20pm On Aug 29, 2007 |
why is Nadal losing a set in the first round . Henman winning , I wouldn't have thought of that. |
