Serene one Flying as usual. Sloan struggling

Stephens fought to win that second set

edoyad: Stephens fought to win that second set

She just got her momentum, with 3-0 in the last set, the game is as good as won already

Meanwhile, Rena is struggling with her serve, just broken by Martinez

Watching Roddick.s emergency press conference. Announces he will retire after the US Open. I will remember him for bitchy meltdowns and how he either under-performed his entire career or was overrated his entire career.

I wish him the best of luck in the future though

Neither of the two.......Andy is your classic definition of an overachiever.

Roddick squeezed and used up every single ounce of his very limited talent(ditto Hewitt). And that is to his credit.

Take away his fantastic serve and what you are left with is an above average player. And this has been shown to be the case on several occasions.

IMO the biggest accolade that can be given to him is not the Grandslam he won, rather the other finals he got into. Without a certain Federer in his way we will be talking about A multiple GrandSlam Champion. Not bad for an extremely limited player.

True....

Roger won in straight sets to set up a 3rd round meeting with Fernando Verdasco.

If there were any doubts as to whether Federer is still the best player(when in form) on tour, his recent displays have dispelled them. I fear for my boy Djoker

She beat the Ninth seed Li Na in the three sets.....What an Amazing talent
Re: Tennis US Open 2012.. by montelik(m): 7:27pm On Aug 31, 2012
Going to miss Roddick's hilarious interviews. The guy was a riot. From his anthrax barb about Djoko to Serena bench-pressing dump trucks at 10. He always has something to really LOL. grin grin

Agreed , she played a very good tournament . It is not easy to play 3 top players in 3 days .


Petra knocked out by bartoli ,vika won in straight sets, sharapoopoo fight to victory in 3 sets
Roddick , djokovic move on , hewitt bow out ..... Getting more interesting now

montelik: ^^ abeg, she just eliminated Kim for nothing.

No she didn't. Kim would may be have defeated Stosur, that would have ruined the Grand Epic Revenge of Serena.
