RE: Weeks 35-36 - US Open Main Draw


Rain has stopped, looks clear for about an hour at least on the radar - next rain is currently over Princeton.

Expect the guys with white towels any time soon! 2012, and that's still their best solution.

Why don't they have hover covers or similar? That USO committee is so intransigent. Oh well, they'll have it cleared up just in time for the next set of showers.

60% chance of rain Tuesday & Wednesday, so I'm already betting on an extension to a third Monday again.

Well got there in the end. As was mentioned before, don't you just love these little blue boxes on the US Open site,  no don't change that way !!   Anyway Laura's serve held up well DF wise after 2 early DFs in the second set, well until she gave up a set point to Crawford with her 3rd, which was not great timing ! But nice from 5 - 6 * to 8 - 6 in the tiebreak. Lovely blue boxes   smile

Clijsters next then for Laura. Obviously a very different match and one I would certainly think that she'll have to play a lot better in to be competitive. However, maybe Laura found strong favouritism against a younger player rather difficult to handle and will ( as she has in the past ) react well to a challenge like Clijsters.

At one point it was looking like a very late start for Laura, so in the end half past midnight isn't too bad.

Anyway, come on Laura!
