Alfie and Gordon lost in 2 long sets! Quite a surprise. Both in singles. Players that beat them include Houdet- he has now beaten the singles top seed, Oda, and now the doubles top seeds. Quite a tournie for him! Hes aged 52!

I've just spotted that there's a junior wheelchair event at the US Open. Is this the first time? I don't recall anything before, but maybe I'm just unobservant!

Just seen that also and I think it is. We have Dahnon Ward in the boys singles and Dahnon with Joshua Johns in the boys doubles. All draws are 4 strong fields , ie 2 rounds of play. Still, good to see.

when it comes to wheelchair play, Wimbledon is a little way behind still
