It's been painful to go the entire week without being able to see one U.S. Open match. The only footage I have been able to watch so far was a few minutes of the grueling match between No. 3 Novak Djokovic (Serbia) and Radek Stepanek (CZE). From what I've seen, heard and read, what a match! Djokovic managed to win the fifth set tie break, leaving the score 7-6, 6-7, 7-5, 5-7, 6-7. Other wins on Friday during the 2nd round included Spain's Rafael Nadal who experienced some pains during the 1st round, Tommy Robredo, David Ferrer and Carlos Moya; Argentina's Juan Ignacio Chela and David Nalbandian (4); and USA's Robbie Ginepri. It was sad to see No. 5 Lleyton Hewitt (Australia) go after losing to Agustin Calleri.
Roger Federer plays today against John Isner. Tommy Haas also plays as well as James Blake. Andy Roddick already won today against Thomas Johansson. Many fans were sad to see U.S. Open winner Maria Sharapova defeated by Poland's Agnieszka Radwanska (30).
More to come everyday on the U.S. Open

I was glad to see Roger get his head in the game.
