Roddick out
I went out to dinner Saturday night but made it back before the end of the Roddick-Isner match. Apparently CBS had stopped their coverage for the day, but fortunately the US Open website showed live footage of the match. Isner won the first two sets, and Roddick came back to win the third. I saw the end of the fourth set, which was close. I believe Isner even had a set point while leading 5-4, but Roddick ended that opportunity with an ace. He then broke back to take the set. The fifth set went along without any breaks and ultimately went to a tiebreaker. Roddick couldn't win a point off of Isner's serve, and Isner broke Roddick one time. That was good enough, and the upset was complete. The other top guys are still hanging in there. I watched Nadal defeat Almagro yesterday, and I missed Murray's night match, but he also won. Djokovic and Federer will both play later today. And you can never count out del Potro. So there's still lots of tennis yet to be played.
