US Open 2010 - Does Andy Roddick have a clue?

After watching Andy Roddick being given a tennis lesson by Serbian Janko Tipsarevic on controlled aggression and a scoreline of 3-6, 7-5, 6-3, 7-6(4) for the Serbian, I had to find out, why?

What Janko Tipsarevic had to say did not surprise me:

- 'I was playing a little bit more risky (in the third set), but I don't feel that I was rushing too much. I was trying that in the first set, and I played a really good first three games and then I made two mistakes... and there's the break. Of course, I made a couple of unbelievable shots from back of the court, but most of the winners that I made I was stepping in and being close to the line. That's the point on the court where I'm most dangerous.'

On the other hand what Andy Roddick had to say completely floored me!

Tennis - US Open 2010 - Heavy ball for the men, lighter ball for the women!

Just zombieing through the match between Andy Roddick and Janko Tipsarevic, when a comment from one of announcers woke me up.

'Oh, another thirteen ball rally...in the match I.BENESOVA M.SHARAPOVA the rallies were on average 3 to four shots'

Indications are that Roger Federer's return to the US Open comes with a taste of revenge from last years defeat in the final to presently injured Argentine player, Juan Martin Del Potro, who is a no show for the tournament.

Oddly enough Roger gets an Argentine player Brian Dabul, to ventilate last years frustrations and made short work of Dabul in one hour and 26 minutes 6-1, 6-4, 6-2.
