Sloane Stephens promised it would be an epic match against Serena.
I didn't think so.

Well, the first set was quite close. Then reality set in.

Yes, I am, as always, glued to every televised moment of the US Open and every other Grand Slam tournament. Followed the women's Wimbledon final on my phone at Hyde Park (and rewarded by seeing McEnroe pop out briefly from backstage).

well I'm not, somebody else might be............

Ilove the U.S Open Tennis t ournament and have been glued to the TV since it started. Yes, I wanted Stevens to beat Serena....didn't happen. I'm a huge Rafa Nadal fan so I hope he can make it to the final and win.

How's Murray Mint doing?

Won in straights today.

I'm too cheap to pay attention.

Haven't seen anything since Connors and McEnroe quit! Boring today!

Not boring...Connors and Borg are playing right now!

Nadal plays key match today.
Li Na is well worth watching in her next match...she's moving on up.

GO NOLE!

I will root for anyone playing Serena Williams

nadal will win

Yes, and this guy (Ilie "Nasty" Nastase), too!



And for the women, Evert, Navratilova, and Graf.

Since then, it's been the U.S. Closed.

Are you guys living in an "old folks home"?

You're missing some fine tennis here in 2013.

On the contrary...we ain't seeing no tennis today...

Come on Andy. You can do it.

YES

Typical that when we get a day off work to watch tennis it gets rained out (hence the fact that everyone's watching Connors and Borg--actually it was a bit of a thrill to revisit the end of that Connors/Krickstein tiebreak). However, back live now!

yeah i was excited to watch today.

Sorry, but when it comes to tennis...... it's Wimbledon or nothing for me!

The last exciting thing I saw at the tennis was when those clowns ran onto the Centre court at Wimbledon with big signs saying "STONES FOR KNEBWORTH"........

Maybe Federer should retire??

Love it...the Australian Open comes right on the heels of the football season, so its a nice change of pace.
And I always root against Serena, not because I don't like her - but I love to see an upset.
I think Azarenka has a chance, It's going to be fun to watch..

Watching this morning's replay of the classic matches and it made me miss those days of colorful characters and personalities. I was trying to explain to my niece that tennis used to be huge....

What is this "tennis" you speak of? Go Seahawks!

I wish someone like Jimmy Connors would reappear or even McEnroe they were entertaining!!

McEnroe is still entertaining, IMO!

Disappointing effort by Fed but I don't think it's reason to retire unless he wants to--he's certainly got nothing left to prove.

I try. But as of now I'm not caught up on who is in or out.

I know Serena will be there till the end (I can't see anyone knocking her out, I think she wants this one).
