14:49 Pacific - Roger Federer has looked so much better during the course of the U.S. Open than he has at any other point during the 2008 season. But Federer still looks like he's lacking that top gear that saw him keep a stranglehold on the top spot in tennis for over four years. As this gets written, Federer just dropped his first set against Igor Andreev, playing sloppy tennis to lose the first-set tiebreak and jeopardize his bid to return to the quarterfinals at Flushing Meadows.

The biggest upset yet to hit the 2008 U.S. Open came right at the top of the women's draw. Yesterday at Flushing Meadows, number-one seed and world number-one Ana Ivanovic tumbled out of the tournament, losing in three sets (6-3, 4-6, 6-3) to French qualifier Julie Coin. The Frenchwoman, ranked 188 in the WTA standings, did a great job in winning her match... but with thirty-four unforced errors, Ivanovic handed away this match as much as Coin claimed it as her own.

A day after the women finished the first round at Flushing Meadows, the men completed the remainder of their first-round matchups with Andy Roddick's straight-sets victory (6-2, 6-2, 6-2) over Fabrice Santoro of France. With fifteen aces in the match, Roddick looks fresh and determined to add to his 2003 U.S. Open crown. It looks as though his decision to forgo the Olympics in Beijing is serving him well, as his match against Santoro went less than ninety minutes.

SUGGESTION:

I have another one for you, Bigalke. At the end of each blog recap, you should put a little preview for the next day's stage. Maybe put some info and notes such as "Longest stage of the tour" or stuff like that. It would be helpful for next day's viewing.
