Steve Johnson just retired due to cramping.

He was in a reasonably good position. With 2 sets to 1 lead.

Anyway, there goes another american down the drain.

Steve Johnson just retired due to cramping.

Did you see any of it? He was having horrible cramping, which caused so many delays that he was losing entire games due to penalties.

sir grigor breaks back..5-5 set two.

Nope, wasn't watching it but they just flashed it up on the screen on the Sharapova match. I was watching that thinking she may lose it before it started but not looking likely now That's terrible losing games due to penalties for cramping :nono

dimitrov a set away from his 1st win at the usopen.

 

[Luxilon Borg]

Glad to Huwhit pounded into the pavement....bye bye..

That was merciless.

Surprised to,see Santiago Giraldo go,out...to Gabeshvili.

 

[Luxilon Borg]

Anyone know what injury Bags had?

Gabashvili has been having a very good year so not that surprising to be honest. He gave Nadal a tough opener in 2010 here too with 2 TB sets.

dimitrov a set away from his 1st win at the usopen.

That's so odd, considering he won it as a junior.

 

[Front242]

^ Sure is actually and I didn't even know he'd never won a match here before.

I saw him lose to Paire two years ago. He is a far different player now. Last years loss was pretty sad too.

 

[Front242]

Yeah, made huge strides.

 

[Luxilon Borg]

I take great pride in calling him out early...even my friend Robbie Koenig was skeptical and didn't see it.

 

[nehmeth]

Harrison is such a punk. He will NEVER amount to much of anything. He loses the tiebreak and can't even hit the ball over the net from there on out.

 

[JesuslookslikeBorg]

grigor wins 6-2, 7-6, 6-2.

breaks his 0-3 losing streak at the usopen.......finally. :clap

He was never going to amount to anything with all the technical flaws in his game.

 

[GameSetAndMath]

Anyway, today the Americans are 2 for 2. :snigger
