Hingis just double faulted 3 times in a row to lose her doubles match against the #1 seeds. Damn.

Excellent article on Grantland about Del Potro:

Good article. Unfortunately, Delpo is playing like shite right now. Shanking that forehand all over the place

eta: He just handed Hewitt a break with about 4 unforced errors in a row

I think Hewitt is just outplaying him.

I wasn't watching for long, but when I was Delpo was just spraying his forehand into the net and long repeatedly. More him just not playing well than Hewitt sraight up beating him

That'll probably do it for this one. Great for Hewitt.

Great win for Hewitt. Delpo folded like a cheap suit in the fifth though.

dammit delpo

i watched his matches this week.
he didn't use his backhand up the line at all. never played aggressively. played to just stay in the match and it caught up with him. they mentioned how his left wrist was bothering him..

i like watching him and nadal play.

That was a great comeback for Hewitt after seeming to start gagging earlier.

One of my favorite women players is into the 4th round, Hantuchova.

I used to have a big thing for Daniela years ago.
