Stosur v Petrova has gone over 3 hours, into 3rd set. Longest womens match in US open history since tie breaks were introduced.
Stosur has had match points in 2nd and 3rd sets but blown them

Stosur wins 7-6,6-7,7-5
Well done, played some brilliant tennis.
Hopefully that gets a bit of a monkey of her back, she has lost so many of those matches over the last couple of years and when she trailed in the final set she showed great grit to win it.
Now meets Kirilenko in next round for a spot in the quarters

Rafa against Nalbandian, hopefully it's mildly entertaining.

The USTA's in the gun now after yesterday's debacle. Rafa, Murray and Roddick less than impressed.

10 minutes of 'play' was all we got.

Tournament becoming a joke, I really feel for Murray and Rafa, they could potentially play 4 best of 5 set matches in as many days.

Stosur crushed No. 2 seed Zvonareva 6-3, 6-3 :ymapplause:
Now into the semis where she will meet the winner of Kerber/Penetta.
Both are ranked well below Sam so a huge chance to make the final.
No real upsets in the Mens with the big guns easily through to the quarters.

Djokovic, Nadal, Federer, Murray.

All in the SF's.

The top 4 are so, so far ahead of the rest it's not even funny.

Federer has taken the first set in a tie break and has broken Djokovic early in the 2nd, he is playing some fantastic tennis and the Djok is starting to lose the plot. Would love to see Djokovic sent packing
