Mardy Fish takes out Del Potro in Miami. 7-5,7-6 … Whoa and Mardy served more aces. The Fish had 10 to Delpos 6. The match lasted just under two and a half hours. Juan martins first serve percent was low. The first set he was only at 58 percent and it went up to 68 percent in the second set. But still not good enough.
This was a tennis tournament.... Like no other. This was a U.S. Open like no other.. Let's start with new logo. It's click art like ours? But we aren't the USTA.
The only way to describe this U.S. open is soaking wet without raining... It's really hard to play tennis when your socks are soaking wet and you are "sloshing" in your shoes. Your shoes get really heavy when they get wet.
What a start. First match in the new stadium and bye bye ladies number one seed and WTA World Number One. Simona Halep. Losing to Estonian Kaia Kanepi.
It was the end of an era at Crandon Park for the Miami Open last year. From the Lipton, to the Nasdaq 100, to the Sony Ericsson, to the Sony, to the Miami Open presented by Itau, Key Biscayne saw it all.
