This is where the tournament starts its slow collapse into a Monday/Tuesday finish.

[lexpretend]

What's the forecast like? I'm out in the early evening. And I'm out tomorrow evening as well. Rain delays plz.

[Brinyi]

As you can see on the map behind me (makes grand sweeping gesture), a series of cold fronts will move through the New York City metropolitan area over the next several days, keeping the threat of showers in the forecast through Saturday. Chance of rain is 80% today, with lower 20% to 40% probabilities through Saturday. As usual, Canada will set things right, sending a high pressure system that will be in control Sunday night on through Tuesday with clearing skies and low humidity.

[Brinyi]

"The current weather forecast calls for rain showers on and off throughout the day. The forecast does call for possible periods of clearing, so today’s day session will go forward as scheduled. We will provide regular updates throughout the day. Please check usopen.org for the latest information.
We will provide an update on the Evening session at 3 p.m. ET this afternoon."

-- US Open website

[Old Hag]

There should be another front passing through NY along with bubbly air on the weekend. 5th straight Monday finish is possible.

[janie]

What is bubbly air?

[Old Hag]

Humid, easily susceptible to rain/thunderstorms popping up.

[janie]

Thanks

[janie]

Twitter is at its most useful during rain delays. Just read that the players on AA and GS have come out onto the courts. Who knows if they'll actually be able to start ...

... and now it's raining again and they're back off court. Fun!

[Old Hag]

I should point out that the schedule is stupid today. Get those 4R men's matches in first. Move the Harrison dopes to Court P46.

[Traveling Man]

It's raining here as well.

I agree. There should be no doubles on the main courts until every singles match is completed, and no juniors on the grounds at all until every USO match, singles, doubles and mixed, is over with for the day.

Azza must be so happy today!

Patches of blue sky at Flushing Meadows. Time for tennis!

[Brinyi]

They are playing.

[janie]

And so they are! Did anyone really think Marion would manage to hold?

If Sara-Roberta is underway, I'd like to watch that. Old-timey tennis!

[Brinyi]

4-2 - Watch Sharapova win 12 games on the trot...

[Brinyi]

5-2. Scratch that theory.

[janie]

Errani looks very sharp, not nervous at all. The matching outfits are a little disconcerting, though!

Ginnie Wade can hardly contain her joy at her chance to watch this style of tennis, this late in a Slam.

[Old Hag]

It amuses me that two of the greatest women's players of this era, Ma$ha and Venus, are completely unable to lower the pace of their 2nd serve to keep it in play. And CAKE, for that matter.

[janie]

Sara up 5-2, no probs w/ her dubs partner.

By the way these two will be the new #1 doubles team post-USO.

But does that mean they have to wear the same dress when they play SINGLES??

[Grarliner]

Errani is going to make the semis, isn't she? She's going to have an F, SF, QF 3r Slam record this season. Better than Woz's 2011!

[Grarliner]

Maria held from 0-40 down. I'm hoping that's not a turning point. Big game here ... 30-30 ...

[Old Hag]

Ma$ha FIGHTING back from her deathly stomach virus this summer. Really, announcers.

[janie]

Just can't watch that.

[Old Hag]

CAKE may be a bitch, but it's fun when she gives it back to Ma$ha.

[Traveling Man]

My laptop crashed when I ran the livestream. What's happening and what bitchiness?

[Old Hag]

Just her usual screaming ALLEZ while staring at her opponent after errors, and shadow tennis before 2nd serves.

Ma$ha is playing better now.

[Traveling Man]

Shit. The fun is over, isn't it?
