I don't believe Kuerten lost. He destroyed Safin and i thought he was going to win. Just like Pakistan inconsistent.

I predict Hewitt v Sampras final with Hewitt winning it. Amongst the women the William sisters in the final.
Serena Williams and Davenport are already through to the semi finals.
Any news of Asim and Hadad?
Asim and Hadad were out in the 2nd round.
I am hoping for a Sampras Agassi final.
Sampras the old gun is firing !
I predict a new tennis legacy will be born in thos tournament.
Last year it was a start of great career of Lleyton Hewitt.
2 years before it was Marat Safin who came into the spot light.
But this year it would be america's own Andy Roddick.
The guy has the strongest serve ever known to man.
He is like the Shoaib Akhtar of tennis.

looks like venus had tough time beating Mausresmo.
So much for my theory on a new Legacy.
Andy Roddick is one of the most excting tennis players to watch.
His serves are in 150s, and that is preety fast for tennis, and sppecially on a hard court in US Open.
Pete Sampras making a big comeback, just as when everyone though he was getting old he comes back, one more match and he will meet Hewitt or Agassi two very tough opponents.
BTW - whatever happend to Patrick Rafter and Goran Ivanisavic, haven't seen them in a long time, have they retired already?
Umair 150 in Mph or Kmph ?? If MPH - Then I think yoiu are wrong, there are many players who server faster than Roddick but no one has crossed 150 mph. There is a guy from Canada who served 150 mph server 3 years ago at US open but was not recorded.
But right now it is Greg Reudeski who holds the fastest serve record of 149 mph.
About the Strongest Serve - I would have to say Sampras because his serves are fast and accurate
Serena Williams beat her elder sister Venus williams 6-4, 6-3 to win the US open.
In the mens semi final Andre Agassi beat Hewitt to make it to the finals where he will meet Pete Sampras.
