US Open 2011 Day 4 Open Thread

Order of Play for Thursday, September 1, 2011 - Singles Only



Arthur Ashe Stadium 11:00



Women's Singles - 2nd Round

Mirjana Lucic(CRO) vs. Francesca Schiavone(ITA)[7]

Not Before:13:00

Men's Singles - 2nd Round

Roger Federer(SUI)[3] vs. Dudi Sela(ISR)

Women's Singles - 2nd Round

Michaella Krajicek(NED) vs. Serena Williams(USA)[28]



Schiavone almost double faulted her way out of the tournament in the first round. Will the comeback Croat find a say to finish her off? Let's see if the streaky Israeli has anything to challenge Federer with and I'm happy to see that the Dutch woman has won another Slam match. She'll win some points on her first serve, but I can't imagine Serena will be troubled.



Arthur Ashe Stadium 19:00



Women's Singles - 2nd Round

Caroline Wozniacki(DEN)[1] vs. Arantxa Rus(NED)

Men's Singles - 2nd Round

Novak Djokovic(SRB)[1] vs. Carlos Berlocq(ARG)



If this young Dutch woman can hit Kim Clijsters off the court in a Slam, surely she can do the same to Wozniacki, no? I guess we'll find out. Djokovic cruises.



Louis Armstrong Stadium 11:00



Women's Singles - 2nd Round

Jelena Jankovic(SRB)[11] vs. Jelena Dokic(AUS)

Men's Singles - 2nd Round

Juan Carlos Ferrero(ESP) vs. Gael Monfils(FRA)[7]

Not Before:15:00

Men's Singles - 2nd Round

Malek Jaziri(TUN) vs. Mardy Fish(USA)[8]

Not Before:17:00

Women's Singles - 2nd Round

Victoria Azarenka(BLR)[4] vs. Gisela Dulko(ARG)



The battle of the Jelenas could get entangled. Happy to see Mr. Ferrero win a match and will Dulko's counterpunching trouble Azarenka's one dimension? Fish may have to play four.



Grandstand 11:00



Men's Singles - 2nd Round

Tomas Berdych(CZE)[9] vs. Fabio Fognini(ITA)

Women's Singles - 2nd Round

Andrea Petkovic(GER)[10] vs. Jie Zheng(CHN)

Men's Singles - 2nd Round

Jo-Wilfried Tsonga(FRA)[11] vs. Sergei Bubka(UKR)

Women's Singles - 2nd Round

Shahar Peer(ISR)[23] vs. Sloane Stephens(USA)



What kind of drama will Fognini bring today or will Berdych blast the crap out of him? Stephens has a chance against Pe'er, but she can't get nervous at all. Tsonga and Petkovic should cruise.



Court 17 11:00



Men's Singles - 2nd Round

Radek Stepanek(CZE)[23] vs. Juan Monaco(ARG)

Not Before:13:00

Women's Singles - 2nd Round

Petra Cetkovska(CZE) vs. Ana Ivanovic(SRB)[16]

Men's Singles - 2nd Round

Bernard Tomic(AUS) vs. Marin Cilic(CRO)[27]

Women's Singles - 2nd Round

Vania King(USA) vs. Jarmila Gajdosova(AUS)[29]



Stepanek might be the only comfortable winner on this court. I'd like to see Cetkovska and Tomic pull off the upsets and while I'm not sure where her form is at the moment, King does have a way of deconstructing the games of big, hard-hitting Aussies. We'll see.

Court 13 11:00



Women's Singles - 2nd Round

Alize Cornet(FRA) vs. Roberta Vinci(ITA)[18]

Men's Singles - 2nd Round

Tommy Haas(GER) vs. Alejandro Falla(COL)

Women's Singles - 2nd Round

Pauline Parmentier(FRA) vs. Akgul Amanmuradova(UZB)

Men's Singles - 2nd Round

Marsel Ilhan(TUR) vs. Fernando Verdasco(ESP)[19]



Haas is in the draw? Who knew?



Court 11 11:00



Men's Singles - 2nd Round

Philipp Petzschner(GER) vs. Janko Tipsarevic(SRB)[20]

Women's Singles - 2nd Round

Mona Barthel(GER) vs. Chanelle Scheepers(RSA)

Women's Singles - 2nd Round

Elena Baltacha(GBR) vs. Svetlana Kuznetsova(RUS)[15]

Men's Singles - 2nd Round

Ivo Karlovic(CRO) vs. Richard Gasquet(FRA)[13]



Pertzschner could more than trouble Tipsarevic and if Karlovic has one more win in him, Gasquet better look out.



Court 4 11:00



Women's Singles - 2nd Round

Carla Suarez Navarro(ESP) vs. Simona Halep(ROU)

Women's Singles - 2nd Round

Petra Martic(CRO) vs. Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova(RUS)[17]

Not Before:13:00

Men's Singles - 2nd Round

Marcel Granollers(ESP)[31] vs. Mikhail Kukushkin(KAZ)

Men's Singles - 2nd Round

Potito Starace(ITA) vs. Nikolay Davydenko(RUS)



Can Halep follow-up?



Court 6 11:00



Men's Singles - 2nd Round

Michael Llodra(FRA)[29] vs. Kevin Anderson(RSA)



Could be a long match, but Llorda should come out on top.



Court 7 11:00



Women's Singles - 2nd Round

Kaia Kanepi(EST)[31] vs. Silvia Soler-Espinosa(ESP)

Men's Singles - 2nd Round

Alexandr Dolgopolov(UKR)[22] vs. Flavio Cipolla(ITA)



Whatever will be will be.
