Novak Djokovic really isn’t hot on the New York heat. I just caught this clip of Nole getting all steamy about the shade right after his 6-3, 3-6, 2-6, 7-5, 6-3 victory over Victor Troicki on Tuesday. On court temps topped 100-degrees during the match. Something tells me he doesn’t call his girlfriend, the lovely [...]

A busy, surprising and hot, hot, hot day (and night) in NYC on Wednesday. Take this, for example: Pre-tournament favorite and No. 10 seed Victoria Azarenka suffered the second Major retirement of her career on Wednesday at the US Open (she retired against Serena Williams at the 2009 Australian Open), literally falling to Gisela Dulko [...]

2010 US OPEN ORDER OF PLAY DAY FOUR: THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 2 *All times ET Roger Federer, Maria Sharapova, Novak Djokovic, Jelena Jankovic, and Svetlana Kuznetsova are all in action on day four of the US Open.

Victoria Azarenka collapsed during the 1st set of her match against Gisela Dulko today on GrandStand court. Dulko was leading 5-1 in the 1st set at the time of the collapse. Sounds like maybe the heat may have possibly exacerbated her mild concussion? Either way, a real bummer for Azarenka. Feel better! Some quotes from [...]

Lightening does strike twice! Roger Federer repeated last year’s “greatest shot” on Monday night in Arthur Ashe stadium during his first round match vs. Argentine journeyman Brian Dabul. Here’s Roger’s tweener, 2010 style (watch quick, before it’s inevitably taken down by tennis youtube police): The shot’s great, and these reactions are almost as good: Paul [...]

A jetsetting Fernando Verdasco is featured in the September issue of GQ, adding some dapper decoration to Madrid-Barajas’s already stunning Terminal 4. (Hmm. . .wonder what those Lindt girls would do to him?) Once you peel your eyes away from the photos, you can read Verdasco’s thoughts on “la Época de Oro” – Spain’s sporting [...]
