I hate to be a Negative Nellie, but Saturday’s forecast ain’t looking too good. But if it does dry off, here’s the very tentative schedule for the rest of the weekend (all times Eastern):
US OPEN SCHEDULE: SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 12, 2009 – all broadcast on the CBS network
Arthur Ashe Stadium, 12:00 pm start
Nadal vs. Gonzalez (Quarterfinal completion)
Dlouhy/Paes vs. Bupathi/Knowles (Men’s Doubles Final) – this match may move to Armstrong Stadium
Wickmayer vs. Wozniacki (Semifinal) – this match may move to Armstrong Stadium
Arthur Ashe Stadium, not before 8:00pm:
Serena Williams vs. Clijsters (Semifinal)
The CBS network will be broadcasting all day on Saturday, from 12:00 – 6:00pm and then from 8:00 – 10:00pm for Serena vs. Kim.
US OPEN SCHEDULE: SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 13, 2009
12:00 – 3:00pm – Men’s Semifinal 1 on ESPN2
4:30 – 7:00pm – Men’s Semifinal 2 on CBS
9:00 – 11:00pm – Women’s Final on ESPN2
Note: Different sites have different breakdowns for the way the two networks will split the men’s semis. Basically ESPN2 is showing the first one live, and I have no idea what CBS is doing with the second one.
US OPEN SCHEDULE: MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 14, 2009
1:00 – 3:00pm – Women’s Doubles Final on ESPN2
4:00 – 7:00pm – Men’s Final on CBS
Note: That men’s final better be LIVE in ALL TIME ZONES!
Please be aware that things will (likely) continue to change with the weather and other issues. I’ll try to update as I learn more.

Hey i saw the latest update on the website u posted. Perhaps the organizers should start early at 10, 10:30am (local time) as it is the time the %ages of the precipitation chances are at lower side although still cloudy. perhaps could be enough to complete nadal match and at least put some order to men's schedule
I'm a Federer fan to the core, but this just sucks for Nadal and Gonzo. They need to think about putting a roof on one of the show courts.
Nadal completed his match in just 30 minutes.
As nadal supporter i am just happy and just like Nadal said, do not worry of playing 3 days in row provided that abdominal injury of his holds up just like it seemed to after that almagro match in nadal's match against monfils.
No play yesterday actually meant Nadal virtually was able to get a day off which he couldn't have had if there was play as then today would have been semis and so on…
Never the less Delpotro is tough and a day more rested. Will be difficult for Nadal to beat him but just if he could remain abdominal painless, could pull up victory. Would have atleast some plan after that previous montreal defeat , would come to execution perhaps and perhaps to Nadal's fitness.
Fingers crossed !
