Default Some great tennis on right now

Andy Roddick is playing this guy Joachim Johansson in the quarters of the U.S. Open right now. Roddick is seeded 2 and Johansson is down at 28, but he's an up-and-comer type guy who was injured for the beginning of the year.

These are the two hardest-hitting players in tennis right now.

Johansson won the first two sets, Roddick won the third, and he's up 5-2 in the fourth. That means it's going to a fifth set, and oh by the way this will be Johansson's first professional five-set match ever.

So, if you're lookin to see some good tennis, flip the tube over to USA and check it out.

Hmm, sooner or later I knew that Roddick would eventually lose, because he cannot do anything else besides serve.

Whoa, another crazy match!

Jennifer Capriati is playing this Dementieva chick in the semis; Dementieva won the 1st set 6-0, Capriati won the 2nd 6-2, and now it's deuce at 5-5 in the third.
