Indoors or outdoors, it's good to own a power game....
Once again Sam Querrey showcased his power coming up with 11 aces and getting his first serve in 63 percent of the time to take a 6-3, 6-4 win over Jose Acasuso in the first men's semifinal match of the day.
One of his aces was so powerful, when it bounced off the court it hit the manual portable scoreboard that was set up to show the scoring in the match (numbers were manually attached to the board). When it hit the scoreboard the numbers on the scoreboard flew off and had to be replaced.
The men's semifinals were moved indoors at Yale's Cullman Courts with Querrey's match starting at 11 a.m. The Igor Andreev-Fernando Verdasco semifinal match is being played now.
The rain finally stopped around 1 p.m. and the blowers are out in full force on Stadium Court in preparation for the women's final - Caroline Wozniacki vs. Elena Vesnina. The match could start by 3 p.m. barring any more rain.
If you were on the fence about whether tennis would be played today, you should come to the Tennis Center because matches will be played.....
