way to go andy, way to go! - 24 Sep 2007
The US finally broke the curse of the Scandinavium, beaten Sweden 4-1. :) In two thrilling matches, Andy won both his Davis Cup rubbers, the first 7-6 7-6 6-4 against Joachim Johansson and the second 6-2 7-6 6-3 against Jonas Bjorkman, putting the US into the final.
One crucial thing is that this time it's at home. :) The word on the street has it that the fina will be in Portland, OR, though Winston-Salem, NC is still in the running too. Wherever it is, Andy will be ready to kick some ass, I'm sure.
us open: a predicted result - 08 Sep 2007
On Wednesday night, Andy lost to Roger Federer in the quarter-finals 7-6 7-6 6-2. Predictable, but still sad.
Though it was another straight sets loss, I think it was actually a lot closer than last year's final. Andy was a point away from serving for the second set and both tiebreaks were incredibly close and could have gone either way. Unfortunately, he could not keep it up for three sets and though it was not a walkover in the third, Andy knew he was defeated. Though he loses a lot of points, he'll still be ranked the after the Open and has nothing to defend for the rest of the year.
Next up for Andy is Davis Cup in Sweden, which I will be attending. (Supporting Andy, obviously). After that he heads to Thailand and Tokyo.
us open: quarter-finals, take six - 04 Sep 2007
Andy won by default against Berdych after the Czech retired when he was 7-6 2-0 down. After an early break, Andy started playing tentatively (again) and eventually found himself a break down and Berdych serving for the set. However, Andy broke him to love and won the tiebreak. It was clear Berdych was struggling throughout the match and was no surprise when he called it a day.
Next up for Andy is someone he is 1-13 against, Roger Federer. I think everyone knows this story, so good luck Andy, and don't get too thrashed.
us open: and we're into round four! - 02 Sep 2007
After a slow start, Andy scored a win against Acasuso with a retirement, 4-6 6-1 6-2 Ret. Yesterday he went on to play Thomas Johansson from Sweden, which Andy won 6-3 6-2 6-0. It was one of the best matches I have seen from him in a while, everything came together nicely especially in the second and third sets of the match. It was definitely a delight to watch.
Next up is Tomas Berdych, seeded 9th. Andy has a 1-1 head to head record against him, strangely his one win came on clay in Davis Cup, and the loss came in Madrid last year.
There's a nice photo gallery of andy at SI.com, you can view it here.
us open: round two - 30 Aug 2007
Andy plays Acasuso third on Ashe court this afternoon. Andy has a 3-1 record against him, falling to him at the French Open two years ago after being two sets up.
Hopefully he won't lose on his birthday. Again.
And happy birthday Andy! Don't eat too much cake.
the us open, and beyond - 27 Aug 2007
*shame*
So, after a win in Washington, a QF in Montreal, and a disappointing third round loss in Cincinnati, Andy was ranked 5th going into the US Open - and ended up with a possible QF match against Roger Federer, who is is 1-13 lifetime against.
Andy faces fellow American, Justin Gimblestob, in the first round. He recently beat Gimblestob in the first round at Wimbledon, which is one of the weirdest things ever as there is a very small chance of that happenning. He is not playing tonight, but will probably be on Tuesday's schedule.
Over the last couple of weeks I've been working on the gallery and it's almost ready, which is why there haven't been any site updates (along with vacation in Montreal). I do have a few Andy pictures from Montreal and other tournaments which I will also put up in the gallery.
washington dc, 3rd round - 02 Aug 2007
Andy made it into the third round of Washington on Tuesday with a 6-4 6-2 win. Tonight he plays Radek Stepanek, who Andy has a 2-0 head to head with, though they have only played on grass.
Unfortunately work and life has gotten in the way of me updating here. Next week I will be in Montreal so I will not have time to update the site, however, I will add my pictures and match reports if I get to see Andy when I get home.
roadtrip - indianapolis! - 23 Jul 2007
Andy is starting off his US summer season by playing Indianapolis. He is the number one seed there and in his first round match he plays Alex Kuznetsov.
Not only is Andy playing singles in Indianapolis, he is attempting to defend his doubles title there by teaming with ex-roommate and good friend Mardy Fish. They play tonight at 7pm local time.
Good luck Andy and Mardy!
wimbledon, the quarter-finals - 08 Jul 2007
Late on Friday evening, just as beginning the light ws about to fade at Wimbledon, Andy lost his quarter-final against Richard Gasquet after being two sets and a break up in the match. He led 6-4 6-4 4-2 when Gasquet broke back and got int the match and after that, he was unstoppable. It was clear that Andy was heartbroken after the match, not only from his answers in the press conference but just from the way he walked off court.
If you really want to watch Andy's interview after the match, you can do so here but I warn you, it's not pretty. At all.
Next up for Andy is Indianapolis in two weeks time.
wimbledon, and onto the quarters! - 04 Jul 2007
Yesterday afternoon, Andy played on a mostly sunny Centre Court to finish off his match with Paul-Henri Mathieu. Being up 6-2 6-5 with a break of serve when he walked on court, he quickly finished off the second set but then struggled at the beginning of the third. Though Mathieu served for the set, Andy broke him to love, and after being down 5-0 in the tiebreak, Andy went on to win the match in straight sets, 6-2 7-5 7-6 (6).
It increases his consecutive tiebreak record to 18, and as long as he keeps winning the tiebreaks, he'll continue to set a new record. :)
Today Andy plays Richard Gasquet and they are second on Court 1. He has a 2-0 record against Gasquet, and both times they have played on a harcourt. He has yet to face a breakpoint against Gasquet. Good luck Andy! If his match is completed today it's likely that he will play his semi-final tomorrow, and the final Sunday after a day of rest.
