The 17-year-old Georgia native's incredible run is still going strong, as Oudin advanced to her first Grand Slam quarterfinal with a 1-6, 7-6(2), 6-3 come-from-behind win over No. 13 seed Nadia Petrova. On her third match point, Oudin hit a screaming forehand crosscourt winner that landed out of Petrova's reach. The second the ball hit the open court, she raised her arms and dropped her racket, with the entire crowd in Arthur Ashe Stadium on its feet and erupting in celebration. But the cheers were not only limited to the main show court. Petrova dominated through the beginning stages of the match, using her power baseline game to stun the young American. An opening service break was the only time Petrova dropped a game in the first set. But it wasn’t until the second set that her game started to fall apart, and she just could not keep the ball in play. Petrova hit a staggering 59 unforced errors on the match, 25 of which came in the second set, and another 22 in the third. The second set saw Oudin take a quick 5-0 lead in the breaker, capitalizing on the Russian's errors. A Petrova forehand that sailed wide gave the American the set. Petrova served to stay in the match at 5-3, saving two match points. But on Oudin's third match point, she fired a solid crosscourt forehand, a shot that she relied on to win so many rallies in the match, and closed it out. Belgian

tournament, the first set saw Kvitová control the match with her winners and unforced errors, the rest of the match saw the same with Wickmayer making more winners and unforced errors, however for Kvitová, Wickmayer took advantage of the Czech's unforced errors and win the match 4-6 6-4 7-5. Caroline Wozniacki survived over an erratic Svetlana Kuznetsova 2-6, 7-6 (5), 7-6 (3) in an absorbing 2 ½ hour contest that kicked off Monday's night session on Arthur Ashe Stadium. The ninth seed saved a pair of match points prior to the final tiebreak with courageous winners. She ended up losing the last four points of the affair, though, and delivered a staggering 63 unforced errors 55 coming from the last 2 sets to go along with 59 winners. Wozniacki was more solid, with respective numbers of 25 and 16. Things started off well for Wozniacki, breaking Kuznetsova at the start. A fierce Kuznetsova forehand overpowered Wozniacki in the ensuing game to make it. Wozniacki's misery was complete in getting broken at 2-5 from 40-15 up. The errors increased for the Russian, and mounted in the third game, especially on the backhand. Wozniacki broke, conceded serve, and regained the advantage for 5-4. Kuznetsova picked on a second serve to make it 5-5, and a first tiebreak was needed. Wozniacki won it 7-5. Twelve of the 14 points saw either a Kuznetsova winner or unforced error. Somewhat predictably, Kuznetsova then hit a forehand into the net as Wozniacki stood stranded on the baseline. Riding the momentum, Wozniacki tossed away the first game of the decider, broken after leading 40-15. Kuznetsova almost reciprocated, but hung on by putting away a smash for 2-0. Kuznetsova's collapse began at 3-2, missing three routine forehands. Down 4-3 and tied 15-all, Kuznetsova sent an easy backhand volley wide. Two more unforced errors followed, allowing Wozniacki to serve for the match. Kuznetsova broke back, and then faced a first match point at 4-5 when a tentative forehand gave Wozniacki a backhand pass, which he took. Typical of Kuznetsova, a stunning backhand down the line thwarted the danger. Two straight aces made it 5-5, but Kuznetsova blew a 30-0 lead at 5-6, double faulting to set up match point No. 2. She went for it again, and delivered, smacking an inside out forehand winner. An ace eventually leveled the score at 6-6. Wozniacki pulled ahead 3-0. Pegged back to 3-3, Kuznetsova let Wozniacki off the hook by sending a forehand into the net, and slicing a backhand into the net. An errant return sailed wide for 6-3, and this time there was no comeback. A forehand into the net made it 7-3.

prevailed over Frenchman
Jo-Wilfried Tsonga in four sets, Tsonga rushed the net with a pair of successful serve-and-volley plays to hold for 1-0. Then Tsonga broke the Gonzalez serve at the fourth games for a 3-1 lead. The Chilean reacted by bashing his Babolat frame into the backdrop, scaring a ballboy and drawing a healthy round of "boos" from the fans. He bounced it off the court four points later before winning back the crowd by donating the cursed racquet to a fan in the front row. Despite getting back the fans he wasn't able to break back. Gonzalez started the second set strongly, holding at love and earning a break point in Tsonga's first service game. Tsonga serve-and-volleyed off a 128 mph delivery, but the Chilean's dipping backhand return forced him to hit a defensive volley, allowing Gonzalez to crush a crosscourt forehand winner. Tsonga had a chance to break back at 1-3, but Gonzalez ran him off the court with another crosscourt forehand before stretching for a drop volley winner. He pumped his fist, held his serve, then clinched the second set. Little separated the players during the 61-minute third set. with the set coming to a tie-break.
Gonzalez saved three break points in the sixth game, holding with a run-around forehand winner. Tsonga returned the favor in the 11th game by fighting off three break points on his own serve, punctuating the hold with a 137 mph service winner. From 3-4 in the tiebreaker, Tsonga made two more first serves, but Gonzalez hit two better backhand passing shots. He took the set with an ace off the service tee, to the delight of a large Chilean contingent in the crowd. Tsonga let two break points slip away in the first game of the fourth set as Gonzalez fired yet another round of forehands at the Frenchman. The seventh-seeded Tsonga finished just 1-of-14 on break points. Gonzalez risked losing the crowd support again early in the fourth when he broke with US Open tradition and demanded a ball back from a fan who caught it. One point later, Tsonga hit an overhead winner into the crowd, as if to make up for Gonzalez’ request for his ball back earlier in the match. Gonzalez then broke Tsonga in the game and the 11th-seeded Gonzalez advanced to his second US Open quarterfinal, having reached this stage seven years ago. He is now set to face

. Nadal led 7-6 and 3-2 in a second-set tiebreak when play was called off late Thursday evening. Precipitation throughout a gloomy Friday rendered play impossible, throwing the schedule into chaos and prompting a resumption Saturday at noon. Gonzalez had to win the second set to have any realistic shot of pulling off an upset, but he made three straight forehand unforced errors to gift Nadal a 6-2 lead. The forehand is Gonzalez's most potent wing. Nadal's fourth set point – he squandered three prior to the tiebreak – ended with a Gonzalez backhand return into the net. Gonzalez coughed up two double faults in the first game of the third, including on break point. Not surprisingly, the temperamental 29-year-old responded by flinging his racquet in disgust. After Nadal held in the ensuing game for 2-0, at deuce, things were over. Nadal broke again, and Gonzalez needed an extensive tape job during the changeover, the lone reason the third set extended to 31 minutes. Gonzalez, who wasted two set points in the first on the Nadal serve, claimed 12 points and committed 21 unforced errors. He managed three winners in the third, far less than the 31 combined in the first two sets.

In the first match, Juan Martín del Potro defeated third-ranked Rafael Nadal easily, winning 6-2, 6-2, 6-2 and became the first finalist of the men's singles tournament. Del Potro's convincing victory, which echoed Caroline Wozniacki's takedown of crowd favorite Melanie Oudin in the quarterfinals, set the twenty-year-old Argentine up for his first Grand Slam final.
In the second semifinal of the women's doubles championship Cara Black and Liezel Huber defeated Samantha Stosur and Rennae Stubbs in three sets and they became finalist of the championship to defend which they got in 2008.
Lukáš Dlouhý and Leander Paes won the men's doubles defeating Mahesh Bhupathi and Mark Knowles also in three sets.
Del Potro's opponent in the men's championship match was decided in a contest between world number one Roger Federer and fourth-ranked Novak Djokovic, who lost to Federer in the final of the 2007 U.S. Open. Federer dispatched his opponent in straight sets, winning 7-6(3), 7-5, 7-5, to round out the final two players remaining from an original draw of 128 men's professional tennis players.
In the women's final, unranked Kim Clijsters capped off an impressive return to professional tennis with a win over ninth seed Caroline Wozniacki of Denmark, winning 7-5, 6-3, for her second Grand Slam title.
