US OPEN TENNIS - Day 4

Day 3 had lots of surprises and drama associated with a Grand Slam event such as this.Andy Roddick's stay in the U.S. Open was a short one as he blew up over a foot fault and then lost to Janko Tipsarevic.Roddick has been under a
fitness cloud due to an illness he had prior to the event.When Andy gets worked up he really does get worked up and its sad to see a former champion go out like this.I guess Roddick is not getting younger and another Grand Slam win is beyond him me thinks!.The other exciting event was another Venus Williams fashion show what the **** did she have on to day? Was it short shorts , or was it a short dress with shorts? I wonder when Venus gets in front of that mirror when dressing does she say" hey American public and tennis fans I have something to show you today! And I wonder if the TV public is like me and switch channels.
The drama continued with Azarenka Trailing Gisela Dulko 5-1 in the first set in stifling conditions, Azarenka stopped suddenly while chasing a ball on the baseline, and crumpled to the ground. Is it in an athletes genes that they just cant handle a hot day?One wonders what is their diet , is this a reason why so many players fade in the heat.
