Laura's serve still very dodgy but the rest of her game is in good nick.

Came from 3-4 down in both sets to clinch them.

Is this karma?

Steve Johnson, the top-ranked American, could face del Potro in second round. (Ashe) #USOpen

Wasn't he against Delpo getting a wildcard?

Andy v Rosol and maybe, possibly Johnson v Delpo... oh how I live for drama like this.

Watson and Broady get qualifiers, Konta has a tricky R1 with BMS. Edmund v Gasquet. Bedene gets the joys of Kyrgios. Evo v Ram. Some other tasty opening picks in -

Serena v Makarova
Safarova v Gavrilova
Halep v Flipkens
Strycova v Niculescu
Schiavone v Kuznetsova
Dreddy v Rao-notso-bot
Verdasco v Stanimal

Why is puig seeded? Did someone wd? Who?

I can see Serena in MAJOR trouble against makarova. Too bad it wasn't Ak can't see Hercoq take her out but maybe cornet in 2R.

And if male JJ finds form, Novak can lose 1R. It's the kind of match I really don't think he wanted...

Nick could face Stan in the R16....

BIB: As much as I like Gilles, he has had a crap year so far, so I wouldn't be betting my house on him being in the 3rd round....

Djokovic's route:

R1 Janowicz
R2 Vesely
R3 Klizan
R4 Gasquet
Q Cilic
SF Nadal
F Murray

I knew there was a reason I wasn't keen on Johnson now I know why. Karma, love it.
In the USA at the moment. Looking forward to watching evening matches in real time also have Eurosport on a proxy.

Robson into main draw.
Eight British Singles players. 4 Men, 4 Women..

Can't recall if this has happened before.

Wow, she's really back. Hope she gets a good draw.

Well I hope she wins even with a crap draw.

When you think how it turned around for her in Landisville, she went through after Tara Moore had to retire in their match, and won the singles and doubles. A little bit of good fortune (bad luck for Tara) and it seems as though her confidence is returning
