US Open Tennis

Now that play has finally resumed, who do you think is gonna win?

On the men's side, it sure looks like Agassi and Roddick are on course for the "made for U.S. TV" final. I just don't see Ferrero beating Agassi, and certainly Roddick should dispense of Nalbandian or El-Aynaoui. Damn, how did Federer lose to this Nalbandian guy?
My pick: Agassi wins, and then retires, like Sampras last year.

On the ladies side, I sense an upset of Capriati over Henin, and then I pick her to beat Clijsters in the final. Clijsters chokes under pressure, and being the favorite in the final will not help her.

I see Henin and Clijsters both end up in the final. I don't think Capriati & Davenport are strong enough to pose big problems to both players. And since Henin is playing at her best right now, I think she will beat Clijsters in the final.

looks like an all belgian women final.. Hienin all the way. for a 126lb chick, she's got some zip on her balls.

it will be an US final: Roddick, prolly the best server on tour right now against the best returner of all time. it will be an awesome one regad;ess who wins. However, i do think Roddick is due for a major crown.

i was hoping to see Roger Federer in the final...

Henin wins !

i'm impressed by her mental strenght..It' incredible how she changed during the last half year..Before, she often lost against herself..That is over..
