Mens US Open Championship
 
Anyone watching this today? First set went almost an hour and a half. Windy which makes it more about strategy then power. Murray wins the first

Is it a repeat from the 70s when they still played pro tennis?

I bet Matt Casshole is really good at tennis!

Borg and McEnroe days? Rackets changed the game since then

I was a little kid then, used to sit with my dad and watch them go at it. Lendl and Connors too. Good stuff. Then I got old enough to play team sports and that was that.

I quit the team sports and played tennis in my younger days. Always liked the fact that I had noone to blame but myself if I lost.

I can understand that.
I played tennis for fun at the little country club where I grew up until I was 10 or so. Now I'm showing my kids the basics; damn it's a LOT more of a cardio workout now than it was 35 years ago.

I wish I was in that shape again. Damn legs were as hard as a rock when they got pumped up. It's a wonderful way to get in shape. Concentrating on hitting the shots makes the mind forget about putting the legs to work

You played more than I did, I was just a casual player .

I've just recently started again as something to do while at my boy's practice.
I hit the ball around with my youngest boy while his brother has football practice at a local park. It's a nice way to end the day.

Is Sampras or Agassi playing?

Both. And the Chiefs expect Montana to start next week. Djokovic vs. Murray. US best chance in tennis, Rodrick retired after his loss last week. Too bad the United States can't field mens tennis stars anymore.
