US Open kicked off yesterday with some tough dread for British women.
Heather Watson succumbed to Li NA in straight sets but has another chance in the women's doubles, she's won 2 doubles tournaments this year so hope she does well here.
Laura Robson won her first round match and now faces Clijsters in round 2 who is in her last slam before retiring, could anything happen in that?
Keothavong and Konta in action later today.
Murray safely through with his new aggressive game.

5-1 down comes back to win 7-5 against a girl 150 places higher in rankings.
Her first Grand Slam win, great news for British tennis.

Jonty,

What IS British tennis?

Everyone who plays tennis in Britain.
From the kids I coach through to the 82 year old holocaust survivor who played with us on Sundays until recently.

I just got in from yet another very tough day in my truck, this time driving round various Printing places and moving tonns upon tonns of paper/adverts around and have just seen that result Jonty and am chuffed to rocks for Laura.
Clearly her opponent is now finished and I wish them both well in their respective futures, Lauras of course on the tennis courts.
Repeat, chuffed to rocks for her.
