Nightshift Sports: US Open 5 September 2018

Day 10
Context and Background 
The U.S. Open, which started August 27th and runs through September 9th,  is the last tennis major of the year. There was a week of qualifying (the qualifying started on 21 August) and now the real heavy lifting begins with the last week of the tournament now in progress.
Results 
Men’s Singles:

  • Novak Djokovic defeats John Millman 6-3, 6-4, 6-4
  • Kei Nishikori defeats Marin Cilic 2-6, 6-4, 7-6, 4-6, 6-4

Both Djokovid and Millman were bothered and distracted by the heat, with numerous shirt changes for each. The understory of this US Open has been the very hot, disruptive weather.
The last American male in the tournament, “Big John” Isner lost to Martin del Poltro in four sets. Isner has been increasingly a factor in the late stages of Grand Slams but has yet to win one. Let’s hope that he picks up at least one major before his career ends…..
Women’s Singles:

  • Naomi Osaka defeats Lesia Tsurenko, 6-1, 6-1
  • Madison Keys defeats Carla Suarez Navarro, 6-4,6-3

Osaka is the first Japanese woman to make the semi-finals at the U.S.Open in over two decades. She is twenty years old and played extremely well in the tournament.
Madison Keys knocked out Suarez Navarro, who knocked out Maria Sharapova. Keys will be appearing in her second straight US Open semi-finals. Is the year she finally gets her major?

Day 9

Context and Background 
The U.S. Open, which started August 27th and runs through September 9th,  is the last tennis major of the year. There was a week of qualifying (the qualifying started on 21 August) and now the real heavy lifting begins with the last week of the tournament now in progress.
Results 
Men’s Singles:

  • Nadal took out Thiem, 0-6, 6-4, 7-5,6-7, 7-6
  • del Poltro dropped Isner, 7-6, 3-6, 6-7, 2-6

Rafa Nadal and Dominic Thiem played the longest match of the tournament (5 hours and 5 sets) but, in the end, Nadal pushed through to win and move into the semi-finals. Nadal is on track to make it to the Men’s Championship Finals for the second year in a row.
The last American male in the tournament, “Big John” Isner lost to Martin del Poltro in four sets. Isner has been increasingly a factor in the late stages of Grand Slams but has yet to win one. Let’s hope that he picks up at least one major before his career ends…..
Women’s Singles:

  • Williams beat Pliskova, 6-4, 6-3
  • Sevastova knocked off Stephens, 6-2, 6-3

Serena is very much at home at the U.S. Open, and won in straight sets over Pliskova. She’s on a roll.
Last year’s champion, Sloan Stephens was taken out in straight sets by Sevastova. Stephens has played well this year, but not necessarily inspired and it takes more than good form to win a major.

Day 8
Embed from Getty Images
Context and Background 
The U.S. Open, which started August 27th and runs through September 9th,  is the last tennis major of the year. There was a week of qualifying (the qualifying started on 21 August) and now the real heavy lifting begins with the last week of the tournament now in progress.
Results 
Men’s Singles:

  • Kei Nishikori defeats Philipp Kohlschreiber 6-3, 6-2, 7-5
  • Novak Djokovic defeats Joao Sousa 6-3, 6-4, 6-3
  • John Millman defeats Roger Federer 3-6, 7-5, 7-6, 7-6
  • Marin Cilic vs.  David Goffin 7-6, 6-2, 6-4

The upset of the tournament: John Millman of Australia beat Roger Federer in four sets. Federer–always a class act–took the defeat gracefully. The loss was unexpected.
Cilic came back from some rocky play in the first set to take a three set victory over David Goffin.
Women’s Singles:

  • Madison Keys defeats Dominika Cibulkova 6-1, 6-3
  • Naomi Osaka defeats  Aryna Sabalenka 6-3, 2-6, 6-4
  • Carla Suárez Navarro defeats Maria Sharapova 6-4, 6-3
  • Lesia Tsurenko defeats Markéta Vondroušová  6-7, 7-5, 6-2

Maria Sharapova finally lost in a night match at the U.S. Open, to Carla Suarez Navarro. Sharapova–who has looked shaky on serve for the entire tournament–simply could not get rolling in time to stave off a defeat. She is now 23-1 under the lights.

Nightshift Sports: US Open, 2 September 2018

Day 7
Context and Background 
The U.S. Open, which started August 27th and runs through September 9th,  is the last tennis major of the year. There was a week of qualifying (the qualifying started on 21 August) and now the real heavy lifting begins with the last week of the tournament now in progress.
Results 
Men’s Singles:

  • Dominic Thiem defeats Kevin Anderson 7-5, 6-2, 7-6
  • Rafael Nadal defeats Nikoloz Basilashvili 6-3, 6-3, 6-7, 6-4
  • John Isner defeats  Milos Raonic 3-6, 6-3, 6-4, 3-6, 6-2
  • Juan Martin del Potro vs. Borna Coric, 6-4, 6-3.6-1

Dominic Thiem, who has a very big (and promising game) took out Wimbledon finalist Kevin Anderson in straight sets. The match was close but Thiem was successfully able to play within his considerable abilities and take a big win.
John Isner continued his march through the tournament, winning in four sets against Raonic in a battle of tall, big-servers. Isner seems to play his very best in the majors. He’s due.
Women’s Singles:

  •  Karolina Pliskova defeats  Ashleigh Barty 6-4, 6-4
  •  Serena Williams defeats Kaia Kanepi 6-0, 4-6, 6-3
  •  Anastasija Sevastova defeats  Elina Svitolina 6-3, 1-6, 6-0
  •  Sloane Stephens defeats  Elise Mertens 6-3, 6-3

Jarolina Pliskova pushed Ashleigh Barty aside to move into the next round. She could be trouble in her part of the draw.
Not unexpectedly, Serena Williams beat Kaia Kanepi–who knocked out the tournament’s number 1 seed in the first round. Serena cruised through her previous match with her sister and was extended to three sets by Kanepi.
Sloane Stephens maintained her winning pace by beating Mertens in two sets.

Nightshift Sports: US Open, 1 September 2018

Day 6
Context and Background 
The U.S. Open, which started August 27th and runs through September 9th,  is the last tennis major of the year. There was a week of qualifying (the qualifying started on 21 August) and now the real heavy lifting began with the last week of the tournament now in progress.
Results 
Men’s Singles:

  • Roger Federer defeats  Nick Kyrgios 6-4, 6-1, 7-5
  • Philipp Kohlschreiber defeats  Alexander Zverev 6-7, 6-4, 6-1, 6-3
  • Kei Nishikori defeats  Diego Schwartzman 6-4, 6-4, 5-7, 6-1
  • Joao Sousa defeats Lucas Pouille 7-6, 4-6, 7-6, 7-6
  • John Millman defeats Mikhail Kukushkin 6-4, 4-6, 6-1, 6-3
  • Marin Cilic defeats Alex de Minaur4-6,3-6,6-3,6-4,7-5

Federer has been professionally questioning of Kyrgios’ often unusual, mercurial on-court antics during the Open. He very dispatched Kyrgios with the type of cool talent and professionalism that the young Australian would do well to emulate. One of Federer’s greatest shots in the match was an around the post outside the lines return for a clean winner that left Nick stunned at the athleticism of it all.
Marin Cilic was taken to five sets in the last match played last night at the Open.  Matches had run long all day, and Cilic not only needed five sets to defeat the younger de Minaur, he needed until  just past 2:00AM (Sunday morning) to do it. Late night matches are unique to the U.S.Open and just one of the gauntlets a player has to run to win a championship.
Women’s Singles:

  • Maria Sharapova defeats  Jelena Ostapenko 6-3, 6-2
  • Dominika Cibulkova defeats  Angelique Kerber 3-6, 6-3, 6-3
  • Carla Suarez Navarro defeats  Caroline Garcia 7-5, 4-6, 6-7
  • Marketa Vondrousova defeats N Kiki Bertens 7-6, 2-6, 7-6
  • Madison Keys defeats Aleksandra Krunic 4-6, 6-1, 6-2
  •  Naomi Osaka defeats Aliaksandra Sasnovich 6-0, 6-0

Maria Sharapova remains the Queen of the Night at the U.S. Open. She has never lost a night match. Last night, she beat Jelena Ostapenko to keep a very incredible streak alive.
Tournament favorite Madison Keys came back from a first set loss to win in three over Aleksandra Krunic.
One of the top pre-tournament favorites, Angelique Kerber also went down; after winning the first set, she lost the next two to Dominika Cibulkova. Kerber has not been in top form at the Open and just could dial her game in time to avoide defeat.
