Reason to watch.

The days have long passed since we were spoiled by an all-American final in our nations tennis championship. The time of Agassi and Sampras dueling under the lights of Ashe Stadium has given way to a period of mediocrity for the American men, earning a combined 1 major title since 2003. The recent emergence of a talanted generation of young athletes however, has American tennis poised for a turnaround. Remember a name like Sam Querrey, a likeable 6'6"California kid who is shooting up the rankings and bringing comparisons to the great Todd Martin. This years Open features 3 Americans who battled for a spot in the second week, Querrey being one of them. Andy Roddick, the only American left with a Major title has served his way to the final 16, and is looking strong to make a push for his second championship in New York. Don't lose hope in American tennis just yet. While Agassi vs Sampras will likely never be matched, the next generation of American champions is just around the corner.
