Casualty Watch
JENNY
Hi TP – would it be possible to have a permanent Casualty Watch on the Top Bar? All the tours can be under one thread. I’ll do my best to keep it alive, I’m sure others will too. What do you think?

Hi M, I don’t know what was wrong with John, but I thought you would be interested in this thread. You did thank me of course, but there was no need, I thought it would be useful. It will also give some reasons why players drop rank, no.

Thanks so much — you know I wanted Soderling beaten. Especially by a Spaniard. *sigh*

M said
Argh. That was a long match, too. Sorry, Jenny.
Jenny said
Thanks M. Trouble was we couldn’t see what was happening out there and there was a very long break near the end of the 3rd set 30-30 which David won, so we don’t know if there was any med treatment going on to either player. I knew after he lost the 4th set there was a problem and you know he fights for everything. Anyway Rafa’s doing fine, [smile] it’s on TV, and Fena’s through [another smile] which I did see also.

But she wasn’t the only one that had a tough first round, Venus and Dinara had to dig deep before they pulled out wins.

JJ heard her grandmother died the day before her match, and I believe her mother has been ill too, so no surprises there.

NEW YORK — American teenager Melanie Oudin has upset No. 4-seeded Elena Dementieva in the second round of the U.S. Open.
The 70th-ranked Oudin, of Marietta, Ga., came back to stun Dementieva 5-7, 6-4, 6-3 Thursday in Arthur Ashe Stadium.
Dementieva was the 2004 runner-up at the U.S. Open and French Open and won the singles gold medal at the Beijing Olympics last year.
The 17-year-old Oudin, meanwhile, never had won a U.S. Open match until this week. She never had won a Grand Slam match until reaching the fourth round at Wimbledon this year.
Now Oudin will face three-time major champion Maria Sharapova or another U.S. teenager, Christina McHale, in the third round.
Top-seeded Dinara Safina, meanwhile, survived a second upset bid in as many matches at the Open, overcoming 15 double-faults to pull off another comeback victory over a low-ranked opponent.
Beset by shaky nerves and poor play, Safina managed to hold on to beat 67th-ranked Kristina Barrois of Germany 6-7 (5), 6-2, 6-3 Thursday in the second round.
That came after Safina barely avoided becoming the first No. 1-seeded woman to lose in the U.S. Open’s first round. She had 11 double-faults and 48 unforced errors in that match, a three-set win over 167th-ranked Olivia Rogowska.
Safina needed more than two hours to get through each match so far.
Information from The Associated Press was used in this report.

Tennis player Querrey hurts arm in freak accident
(AP) – 15 hours ago
NEW YORK — Sam Querrey cut his right forearm in a freak accident after practicing for the Thailand Open in Bangkok and will be out at least four to six weeks, the U.S. Tennis Association says.
USTA spokesman Tim Curry says the 21-year-old Querrey sat on a glass table after practice Monday and fell through, hurting his arm. The injury required emergency surgery.
A right-hander from Thousand Oaks, Calif., Querrey is No. 25 in the ATP rankings.
(Why oh WHY did he sit on a glass table!!!)
Jenny said
Oh, dear. Sorry about that. Sam, I think you’re a little too heavy sitting on glass tables!
Bettyjane said
Japan Open.
The world No3 still has problems with his left wrist, which he aggravated during Great Britain’s Davis Cup defeat against Poland last month.
World No1 Roger Federer had already withdrawn from the $1.3million tournament after telling organisers he needed a rest following a physically-demanding year.
A statement on Murray’s official website said: “Andy is disappointed not to be competing in Japan.
“But on the basis of medical advice, he has decided to give his left wrist further time to recover.
“His injury is improving on a daily basis and Andy is very close to resuming full training. The wrist will be assessed again this weekend.”
Murray, 22, is expected to return to action at the Shaghai Masters.
Jenny said
Tokyo
Murray withdraws – wrist injury.
Jenny said
Withdrawn Shanghai too – same problem.
Jenny said
Andy Murray has pulled out of Shanghai with continuing wrist problems. He thinks he may have tendinitis. He hasn’t overplayed with so many tournaments as others with this problem, so maybe he’s over-training.
M said
It does sound like he’s overtraining.
Andy’s always been a hard worker; I think he’s working too hard.
(This is also a little frustrating because, hello? Can he not see the effects of doing that right in front of him, in the #2 spot?)
Jenny said
Shanghai: Retirements – Haas, Del Potro [wrist] Roddick [knee?] – all in the first round.
Jenny said
Zverev – Wrist, stomach.
Joolz said
Turns out that he actually broke his wrist… The season is over for him. Better luck next year, Mischa.
monique said
OMG…they are dropping like flies???????????????
Sol said
Retired today:
Wawrinka (abdominal pain)
Monfils (?)
To quote Monique, the seeds are dropping like flies…
Jenny said
Thanks for the input Monique and Sol. Just a few updates to queries.
Monfils – Felt too sick and dizzy to carry on.
Haas – Shoulder, urrgh,
monique said
Add Jose Acasuso to the list……
Jenny said
Thanks Monique, I’d forgotten about Chucho, what was wrong with him this time?
Joolz said
Knee. Has had trouble with it since the US Open. Just read about it on an Argentine site.
Jenny said
Thnx. Poor old Chucho, he looks such a big strong healthy guy, another one who hasn’t had much luck physically.
Jenny said
Ivan Ljubicic – retired with Thigh/Groin injury in his match against Rafa. Sorry Ivan.
M said
See, that’s the thing about these injuries. They’re severe, and/or in very vulnerable spots.
Love to see Rafa advance, of course, but so painful to see Luby out injured.
P.S. Thank you all as usual for keeping this so up to date.
monique said
F.Lopez joins the others……it is getting worse and worse.
Jenny said
Makes 8 so far. Goodness knows what they’re going to be like in Valencia and Paris, I reckon they’ll need a trainer standing by on each court!
Alex said
i heard nalbandian starts again next month.
Jenny said
According to Julia [Joolz] who is ahead on things Nalby, she says he is playing two exhos in December. Unless of course things have changed since then. Frankly, I doubt he’ll be playing competitive tennis next month. He’s not long been gentle practising, strictly on med advice, so he wouldn’t be able to compete at a high level. I’m sure Joolz will keep us updated.
Joolz said
- And she still says exactly that.
Two exhos in Argentina in December, then Auckland as his first ATP tournament in January.

David Ferrer – doubles match with JC cancelled due to Ferrer’s hamstring injury and scan.
Jenny said
David F will play his second round singles match against Montanes on Thursday, I love your guts and brave heart, but you take care David – gosh, I really do sound like a mother!
Jenny said
Sad news, as just said by our comms. Ferru has had to withdraw. We’re not sure what the problem is, it was a left hamstring yesterday. He won’t play in Paris either apparently, such a rotten shame, the horrible, cruel side of tennis. I’m relieved he’s being sensible by preventing serious damage to himself, and because we don’t want to see him carried off the court mid match.
Jenny said
Now Tipsy is taking a med time out, looks like his leg too. He looks okay now, moving fine, so I’m not sure. This is Verdasco’s match to lose. ATP are you watching all what’s been going on, this is ridulous – ADDRESS THIS ISSUE NOW and stop burying your heads in the sand, cut back on mandatory tournaments, or whatever it takes.
monique said
A-Rod withdraws from Paris. Must be because of his knee.
.
Jenny said
He has also withdrawn from the Masters Cup citing a knee injury.
Sol said
Yes, I read that Roddick withdrew from London. That’s a shame. That’s the first time he misses a Masters Cup in, how many years? Do you know Monique?
monique said
Andy has been in the elite 8 for 7 consecutive years. For the 1st time, he will not be there.
