 <title>Scores Today: No Surprises Yet</title>
 <link>http://www.observer.com/2007/scores-today-no-surprises-yet</link>
 <description><![CDATA[<!--paging_filter--><p>No surprises so far today. Martina Hingis and Lleyton Hewitt both won easily and Novak Djokovic is cruising. </p>
<p>A young American contender, Sam Querrey, lost easily in straight sets, so he won&#39;t join unheralded countrymen Donald Young and John Isner in the second round. </p>
<p>Pay attention to James Blake&#39;s match, which is playing out very, very tight early on. </p>
<p>You can track live scores<a href="http://www.usopen.org/en_US/scores/index.html"> here</a> on the very good (and very fast) Open web site, which we have in our blogroll here to the right.</p>]]></description>

 <title>Lleyton Hewitt: Back in Fashion?</title>
 <link>http://www.observer.com/2007/lleyton-hewitt</link>
 <description><![CDATA[<!--paging_filter--><p>Is former champion Lleyton Hewitt the dark horse of this year's open?</p>
<p>That's the talk around here this week and if today's match was any indication -- he rolled over University of Illinois grad Amer Delic in straight sets -- he's in his best form in years.</p>
<p>"When you feel confident within yourself, you're happy with where your game's at, you enjoy it a lot more," he said today.</p>
<p>Hewitt, a 26-year-old 16th seed, won his two Grand Slams when men's tennis was in a tattered state -- post-Sampras, pre-Federer.</p>
<p>Since the advent of Federer and Nadal, Hewitt was left in the dust.</p>
<p>"Roger or Nadal, they're consistent and they have the firepower," Delic said today. " I think that's where Lleyton gets lost a little bit."</p>
<p>But Hewitt has made the argument this year that his game -- he's arguably still the best serve-returner in tennis -- is coming back to form.</p>
<p>In his last Grand Slam at Wimbledon, he made it to the 4th round and lost a knock-down, dragout five-setter to Novak Djokovic.  And in a tournament in Cincinnati a couple of weeks ago, he brought Roger Federer the distance in a semifinal in which Federer needed two tiebreaks to win.</p>
<p>Hewitt, who last won at Wimbledon in 2002, thinks he's still got what it takes to win another Grand Slam.</p>
<p>"I believe that, yeah, it's in me, that's for sure."</p>]]></description>
