I do. He's playing against Fernando Gonzalez the number 28 seed from Chile. I think he should win that game.

Fernando who...? Never heard of him. I agree, Schalken can definitely win that game, shouldn´t be too difficult.

I've heard his name mentioned a few times, but I really couldn't give you any more information than that.

At the moment the he/she thing is playing against Capriati. The he/she thing is winning.

So, the he/she person is winning....with how much in sets ?

Yes she did win the first set, but then Mauresmo won the second on a tie break and then the third 6-3. Why are all my favourite players going out.

Currently Hewitt is thrashing Younes El Aynaoui 6-1, 6-5.

I heard it today, Capriati out. Too bad.
Hewitt beated El Aynaoui, he now has to play against Agassi.
That is going to be a really good game hopefully.

And later today also Schalken ofcourse

Semi´s women:
Mauresmo - Venus Williams
Serena Williams - Davenport

Hewitt .v. Agassi. I would like to see Agassi win that one, but whoever I want to win in the Open this year loses.

If Schalken gets through he is gonna be playing either Sampras or Roddick. I would personally like him to play Roddick cause he deserves to go far in a grand slam.

Agassi, Hewitt, I like both a lot. They are really good, I wouldn´t be surprised it that is going to be a 5-setter.

Sampras or Roddick.....THAT is competition. But first the other guy ofcourse

Sampras, Roddick, same as hewitt and Agassi, I like both a lot. Very good players in the quarter finals......logical ofcourse LOL

5 sets for the Agassi .v. Hewitt match would indeed be very interesting. It's a shame that the fifth set doesn't run unitl someone has a 2 game lead like they do at Wimbledon cause I prefer them to just play on until it's something like 14-12 in the fifth set. (hopes you understand what I said)

I would prefer to see Roddick win.

I totally understand what you said. And I also agree. That´s a disadvantage of the US Open. Also in the 5th set a tiebreak. At Wimbledon, Roland Garros and the Australian Open they play until someone leads with 2 games, which is more exitement.

Roddick, would be nice for him. Still young and is going to be a great and big player in the future (if he already isn´t). Because otherwise he wouldn´t have been in the quarter final ofcourse.

*Is pleased you understand* It's the only thing I don't like about Flushing Meadows.

I think he has the potential to be a big player, but his attitude problem just might hold him back.

Schalken is currently playing Gonzalez. Schalken is leading 5-4 in the first set. Looks like it's gonna be a close game.
