New Haven WTA Winner

1 Caroline Wozniacki d 8/WC Nadia Petrova - 63 36 63

Let's hear it for Caro - as she wins her second title in less than a week.

Remember, she won in Montreal on Monday owing to the rains.

This is the 3rd straight year she has won the Pilot Pen in New Haven.

She also moves to the lead in the 2010 title race with 4.

Oh yea, & she won the US Open Series which could be big bucks in 2 weeks.

Caro is also heading to the USO as the top seed looking for her 1st Slam.

Novak Djokovic Pulls Out of Los Angeles Tournament

Bummer City. I was looking forward to stalking him this week.

Novak pulled out for 'personal reasons' - with all the weddings lately... Nah.

He is being replaced in the draw by Andy Murray who becomes the top seed.

Not a great way to start his US Open Series but here's his ad all the same:

Andy Roddick & Serena Williams talk Twitter

This is my favorite of the Olympus US Open Series ads. By far.

It really taps into Andy's self-deprecating sense of humor.

For the record Serena has 1,691,879 followers - Andy has 310,390.

Trust me, they are BOTH a lot of fun to follow on Twitter.

Roger Federer: "Don't try this at home...."

The Olympus US Open Series creators have outdone themselves this year.

Loving (and missing) the 'fun' Roger...

Rafael Nadal Shares His Recipe For...

Pasta & gambas.

The US Open Series ads seem to get better every year.

Hey, what ever happened to Andy's mojo? Never mind, that was AmEx.
