Well, the USTA is nutty. They've got Lindsay Davenport playing Monday afternoon--and Justine Henin-Hardenne playing first on center court. Why not give them an extra day or two to settle in? I mean, come on, the first round is played over 3 days! Grrr.
Andre Agassi begins (and hopefully doesn't end) his farewell to the Open tomorrow night at 7pm EST on center court, against Andrei Pavel. Roddick, Ljubicic v. Lopez, Vaidisova, and Gasquet are all playing Monday, too. Here's the schedule.
I'd be happy to see Justine lose first round, in part, due to fatigue (:-D) Of course I know that's not gonna happen.
With Lindsay, however, you'd think the USTA would be doing everything to ensure she can stick around as long as possible.
I thought I heard somewhere that Lindsay was supposed to get a later start to the tournament? It's pretty dumb to schedule her so soon considering the injury.
