These highlights aren't in English, but in any language this was a great tennis match Wednesday night between the Williams sisters. Serena Williams barely edged her sister Venus is two tiebreakers to win 7-6, 7-6.
Venus had two set points in the first set, and eight in the second set, yet couldn't overcome her sister's resilience. Serena looks poised to win her third US Open.
Despite the occasional conspiracy theories that the winner is predetermined, the Williamses always put on a great show. Last night's contest definitely entertained the 20,000-plus in attendance at Arthur Ashe Stadium, but was it enough to make those of you at home notice?
Chances are slim. This comes on the heels of news that USA Network's ratings have plummeted over the last two weeks of showing primetime tennis. A 64% drop, in fact. Ouch.
Rafael Nadal had a brief scare in a match that started after 11:30 pm ET, losing the first set to American Mardy Fish. But took a bathroom break after that first set and returned to flush Fish in three straight sets.
Get ready for a great Roddick vs Djokovic match today.
