Props to Youzhny, he knew after the first 6 games that he had no chance to beat Djokovic so he decided to retire and screw his chances for the tournament. Good guy Mischa.

Sometimes I feel players are paid off to retire. What a coincidence Novak plays and looks like crap his first round and then his opponent withdraws in the second round. Why not just walk over to the final then? Then this in the third round? Corruption at it's finest.

Djokovic taking over Federer's 2010 Cincinnati draw:
Fed also played a guy who tried to be no 1 in 2006 and a fish in the final.

I can only imagine how Novak would have been attacked if he retired during a match. Now that his opponent retired, Novak is the one being attacked for going through without spending much time on the court.

Pity it ended this way and so quickly as well. Novak looked more comfortable and there were some nice points from both.

Has there ever been a stronger field at a US Open men's draw before? I very much doubt it.

2015 USO field...so strong. Injured Cilic in the semis of a major, Agut, Lopez, and Kohlschreiber providing the most challenge to the top 2, completely unfocused Stan....does it get any better?

We don't know yet if it will work for him or against him. It worked against him at RG 2011.

Actually I know a few players on the tour who have been offered money by the mob to deliberately lose. I bet the money to gain is even bigger on these types of matches. Don't act like it doesn't happen because it very well does. I'm not saying it happened here but it is questionable.

Look at it this way: still an opportunity to pound Nadal into submission for like the bazillionth time in a row... and then watch Stan get 3/4s of the way to the career slam?

Sure. Because Youzhny was such an odds on favorite for this match... You're funny

Well at least this time he does not have the crazy pressure of that insane streak and God Mode Federer playing the match of his life on clay.

Everyone is scared stiff of Novak. They start feeling faint as soon as he walks onto the court. That's the heavyweight champion of the world effect

As much as I'd love to see him win, he had trouble with a guy I've never even heard of last night. So unless he really picks it up, I don't see him making it past the Quarters.
