Holy crap.....another USA woman coming up in the ranks

[a kennedy]

Sloane Stephens, says Serena is her mentor....woohoo.....she's looking pretty good 3rd set, 4 - 1 over Tatjana Malek. Christina Mchale lost in the first round.....dang, but I'd say the USA has some pretty good women tennis players up and coming. and Sloane is only 19!!! Christina is only 20!!

[TBF]

1. She's been playing a couple years now and she's good -

are you listening to Andy right now?

2. Yes.....it's sad, always wished he could have done better.....

but with Rodger and Rafa around..... couldn't get to the #1 level. Good press conference for him.....would like to see him go out a winner. edit to add stuff.

[TBF]

3. Sloane has Ivanovic next - will be rooting for her

but she's a tough opponent ..

4. here she is.....up one set, down one set, and working the 3rd set....

come on Sloane kick her arse....and I do like Ivanovic, just now now.....

5. come on Sloane Stephens.....

She's doing a pretty good job.....come on Sloane!!!!

[a kennedy]

6. and dang it......Sloane lost in the 3rd round.

Dang it..... She and Christina are up and comers....USA, USA, USA.

[TBF]

7. Yes I like them both - nice to see some new USA talent.

and great effort from Sloane
