As soon as I write a post about Americans hoisting trophies in the summer hardcourt tournaments, the news all turns bad.   Roddick, Querrey, Isner and Fish all lose early in Washington. Roddick falls to 11 in the rankings, marking the first time since the ATP rankings began that there are no American men in the [...]

It’s not alway easy writing a blog about American men’s tennis (remember those Wimbledon predictions?) but the past two weeks have produced plenty of fodder, especially this weekend.  Sam Querrey wins his fifth title of the year, coming back on no less than Andy Murray.  The Bryan brothers set the all time record for doubles [...]

From Daviscup.com:  Novak Djokovic confirmed Serbia’s dominance over USA by beating Sam Querrey at the Davis Cup by BNP Paribas World Group first round tie in Belgrade. Playing in front of a passionate home crowd, Djokovic handed his team a commanding 2-0 lead on Friday. Despite a spirited fight back from Querrey in the third [...]

A new era for American Davis Cup has begun, and it will be up to John Isner and Sam Querrey to step up and fill the shoes of long-time Davis Cuppers Andy Roddick and James Blake who are sitting out the competition this year.   The tall twosome — Isner is 6’9″ an Querey 6’6″ — have a [...]

Half of the dozen American men in the Australian Open draw fell on the opening day.  Of the nine Americans in action in the men’s singles, three, including a trimmed-down Andy Roddick and No. 23 seed Mardy Fish, won.  However, six players from the U.S. came up short, including Sam Querrey.  He lost in straight sets [...]

Six of the 12 American men playing the Australian Open are bunched in No. 3 seed-Novak Djokovic’s quarter of draw, including two of the three seeded Americans, No. 7 Andy Roddick and No. 23 Mardy Fish. Most intriguing is the strong possibility of a third round matchup between Roddick and unseeded Sam Querrey, who with a current ranking [...]

The Americans put up a tremendous effort Friday, with Sam Querrey pushing No. 1 Rafael Nadal to four sets and Roddick losing in a heartbreaking five-setter to David Ferrer, dropping the final set 8-6.  The Roddick-Ferrer match was a brilliantly played contest, with both players hitting 80 winners each and making only 55 or fewer [...]

Sam Querrey won the first set against the world No. 1 in his Davis Cup debut but that was the end of the red dirt road for him.  Rafael Nadal ultimately won 6-7 (5), 6-4, 6-3, 6-4 in the first match being hosted in Madrid’s famous bullfighting arena.  See the Associated Press story for more [...]

The key to the U.S. upsetting Spain on their home red dirt in a Madrid bullfighting ring will not be the seemingly impossible task of knocking off world No. 1 Rafael Nadal, the reigning king of clay.   The key for the U.S. team — acknowledged underdogs despite being the 2007 defending Davis Cup champions [...]

James Blake has pulled out of the Davis Cup match against Spain in Madrid Sept. 19-21, and team Captain Patrick McEnroe has replaced him with Sam Querrey — not the higher ranked Mardy Fish. “James is just physically and mentally exhausted after a grueling summer,” McEnroe said. “He said he needed a break and we [...]
