The U.S. Open 2010 tennis tournament began today from Flushing Meadows in New York and the last Grand Slam tournament of the year looks set to be as thrilling as ever with some great play to look forward to. If you don’t want to miss a moment’s action take the links here to the TV schedule or details for free online live streaming.
Today homegirl, Melanie Oudin, started her campaign in great style beating opponent Olga Savchuk in their first-round match, 6-3, 6-0. Oudin came to prominence at last year’s U.S. Open securing her way to the quarter-finals in only her second appearance there. This year saw the American off to a good start, winning in just 56 minutes, according to Hal Spivack over on Fanhouse.
In her post-match interview from the Arthur Ashe stadium 18-year-old Oudin said, “After I won the first set everything felt good again,” and also added how honored she felt beginning her tournament on Ashe. Oudin, from Marietta, Ga. ranked 44th certainly made it look easy, winning 79% of her first-serve points and 86% of her second-serve points. If she felt the pressure she sure didn’t show it.
