Hello and welcome to Day 12 of the US Open.  Only one session today, but I think it has to be one of the best tickets to be had the whole year.  The men's doubles final kicks things off, this time with a hugely anticipated match between the Bryan Brothers and the incredible team of Rohan Bopanna and Aisam-ul-Haq Qureshi, who I talked to back in Washington, and who now are making huge headlines in India and Pakistan.  And after that, the two women's semifinals are to be had, both of which should be real nice contest.

As per usual, follow my thoughts on the day via Twitter, @DailyForehand .

Hello and welcome to Day 7 of the US Open, the first day of second week (fourth round) action for the women and the conclusion of the men's third round.

Should be some great stuff today, for sure.  John Isner and Sam Querrey take on higher ranked but beatable seeds, former #1s Ana Ivanovic and Kim Clijsters battle on the women's side, and Rafael Nadal takes on Gilles Simon, an opponent he could easily bench press.
