Us Open No day-2: Rain cancelled the show. Who benefits ?

“Hot sticky scenes you know what I mean
Like a desert sun that burns my skin
I've been waiting for her so long
Open the sky (and let her come down)
Here comes the rain I love the rain
Here she comes again
Rain...
Rain...
Rain...”

Those are the lyrics Ian Astbury, founder and singer of a band named “The Cult”, sung in the middle eighties. Did anyone do the same yesterday at Flushing Meadows ? Not the tickets purchasers. Definitely. Now let’s try to look for players who benefit from the yesterday’s rain. The rain cancelled both of the sessions, therefore several players have one more day off, to take a rest. The oldest and/or injured ones like Agassi and Lindsay, really need it. Even the players who are in jam usually bless the rain, like Mauresmo did yesterday. But is rain delay a real advantage for these kinds of players? Not always and not at all.
Making an example: Andre and Lindsay are gonna play their 2nd round on Thursday. That’s good. But then if they win, will have to play 3rd round on Friday? No more advantage if they are gonna play back to back matches from 2nd to 3rd round. And we can stop here, ‘cause the matter is so boring.
The only certain thing is that we have a loaded schedule today, which includes 80 matches, with 73 singles matches.
