Stosur and Stubbs out of US Open doubles

Stosur and Stubbs out of US Open doubles

14 Sep 2009

Sam Stosur and Rennae Stubbs' US Open doubles campaign has come to an end at the hands of No.1 seeded pair Cara Black and Liezel Huber. The top seeds trailed Stosur and Stubbs by a set when rain postponed their women’s doubles semifinal on Saturday. The defending champions lifted their game as play resumed on a much nicer Sunday, rallying for a 5-7 6-3 6-1 win on Louis Armstrong stadium.

    :( Sams not playing in seoul i was looking forward to that but i guess what Audrey said makes sense
  • Audrey
    It's natural that Sam doesn't play in Seoul... the best is Hantuchova(22) and Sam is 14 I think it's understandable:)Sam plays with the top 10 now!!! :D please the come back of the forum it was great....

  • Jooo
    I'm really sorry for your loss girls..When you took the first set in Saturday I was excited and somehow I was sure that you were going to win that match!But then came the rain and I think that broke your rythm..:/ But don't get disappointed, you had an excellent year with Rennae with very good results!!:)Good luck now for the Doha championships and show them what you can do and why you deserve soo much a title,girls!!
    cheers!!
  • Simi
    I´m so sorry you lost the doubles semis. That rain interuption must have stolen your momentum against the nr 1 seeds! But stay positive, you had a great doubles campaign at the Open anyway...
    Enjoy the time with your family, have a good rest and good luck for the rest of the year!
    You rock!
  • summer
    Sam,

    You and stubbs are still the awesome doubles-pair. Never mind this setback, for now, have a well deserved rest! Best of luck in your upcoming tournaments!!
  • toni
    big bummer. I watched the scores on line and was sad about the loss and I then I went to play my doubles match today and played horribly...tough day for women's doubles!
    good luck in your next tournaments!
  • Drine
    So frustrating !!! :(
    You started so well yesterday and then this rain....I guess Black/Huber were too good today :(
    I'm sure you'll get this first title soon, both of you really deserve it :)
    Sam, enjoy the time with your family and good luck for your next tournament !!!
