Name Of All Types Of Dogs

Little Dog Days

The same is true in tennis, where the tours—including the Corona-sponsored ATP tour—continue to grind their way across a very hot United States on their way to a presumably even hotter Flushing Meadows at the end of the month. The big dogs—Federer, Nadal, and Djokovic—have arrived on this continent and are beginning their hard-court preparations in Montreal. Meanwhile, their smaller colleagues have already moved on from toasty Los Angeles to lovely Washington, D.C., the city better known as a swamp. Was it a coincidence that the debt ceiling was scheduled to kick in on August 2, the last date that any sane human being would willingly put himself in the nation’s capital? That just happens to be the day when the men’s tour arrives. Unfortunately, one man’s highly intelligent move is another’s marketing headache. With Fish gone and Andy Roddick absent, Donald Dell and the other tournament organizers are left with a form of tennis double jeopardy for a U.S. promoter: They have a heavily European-ized draw, that doesn’t include the Top 4 Europeans. Not that we hardcore tennis types should be complaining. While it won’t tell us anything of import about the immediate future, or provide us with a leading man for the U.S. Open, D.C., with 500 points available and a 64 draw, is still the strongest  of the U.S. hard-court series events thus far, and, with the possible exception of Hamburg, the strongest since Wimbledon. There are good players and recognizable names here—Monfils, Melzer, Verdasco, Baghdatis, Nalbandian—as well as a few marketable Yanks, in Isner, Harrison, and James Blake, who may or may not be eliminated by the time you read this. There’s also Donald Young, who may or may not be marketable. How do you like Gael Monfils as a top seed? That name is a weird sight at the top of the draw. Weird as in weirdly unimposing; the freaky Frenchman is about as far from a sure thing for a No. 1 seed as it is possible to be. But his name is not nearly as weird as the one we see on the very last line of this draw sheet: Wayne Odesnik. The Unwelcome One made it in as a lucky loser after Fish withdrew. Does Odesnik count as a marketable American? I confess that I would like to see him play, especially against a fellow angry American, such as Ryan Harrison, who called him out earlier this season. But there aren’t any figures of rage near Odesnik. He starts with Radek Stepanek.
