Mardy Fish has pulled out of US Open with a rib injury. He reached the quarterfinals last year, so he won't be able to defend a lot of points. The American was seeded No.25 and was scheduled to play Daniel Koellerer.
The Austrian, known for his scandalicious behaviour on court, will now play another crazy man - Rui Machado from Portugal. We already feel for the chair umpire, who will be in charge of that match. There will be a lot of code violations...

It was the best news for Machado!!... C´mon Machado!!! :)
Tennis is a game played between two players or between two teams of two players. Players use a stringed racquet to strike a hollow rubber ball covered with felt (most of the time of bright yellow colour) over a net into the opponent's court.
The game originated in Europe in the late 19th century as "lawn tennis", but its roots go back to the ancient racquet sport of "real tennis", which itself evolved from an earlier ball game played around the 12th century in France.
The term "tennis" derives from the French word tenez, which means "take it" — a warning from the server to the receiver.
