While one woman from America was rejoicing, the other was wincing. Venus Williams took an ugly tumble during her match against Zheng Jie and also crashed out of the US Open, losing 3-6, 6-2, 6-7. Getty Images

And another American won't be seen on the court in action again. James Blake retired from professional tennis after his loss to Ivo Karlovic. He went down fighting, 6-7, 3-6, 6-4, 7-6, 6-7. Reuters

The delay also affected Indian Somdev Devvarman's match against Lukas Lacko. The Indian won 4-6, 6-1, 6-2, 4-6, 6-4. AP

Even Juan Martin Del Potro has a frustrating evening. He was miffed at his opponent's constant plea to get his knee treated, but eventually beat Garcia-Lopez 6-3, 6-7, 6-4, 7-6. Getty Images
