Tuesday at the 2012 U.S. Open was a rainy one, causing multiple delays throughout the evening session before eventually calling all matches. Let's recap the completed games, as well as those cut short.
On the men's side. No. 3 David Ferrer defeated Richard Gasquet in three sets, 7-5, 7-6 and 6-4. Andy Roddick, who will retire following his exit from the tournament, was tied 6-6 with No. 7 Juan Martin Del Potro as rain postponed the match. No. 2 Novak Djokovic led No. 18 Stanislas Wawrinka 2-0 in the first set before they were forced to leave the court. These two matches will resume on Wednesday morning if the weather cooperates.
On the women's side of things, No. 1 Victoria Azarenka needed three sets to defeat Samantha Stosur, winning 6-1, 4-6 and 7-6. Maria Sharapova began her match with No. 11 Marion Bartoli, although it was probably to her benefit. Sharapova will trail 4-0 in the first set entering Wednesday when play resumes.
