>>> IT IS TIME FOR WHAT TO WATCH. THE THIRD ROUND BEGINS IN THE U.S. OPEN AFTER BIG UPSETS YESTERDAY. ON THE MEN'S SIDE CARLOS ALVAREZ LOST IN STRAIGHT SET TO 70 FOURTH-RANKED DENZEL LIVE FROM THE NETHERLANDS. THIS WAS THE END OF HIS 15 MATCH GRAND SLAM WINNING STREAK. NAOMI OSAKA ALSO WAS KNOCKED OUT IN HER U.S. OPEN COME BACK. THE TWO-TIME WOMEN'S CHAMPION LOST IN STRAIGHT SETS TO CARE LENA PULLED OVER. FOR MORE ON THE U.S. OPEN THIS IS A TENNIS WRITER FROM THE ATHLETIC JOINING US. THANK YOU FOR JOINING US. SO WHAT HAPPENED? CAN YOU GIVE US THOSE DETAILS? >> ON A SAMSUNG TO PROCESS THIS. YOU CAN OFTEN HAVE A ROGUE SET WHERE HE LOSES THE FIRST AND IT'S ANOTHER ONE OF THOSE WONKY LEVELS AND HE'LL GET IT TOGETHER. THEN HE LOST THE SECOND AND WE SAID THIS WAS GETTING SERIOUS. WHAT'S GOING ON? AND THEN IN THE THIRD HE JUST COULDN'T GET IT TOGETHER. HIS MISSING SHOTS AND TRY TO GET HIMSELF GOING AND GETTING THE CROWD PUMPED UP AND BUT HE WAS PLAYING A RATHER INSPIRED OPPONENT AND THIS WAS JUST ONE TOO MANY THEY COULD NOT DIG HIMSELF OUT OF. >> I AM NOT A HUGE TENNIS PERSON BUT WHAT I LIKE ABOUT THE U.S. OPEN IN PARTICULAR IS THAT YOU NEVER KNOW WHAT YOU ARE GOING TO GET. THERE IS NO GUARANTEE THAT THE SUPERSTAR IS GOING TO BE TAKING IT ALL THE WAY TO THE END. >> ABSOLUTELY. AND THE U.S. OPEN MORE THAN ANY GRAND SLAM IT'S THE LAST OF THE YEAR SO PLAYERS CAN BE QUITE TIRED THERE'S SOMETHING ABOUT NEW YORK BEING QUITE FRENETIC. SO IT DOES THROUGHOUT THE SHOCKS. BUT EVEN WITH THAT IN MIND IT IS KIND OF BLIND SIDING EVERYONE BECAUSE IT WAS SUCH A BIG GAP IN RANKINGS AND FORM. TRULY A HUGE SHOCK. >> WHAT ABOUT NAOMI OSAKA? SHE SEEMED REALLY FOCUSED AND NOW IT'S SORT OF FIZZLING OUT? >> THIS WAS A GREAT MATCH I FEEL AND THEY PLAYED REALLY WELL. BUT I THINK IT WAS QUITE A LOT LESS SHOCKING BECAUSE OSAKA HAS BEEN COMING BACK THIS YEAR AFTER MATERNITY LEAVE AND IT'S BEEN A BIT UP-AND-DOWN. SHE PLAYED SO WELL IN HER FIRST ROUND MATCH BUT IT WAS A REALLY ENTERTAINING CONTEST. IT LOOK LIKE WE'RE GOING TO GET A THIRD SET BUT SHE COULDN'T QUITE GET THERE. >> ME ANOTHER MAJOR HIGHLIGHT FROM DAY FOR? >> FROM DAY FOUR. I'M TRYING TO THINK DIANA SCHNEIDER IS ONE TO LOOK OUT FOR ON THE WOMEN SIDE. A REALLY GOOD PLAYER SHE'S KIND OF SNEAKING ALONG WELL AND IS ANOTHER PLAYER FOR THE FUTURE BUT ALSO FOR THE PRESENT AT THIS TOURNAMENT. >> ANYONE ELSE? >> WELL, SHE IS DEFINITELY ONE THAT STUCK OUT. I'M TRYING TO THINK IF THERE WERE ANY OTHERS. I MEAN NAKASHIMA IS ONE OF THOSE AMERICAN GUYS IS VERY UNDERRATED. HE WAS PLAYING DOUBLES YESTERDAY AND IS BACK IN ACTION IN SINGLES TODAY. SO THERE ARE A FEW THAT MAY BE JUST BELOW THE SURFACE. SO KEEP AN EYE ON HIM ESPECIALLY NOW WITH ALVAREZ OU
