Roger Federer had a little bit of trouble playing against former world number one and Grand Slam champion Lleyton Hewitt as he lost the first set 64. The next three sets Federer made a few changes to his game plan and eventually won it in four although he was far from his best today. The score was 46 63 75 64 and Federer will head to the fourth round where he will play either James Blake or Tommy Robredo.
Andy Roddick experienced one of his worst defeats at the US Open today as he was defeated by another American John Isner. The match was a five setter and Isner took his opportunity in the last set tiebreak when he won it 7-5. It was one of Isner's best wins to date and he will play Fernando Verdasco who beat Tommy Haas in a five setter as well.
Other winners today were Novak Djokovic who beat American breakthrough 26 year-old Jesse Witten in four sets, Nikolay Davydenko and Robin Soderling.
