If you like comebacks ... you've got to like what Melanie Oudin has been doing in the U.S. Open (tennis, of course).
Against Elena Dementieva: 5-7 6-4 6-3 .
Against Maria Sharaopova: 3-6 6-4 7-5 .
Against Nadia Petrova: 1-6 7-6(2) 6-3 .
After she got stomped on in the first set, ageless Dick Enberg commented that Melanie had Petrova "right where she wanted her". Pretty darn remarkable.
Now she has to see if her magic can extend to defeat a woman whose first name doesn't end in " "a" and whose last name ends in a different vowel (Danish 19-year old Caroline Wozniacki).
We'll see. Quite a run, and quite a lot of fun to watch.
