Rain hits again at US Open

Nikolay Davydenko of Russia held a 6-1 5-7 6-3 lead over 17th-seeded Brit Andy Murray before rain suspended play at the US Open.

British number one Murray, seeded 17th in the men’s singles at Flushing Meadows, had just gone two sets to one down against the seventh seed at Louis Armstrong Stadium when rain caused a suspension of play that eventually led to his match being abandoned for the day at 5:18pm local time.
