Day 4: American Youth

If not for the news I reported in the previous post, I'd have more to say about the activity on SW19 today, but you'll have to pardon my brevity.

WIMBLEDON, ENGLAND - JUNE 23:  Jesse Levine of USA plays a backhand during the men's singles first round match against Marat Safin of Russia on Day Two of the Wimbledon Lawn Tennis Championships at the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club on June 23, 2009 in London, England.

Jesse Levine and Melanie Oudin have made the third round of Wimbledon. I won't weigh them down with any labels, but it's wonderful to see young American players on both tours making ripples at the Slams.

See the open thread for more. It wasn't exactly a quiet day on the blog.
