Rain Delays Key Matches At National Tennis Championship
Thunderstorms halted progress at Forest Hills on the opening day of the thirty seventh national singles championship. Only a few matches finished as Murray and Hilden battled through long rain-ruined rallies and near-elimination contests. Hall led 5 2 in the fifth when weather sent players and spectators to shelter, and several matches resumed later with complex turnarounds and dramatic scores.
