Federer Leads Agassi, Henman Pounding Dominator at Rain-Halted US Open

Tennis was finally played but not completed on the men's side at the US Open Wednesday night.

The rains halted play in the two men's quarterfinal matches, with world No. 1 Roger Federer leading Andre Agassi 6-3, 2-6, 7-5, and No. 5 seed Tim Henman looking to wrap things up against No. 22 Dominik "The Dominator" Hrbaty 6-1, 7-5, 4-5.

Both matches are scheduled to resume Thursday with a not-before-2 p.m. start, though the Thursday forecast is for more rain with the remnants of Hurricane Frances moving through.

In men's doubles quarterfinal play, No. 13 seeds Leander Paes/David Rikl downed unseeded Spaniards Feliciano "F-Lo" Lopez/Fernando "Hot Sauce" Verdasco, while the regular Spanish Davis Cup doubles team of Rafael "The Prodigy" Nadal/Tommy "The R." Robredo defeated fellow un-seeds Robbie Koenig/Travis Parrott.

Thursday's schedule (with a don't-hold-your-breath rain forecast) is (6) Agassi vs. (1) Federer (to finish), Haas vs. (4) Hewitt, (28) Joachim "Pim-Pim" Johansson vs. (2) Roddick, and (22) Dominik "The Dominator" Hrbaty vs. (5) Henman (to finish).
