NEW YORK -- Rain delayed more than three hours worth of action on the outer courts Thursday, but when the grounds dried, there was no shortage of memorable moments at the US Open. Here is some of what you might have missed:Quiet, please. The one drawback from the new roof over Arthur Ashe Stadium is the sheer volume. While the new cover shielded the torrential rain Thursday, the ambient noise was a distraction to players and fans. Andy Murray was the most vocal, saying We use our ears when we play. Its not just the eyes. Murray did concede the court did not play differently when the roof closed, as it does at Wimbledon. Read moreOne way or another, Nick Kyrgios finds a way to make headlines. Often, its with his foul mouth or antics, but Thursday, he thrilled the fans on the Grandstand with a new shot, perhaps a tactic he learned from Roger Federer. With Horacio Zeballos serving, the fiery Aussie rushed the service line and picked off the return for a clean winner. The shot, famously known as SABR (sneak attack by Roger) was just one of many things that went right for Kyrgios in the straight-sets win. WatchNo need to worry about Serena Williams. The top-ranked player in the world crushed fellow American Vania King in just more than an hour. Serena smacked 13 aces and never faced a break point. She did it in front of Beyonce and husband Jay Z, but more importantly, Serena said her shoulder felt fine. She is now five wins away from passing Steffi Grafs as the Open era leader with 23 Grand Slam wins.
