NEW YORK -- Rafael Nadals Grand Slam count will stay stuck at 11 for now, sidetracked by another knee problem. nike Free Online Schweiz. The third-ranked Spaniard withdrew from the U.S. Open on Wednesday. Tendinitis has kept him out of action since his stunning loss at Wimbledon in late June. The injury already forced him out of the London Olympics, where he was supposed to defend his title and carry Spains flag in the opening ceremony. "I am very sad to announce that I am not ready to play the US Open in NY. Thanks to my fans for their support and specially, the new yorkers," Nadal wrote on his Twitter account. Nadal is still only 26, but the withdrawals raise questions about the future of a player who has had recurring knee problems in the past. His 11 Grand Slam titles include a record seven on the red clay of the French Open, yet his hard-charging, hard-hitting style of play takes a toll on his body, particularly his knees. Roger Federer, in contrast, has played in every Grand Slam tournament since the start of 2000, a streak of 51 in a row. "Well, not a surprise, because I wrote him and he told me it wasnt looking good at all," Federer said after his opening match in Ohio in the Western & Southern Open. "I kind of knew, saw it coming. But obviously when its official, its disappointing for tennis, theres no doubt about it. I would love to have him in the draw. In particular, sort of the 12 days before the Open, you figure he might still have time to fix what he has to fix to get ready. If he pulls out that early before the Open, it must be something serious. "Thats what is sort of scary. There is obviously the whole debate going on if he is going to come back for this year. I hope he will. Hes definitely got some more weeks off now because of it. I hope in hindsight this is a very smart decision by him. But its obviously a big blow and disappointing news for the tennis world." In 2009, Nadal missed Wimbledon because of aching knees shortly after falling in the round of 16 at the French Open -- the only time in eight appearances he hasnt won at Roland Garros. He was just the second mens champion in 35 years to decline to defend his title at the All England Club. But Nadal eventually came back stronger than ever from that layoff. After failing to reach the final at the 2009 U.S. Open and 2010 Australian Open, he won the French to start a run of three straight major titles, capped by completing the career Grand Slam at Flushing Meadows. Nadals absence immediately leaves a trio of heavy favourites at the last Grand Slam event of the year: defending champion Novak Djokovic; five-time U.S. Open winner and currently top-ranked Federer; and 2008 U.S. Open runner-up Andy Murray, who won the gold medal in singles at the London Games by beating Federer in the final. "Its obviously a shame. I like Rafa a lot as a friend," Murray said after winning at the Western & Southern Open. "Yeah, Im disappointed for him. But I think for tennis and also a major competition, its a huge benefit when you have the top players playing. "Its obviously tough for him. Hes had trouble with his knees in the past. So I hope he can rest, he doesnt come back too early, and gets them fixed so he can get back to playing his best tennis." Nadal lost in the U.S. Open final to Djokovic last year, part of a stretch of three straight defeats to the Serb in championship matches at major tournaments. But he seemed to be closing the gap, and at Roland Garros in June, he beat Djokovic in the final for his record seventh title there. "My excitement is always the same when I am approaching any Grand Slam. Obviously its the biggest tournaments we have in sport," Djokovic said after winning his match at Cincinnati. "Yes, the fact is that tennis is going to lose a little bit because of Rafa not being there and playing, because hes somebody that has made a history of this sport. We all know how good he is and how popular he is." The good times didnt last long for Nadal after his historic win at the French. On June 28, he was upset by 100th-ranked Lukas Rosol in the second round at Wimbledon. He hasnt played since. Shortly after that loss, Nadal cancelled a scheduled charity match against Djokovic in Spain, citing tendon problems in his left knee. He also pulled out of the hard-court warm-up tournaments in Toronto and Cincinnati. The two-week U.S. Open begins play Aug. 27. "Rafa has informed us that he will not be ready to compete at the U.S. Open this year and has withdrawn from the tournament," tournament director David Brewer said in a statement issued Wednesday. "We hope to see him back on the court soon and look forward to his return to New York next year." Nike Free 3.0 Amphibious Laufschuhe Lila.

LOUIS -- The Los Angeles Kings dialed it back to their Stanley Cup run last spring, and put another beating on the St. Louis Blues. Jeff Carter scored twice for the first time since the Game 6 Cup clincher over New Jersey and the Kings didnt need playoff star Jonathan Quick in goal to shut down St. Louis in a 4-1 victory on Monday night. "Thats something weve been talking about, getting a lead and playing with a lead," Carter said. "We havent been doing that much this year. "Its not easy coming in here and playing these guys. Its a step in the right direction. Brian Elliott has been in net the last four games of the Blues five-game losing streak, a skid in which theyve allowed 26 goals. Elliott made 19 saves in a surprise start a day after Jaroslav Halak was activated from injured reserve, led the team onto the ice for the pregame skate and was listed on the game sheet. (Theres) "no going into the pregame skate knowing what youre going to be facing, so its a little tough," Elliott said. "But like Ive said, when you just get thrown into the fire sometimes its better. Youre not thinking about it, you just go in and play." Halak tweaked a groin strain and Elliott found out he was starting about five minutes before the opening faceoff. "I think everybody was in a little bit of shock," coach Ken Hitchcock said. "He had three really good days of practice and then, I dont know, somewhere in the warm-up he pulled it again." Hitchcock said hed know the extent of the injury in practice Tuesday. Backup goalie Jonathan Bernier was solid with 21 saves in just his second game of the season and first start for the Kings. Los Angeles outscored the Blues 15-6 while eliminating them in five games in the second round of the playoffs last spring en route to the Stanley Cup finals. "Ive been trying to keep my game at a high level," Bernier said. "Just trying to stay focused, thats how its been all year." Carter said Bernier "has been itching to get in there." "He made the saves when he had to and didnt give up any rebounds," Carter added. "He saw all the pucks, he did a great job." DDavis Drewiske made it 3-0 at 13:22 of the second period with his first goal of the season on a power play. Nike Free 3.0 V3 Laufschuhe Blau Dunkel Blau Weiß Alex Steen scored on a power play in the final minute of the second for St. Louis with Andy McDonald earning his 300th career assist. The Kings are just 4-5-2 and had lost three of four before beating the Blues. "The top guys need to put some goals in the net, and its no secret that weve kind of struggled at that," Carter said. "For us to win games, were going to have to get going here." The five-game skid is the first since Jan. 2-12, 2011, for the Blues, who began the season 6-1. Its their first five-game losing streak at home since Jan. 23-Feb. 6, 2010. "This is the homestand from hell," Hitchcock said. "We lost our goalie, we didnt play as well and now weve got to take this onto the road, and weve got to be much more accountable to each other." Carter tapped in a backhander on a break-in with Slava Voynov at 8:31 of the first, just the Kings fifth first-period goal of the season, then got behind defenceman Ian Cole for his sixth of the season early in the second. Drewiske was wide open in the slot off a feed from Dustin Brown. The Kings are 89-1-10 their last 100 games when leading after two periods, and got insurance on Jarrett Stolls second goal of the season that made it 4-1 early in the third. Voynov earned his second assist on the play. Elliott entered the game 3-4-1 with a 3.51 goals-against average and Hitchcock said after a 6-5 shootout loss to the Ducks on Saturday that hed start rookie Jake Allen against Los Angeles if Halak wasnt ready to go. Allen was assigned to Peoria, Ill., when Halak, 3-0 with a 2.10 goals-against average and two shutouts, was activated on Sunday. The Kings entered as the NHLs lowest-scoring team and matched their season best for goals. Notes: Carters last two-goal game during the regular season was March 3 against the Ducks. ... Attendance of 14,498 was the Blues lowest of the season, more than 4,000 shy of capacity. ... The victory was Berniers first since March 17, 2012, over the Predators. ... The Blues have scored on the power play in six straight games. ' ' '
