Tropical Storm Hanna struck an overhead slam at the U.S. Open, postponing one men’s semifinal and forcing the women’s final off its usual Saturday date for the first time in 34 years.

With whipping wind and rain moving up the Atlantic Seaboard, the title match between Serena Williams and Jelena Jankovic was shifted from Saturday night to Sunday night.

“I’ll be ready for Sunday, Monday, Tuesday,” Williams said. “Doesn’t matter.”

The men’s final was rescheduled from Sunday afternoon to Monday afternoon. It’s the first Monday final for the men at the Open since 1987, when Ivan Lendl defeated Mats Wilander.

He barely noticed the dolphins leaping over his head. Suddenly the shark released him. Fighting to stay afloat, Endris thought he saw the dolphins form a protective wall between him and the great white.

He had heard about a common practice in Taiji, Japan, where dolphins are herded into small coves and slaughtered to be sold at fish markets. Hoping to do his part to protect them, he joined several organizations dedicated to their preservation. “I tell my story now to anybody who will listen because I want people to know how truly remarkable dolphins are,” he says. “They’re as smart as humans, and I believe they’re capable of empathy. When I was being attacked that day, maybe they were trying to protect their young or acting on instinct. But they drove the shark away. If they hadn’t, there’s no doubt in my mind it would have come back.”
