However, arriving flights were still trying to catch up.Super Bowl Sunday got off to an inconvenient start for hundreds of passengers trying to get to Phoenix for the game.Lissner says the fog led to 30 arriving and departing flights being cancelled. Another 80 flights coming and going were also delayed. Travelers or anyone picking up passengers should still check their flight status with their airline, Lissner added.Kickoff for the match-up between the Seattle Seahawks and the New England Patriots was at 4:30 p.m. MST at the University of Phoenix Stadium in Glendale.Paul Coro, a sports reporter for the Arizona Republic, was supposed to be at what would have been his first ever Super Bowl experience. Instead, he has spent more than 11 hours at the Oakland Airport. The sports writer was covering a Phoenix Suns road game the night before and was supposed to be on a 6 a.m. flight back to Phoenix. But because of fog, his US Airways flight kept getting delayed and then cancelled. He was moved to a 12:30 p.m. flight that has since been delayed.I went from being able to attend my first Super Bowl to watching without sound on a TV in gate 8 of Oakland International, Coro said.Airline employees told him the problem now was the amount of air traffic at Sky Harbor, he said. US Airways spokesman Andrew Christie said the airline had 31 cancellations and 17 flight diversions as a result of the fog. The company was still in the process of trying to get customers rebooked on flights.Our employees are hard at work trying to re-accommodate their customers, Christie said. There are still delays now as we realign our crews, our equipment. All these pieces have to come into play.While Coro is used to dealing with travel delays because of his work, this is one delay that will sting for a long time.Now its making my gut turn a little bit, watching it on TV, Coro said.His assignment Sunday would have been to write sidebars on the Seattle Seahawks. Luckily, there are other co-workers at the stadium who can take over.Theyll be fine without me but I was looking forward to the experience of it, Coro said. Its not one of those things where you can say Oh well, therell always be next year.___Follow Terry Tang on twitter at https://www.twiiter.com/ttangAP Chelsea Jersey . - Mike Zimmer has brought a demanding style to the Minnesota Vikings.

Bouchard lost 6-2, 6-2 to Australian Samantha Stosur. The Canadian, ranked No. 8 in the world, played with her left thigh wrapped after straining her hamstring in practice this week. The injury left her visibly struggling with her mobility throughout the match. "Its obviously not ideal; Ive had to cut back a little bit on practice time, but I should be good to go pretty soon," she said. Bouchard said her personal trainer will join her in New York and said she does not expect the injury to have much of an impact on her performance at next weeks U.S. Open. Stosur, ranked No. 25 in the world, dominated the match, winning almost 70 per cent of the points on her serve, while breaking Bouchards serve twice in each set. "My serve is a weapon, and sometimes it doesnt act like that, so its important for me to really use that part of my game to my best advantage," said Stosur, who will play in her first quarterfinal since January. Wozniacki, the fourth seed, was beaten 6-4, 6-2 by Camila Giorgi of Italy. Giorgi, who also beat Wozniacki in last years U.S. Open, faced just two break points. Her first serves reached 117 mph and her second serves hovered around 107 mph. She consistently hit ground strokes at Wozniackis feet, preventing her from moving laterally. The 37th-ranked Giorgi broke Wozniackis serve in the first game of the match and twice in the second set. "I think today the serve was the key and really consistent," she said. It was the earliest exit at this tournament for Wozniacki, who has appeared in New Haven seven times. She won in each of her first four trips and lost in the semifinals iin 2012 and 2013.dddddddddddd Wozniacki is ranked No. 11 and was seeded fourth this year. But she also has been training to run the New York Marathon while keeping up a full tennis schedule. She said the cross-training has not been a problem, but acknowledged being tired on Wednesday. "I havent had a day off basically since I came to Montreal, so Ive been playing almost every day," she said. "The tank just wasnt full today and when you play a player like that you just dont get by with not moving 100 per cent." Giorgi will play Garbine Muguruza in the quarterfinals. Muguruza, ranked 26th in the world, needed three sets to dispatch qualifier Peng Shuai of China 6-2, 3-6, 6-3. Muguruza dropped the first two games of the final set, but won the next five games en route to the victory. "I was nervous because I didnt know what to do at that point," Muguruza said. "But I just said to myself, Just continue, because shes also going to get nervous or shes going to miss and not continue like this." Kirsten Flipkens of Belgium came from behind to beat Andrea Petkovic of Germany 4-6, 7-6 (4), 7-6 (6) in a match that lasted 3 hours, 11 minutes. Petkovic served for the match twice in the second set at 5-4 and again at 6-5, but could not close out Flipkins. Flipkins also had a tough time ending the match. She led 6-3 in the final tiebreaker before winning on her fifth match point. "I had to fight for it," Flipkins said. "It was one of the best battles of my career." Just one seeded player, second-seed Petra Kvitova, has advanced to the quarterfinals of the tournament. She won her second-round match on Tuesday and faces Barbora Zahlavova Strycova of the Czech Republic on Thursday. The other quarterfinal has American Alison Riske against Magdalena Rybarikova of Slovakia.
