How does the chase review work at the US Open?
The central court has ten cameras recording the ball at 52 frames per second. The computers in the broadcast booth compare each frame to the one before it, pixel by pixel, and filter out non-ball movements. Even then, the cameras are not likely to catch exactly where and when the ball hits the ground, so the computers take the feed from the five cameras on that side of the court and create the most likely ball trajectory for where the ball hit the ground. It is accurate to within 3.6 mm.

What brand of tennis racquet did Miloslav Mecir use in the 1988 men's U.S. Open semifinal?
It has a metallic green finish paint. It has a gold pinstripe that goes around it. The only words on the entire frame are , SNAUWAERT, MILOSLAV MECIR, & MADE WITH PRECISION IN BELGIUM BY SNAUWAERT & DELPA. It also has a couple of the "S" logos near the throat and the buttcap says "SNAWAERT" and so does the leather grip. It doesn't have any grip size listed although I would guess it is either 4 3/8 or 4 1/2.
The only other characteristic that I found interesting is that is doesn't have grommets and the frame has insets for the strings like old wooden racquets along the sides starting at just past 3 and just before 9 and continuing around the top of the frame.

What does a referee make at the US Open for tennis?
Well, if by 'referee' you don't really mean 'line umpire' or 'chair umpire', then I would say around 10k for the tournament depending on the level (there are deputy referees and then the head/tournament referee). line umpires make in the mid-100's range per day. For chair umpires, it depends on what level they are.
