Best Draw Ever....

[RiosTheGenius]

I was just trying to think of a single event in which there were all the best players I can think of within the same age frame. and the US open 1998 comes to mind.... can't think of a better draw. even Hernan Gumy is there. Krajicek, Ivanisevic, Rosset, Bruguera, Sampras, Agassi..... Rafter of course..... they were all there.

Just click here and scroll down to the round of 128 so you can see all the names:

I'm not sure why you are ripping Kevin's advice... this topic would generate a lot more discussion in the Pro Player area.

As to your question, I'm not sure what you mean. Just about every Slam has a deep draw with big names. Slams that bridge across generations typically have the most... for instance, the 1989 US Open. Here are some examples of great players that were in that one:
