2020 US Open General Discussion (ATP)

Top 32 have great view of the proceedings on Ashe.

Raonic and Krajanovic roughest R32 opponents for the top seeds From the 25-32 seeds. Opelka, Sinner, and Murray dangerous floaters. Korda, Nakashima and J.J. Wolf the best talents in the wildcards. Not sure if any of them Sock level talent. Nakashima was very impressive earlier this year and Korda has great athletic pedigree with two sisters winning on the LPGA tour. Struff, Shapo, Goffin, Khachanov, Rublev, Berrettini, Isner, and Evans in good form.

Djoker will win. Nothing to discuss. Path does not matter. The only question is who he plays in the final.

court is too fast. he will get blown out by power players and serve bots. heck even Opelka may beat him, mark my words. upset city

Nah, Opelka is hurt anyways. Djoker is enjoying the speed.

Try this on for size. Dream Djoko draw, nightmare for his fans.:
Murray R1
Sinner R2 (or Anderson on fire)
Krajinovic R32
FAA R16 (or De Minaur on fire)
RBA QF
Tsits SF
Mad Lad F (or Thiem on fire)

 

[Meles]

Luke Shapovalov cakewalk draw:
Nagal R1
Sock R2
Paire R32
Berretini R16 (or Ruud)
Tsitsipas QF
Khachanov SF
FAA F (or Thiem post Medvedev)

 

[James P]

Draw tomorrow iirc

 

[Meles]

So many horror draws for Thiem Mad Lad and Tsits in separate halves So potential final. Rublev in a good spot like Shapo in the 9-12 seeds. If FAA actually made R16 and drew Tsits well that would be funny given the space in Tsit's head FAA has been sharing with Medvedev rent free. I would call Raonic a shoe in to displace Thiem from the 2nd spot should they draw R32 collision.

 

[Meles]

OK. I'm going to imagine the US Open more before its cancelled.

 

[Meles]

Raonic/Krajinovic dream draw:
First two rounds: easy fodder
R32 Thiem lol
R16 Garin (De Minaur/Evans worst case)
QF Scwartzman/Zverev(fresh off five set match)
SF FAA (tired)
F Berrettini

The incompetence of tennis right now is breathtaking just blowing every advantage. I’m still looking but I think you’re right.

 

[Meles]

Ceremony was on Facebook last year but USTA too lazy to do it this year

 

[Meles]

nothing live apparently, no video..according to NYT..see above

OP updated with draw

 

[I Am Finnish]

Tough 1e round for Zverev lol

 

[mike danny]

Who are Thiem's QF and SF opponents?

 

[Meles]

Not a bad draw. Mad weeds section is a little weak with Rublev they only heavy in that quarter plus of course Berry. Top seats are balanced enough. Thiem Has an easy start with Nagal and some other early matches like Cilic, but may pay the ultimate price with a quarterfinal with Rao Mug. Djokovic has the red hot Krajinović in his quarter.

 

[Meles]

Who are Thiem's QF and SF opponents?

I’d say likely rao mug and mad weed

 

[UnforcedTerror]

Who are Thiem's QF and SF opponents?

QF: RBA/Raonic
SF: Medvedev

 

[Meles]

Tough 1e round for Zverev lol

Anderson and then will likely Nakashima second round is actually horrible draw but then it’s pretty easy for him until he hits cc boss.

 

[Meles]

This Sham doesn't have qualifying rounds.

Has to be said fed would’ve loved these surfaces

F: Thiem/Medvedev

Novak

Pretty good draw

 

[Harry_Wild]

I looking forward to this years 2020 because I am giving ESPN+ another chance to provide multi-court coverage. I subscribed when ESPN+ was first release and about 50% of their headline courts did not have coverage(they would put out for example that Court 17 was such and such match to be at time). I kind of “boycotted” them but I going give them another try this year! It has transfer to ESPN3 channel! Got my money back!

 

[Breakpointerer]

Pretty good draw

Deffo should win this. We'll see how Tsits/Med/Thiem do if they can reach him.

 

[Meles]

Pretty good draw

I’m actually say it’s sort of a bad draw since all those players have been in the top 30 or higher.

This is because a lot of stuff is on ESPN3 which comes with a full cable package. Disney has done some good things but this really isn’t one of them. It’s quite confusing.

 

[mike danny]

QF: RBA/Raonic
SF: Medvedev

Thanks. Assuming Thiem even makes it that far.

 

[Jokervich]

Is it me or I can't see Medvedev anywhere here?

Bottom of section 6

Bottom of section 6

I'm really, really liking your Mad Weed's draw to SF. Hasn't lost a set to Rublev nor Dimitrov save a loss when he was a young weed at Queens back in 2017 when Dimitrough was formidable ( three sets.)

 

[Jokervich]

Now it's there. Did a Control + F earlier and it wasn't there. Thanks!

Section 5 is devoid of talent. It's Berrettini and Rublev, and nobody else. Wouldn't be shocked if Berrettini made that QF, hopefully versus Med obviously.

You are right! I forgot about ESPN, ESPN2&3. Just went off of their ESPN+ app! But still ESPN+ should have not listed the court and the time and match at all if they were not planning on covering it in their ESPN+ App. I am looking forward to the 31st to see if they have got their act together.

 

[I Am Finnish]

Which half starts first?

 

[prairiegirl]

ZVEREV drew ANDERSON round 1. So, he's out.

 

[James P]

ZVEREV drew ANDERSON round 1. So, he's out.

At a minimum, he'll be in a 5 setter early and often.
