With the crazy rankings this year, there should be more upsets. Who will still be around Wed? What US player has best chance at US Open WC? Do you think any of the players who were on SF teams will have the stamina to win 6 singles matches to win the championship?
So far only one top 8 seed fell-#7 Monday, freshman from Tenn but several seeds had tough 1st rounds:
#1 Liam Draxl was down 5-6 in 3rd vs McNally who had a matchpoint, and then McNally was up in TB before Draxl prevailed
#4Vacherot was down a set and 2-5 before recovering to beat AZ freshmen Gustaf Strom in 3 setter
#6 Riffice had a close 3 setter with Ponwith
#8 DeCamps of UCF had a close 3 setter with Braswell of Texas
The two seeds that breezed through their opener were #5 Vale 1, 0 vs VA freshman Van Schulenberg and #3 Hady Habib (2,1) vs Tulane opponent
