G.O.A.T.
Jon Wertheim reviews each seed's chances going into the Open:


Highlights
-- Is Daniil Medvedev the favorite or even one of the favorites at the Open this year?
-- A win in Miami is a good predictor for doing well at the US Open (can anyone corroborate?)
-- The draw is open, the big 3 are missing or coming in undercooked, can Alcaraz take advantage?
-- Stefanos Tsitsipas will not have to face Alcaraz, and just picked up a win over Medvedev
-- Ruud is a Slam finalist, albeit on clay, and it's not mentioned, but he was a finalist in Misami
-- FAA needs to prove his mettle, is he satisfied with being just another NextGen top 10 player?
-- Love him or hate him, Norrie is on the rise. How far can his new skills take him in New York?
-- "HH is a player to watch", agree or disagree? Hubert loves the hard courts.
-- The once reliable gatekeepers Berrettini and Rublev have quietly deserted their posts...
-- Is the top American Taylor Fritz peaking just in time to lift the trophy on home soil?
-- Will Sinner "grind out" the big matches, and prove himself to be a Slam contender?
-- Will PCB be able to capitalize on his recent victory and past success in the Big Apple?
