.helenenothelen on the U.S. Open: 'Let the madness begin, in all its noisy glory.'
Serena Williams remains one of the best players in tennis, but she’s running out of time when it comes to breaking Margaret Court’s Grand Slam record.“And I think you just adjust to it. You adapt to it. You accept it. You embrace it. I do embrace it because I think it’s good for our sport to have various different atmospheres on the center courts of four different slams that are very unique and obviously the biggest events in our sport.
Nadal is in the opposite half of the draw from Djokovic and Federer but was cautious about whether that will give him an edge. “Let’s see if I am able to do my work for my side,” said Nadal, who routed rising Russian Daniil Medvedev to win the recent Rogers Cup tournament. “I have to win my matches to have an advantage because I only can meet them in the semifinals.”
None of the potential contenders is American. That’s nothing new: no American man has won the U.S. Open since Andy Roddick in 2003. The only American men to reach the last 63 Slam finals are Roddick and Andre Agassi . The highest-seeded American this year is injury-plagued John Isner at 14, followed by No. 26 Taylor Fritz of Palos Verdes.
