Grand Slam US Open 2020

Have read that 11 players are deemed to have had close contact with Benoit Paire. They are all still allowed to play in the tournament. I'm thinking that number of players is too high to not allow them to play the tournament.

Lucky for Novak he's already had it! Maybe that's the plan! The forfeit Slam!

If Sevastova was playing as she did in previous years, where she has done deep in this slam, I would disagree.

but she isnt, so I would have Gauff as well.

Gauff at home for me a clear favourite. Market is wrong there.

Kerber a huge risk round 1. That wouldn’t completely surprise me.
 
What's happened to Dasha? Is she going to play at US Open?
think she is a social media influencer nowadays. posts a lot on twitter, mostly bagging out Yastremska.

But seriously, I think she is recovering from 2019. Both Injury and hunger. So much so, I think she posted that she prefers 2020 than last year. planning to come back soon
 
Maybe just me, but this is the most excited I've been about a us open in a long time. Working from home means I'll be able to wake up about 7, turn on the TV and put on the tennis. Then set up my laptop in front of the TV and work and watch the tennis simultaneously.

Honestly, I don't miss watching her play tennis
 
If you have Foxtel, you can use watchESPN to pick and choose any court to watch.

ESPN normally would show ESPN's feed on ESPN and Aussies on ESPN2 but because of so many american sports on atm it's pretty much going to be the ESPN feed on ESPN2. Looking forward to the early mornings.

What time do the matches begin AU time??
 
I'm going to lay Djokevic in this one. Yes he won the lead up, but only a few days between that and this tournament. I just think across the 5 set matches its so hard to maintain that consistent level without dropping one. I was really impressed with Raonic as my outside smokey, he could go deep and challenge. This is the best chance for either Thiem, Zverev, Medvedev or Tsitsipas to break through. I'll have a crack at Medvedev winning.

Ridiculously easy quarter for Novak to ease into the tournament. Kyle Edmund would probably be the most likely player to beat him which says it all.

Isner hasn't won a set against him in the last 5 years.

who I want to win the US, Pliskova, who is probably favourite to win in the weakened draw Serena, I cant stomach the idea but its hard to see who beats Serena
 
Gauff losing round 1 is a big suprise and a huge disappointment for the tournament.

As soon as I saw Scwartzman's opponent I knew he was in trouble too.

Praise the lord one less annoying American.

Now hopefully Serena loses

I'm over Serena but like Gauff. I think Gauff would have been good for the tournament and the hype, impressive youngsters and changing of the guard is exciting. She's much, much better than a 1st round exit player but obviously just wasn't good enough today.

I can’t stand the commentary over her in fact it drives me insane. Good result for my enjoyment

difficult match up against a seed. Sevastova is a crafty player, a rare commodity. You have to have a weakness as a 16-year-old.

Sevastova has only won 2 matches this year. One against Serena, the other just then

She's a nightmare opponent as she moves fairly well, her weakness is she goes to water too often, but this is a great result. She has a good draw as well. She's one of those "upset winners" that wouldn't be so shocking. Plays well at the US Open every year
 
Not so whats going on the telecasts. Kayo has some matches of the telecasted outside courts plus the world feed. bet 365 has all of them, which is grand.

Jordo won. 1/6 for the Aussies. a lot of the women seeds won today. struggling to think of an huge upset today. so much for crazy results. 11-0 for the seeds in the girls side

you sounded a lot more confident last night. looking at the scores alone, it was a match which could have gone either way. I am more disappointed we are not going to see Gauff v Marta Kostyuk. Would have been a huge highlight.

Rybakina got a good win. You think she could be very dangerous if she continues her pre-lockdown form.

I'm happy Gauff lost, dead set can't stand the commentary. Over the hype train already. I did expect Gauff to win though got that one wrong, happens. There will be a lot of upsets round 1-2 this year, players are coming off weird preps.

Agree on Rybakina a very dangerous player for a seed.

I know it's round 1 but Kvitova looked spectacular
