I didn't expect Qinwen and Daniil to get dominated like they were. Those that didn't participate in the Olympics are stepping up.
I want the championship final to be Pegula vs Sabalenka. I will definitely be rooting for Jess to win it all because Aryna already has 2 Grand Slam titles.
LOLPegula vs Navarro will be the dream matchup. But it wont happen. Sabalenka is too strong and Muchova is too crafty. Sabalenka vs Muchova for the final, much to the disappointment of US fans and ESPN.

This has to be not only one of the least compelling US opens, but of any Grand Slam that I can recall. I've watched a good chunk of this year US and I don't recall one epic match with a dramatic story line. Don't get me wrong there's been some good matches with decent tennis, but for a major it doesn't stand up.
Nothing that made me get super excited while watching or considered an upcoming match that was a "must see". I was hoping that Sinner/Medvedev would be a classic, but it was another dud. Just my opinion.

Did I hear the radio correctly this morning? The first time in 18 years an American is in the U.S. Open Men's final?
Nice call shack.
Jannik's supposed doping scandal has to be dealt with. He has psoriasis, the sunscreen he was using got into his system. It was such an infinitesimal amount it did not boost his performance. After the Simona Halep fiasco most players were reluctant to speak up. Most players, Shapo and Lovely Nick Kyrgios had to speak up.
Perhaps Shapo should be more worried about his galloping unforced errors and his inability to construct points than worrying about Sinner's sunscreen. As for Lovely Nick Kyrgios, it's a case of sour grapes...Anna Kalinskaya dumped him. He took it badly, shooting some nasty tweets in her direction. She had enough and shot back, "you're not a bad boy, just a bad person". Not the first time The Lovely One has lost gal pals to Italians, he lost Ajla Tomljanovic to Matteo Berrettini.
Shapo and Nicky can have a gooooood night.
Giacinto and Anna enjoying themselves on Sardinia's Emerald Coast. The same place where Fred Sirieix said, "make sure the glasses are always full, I want everyone drunk and having a good time".

I have to say that, even though he seems like a fine young man, Shapo is a cementhead who has not realized that you can't go for a winner on every shot. He has the tools to be a champ, but not the brains.
Ouch. Nick is an ongoing contradiction in terms. An extremely intelligent guy, but a loose cannon once in competition. Actually, he's not that far removed from Johnny Mac.
