Today the US Open has started. Expect two weeks of the best tennis, as it's the Final Grand Slam of this tennis season. Place to be is Flushing Meadows, New York, USA. Let's have a short preview on the favourites and what to expect:
Unfortunately, 2009 US Open Champion Juan Martin Del Potro won't be able to defend his title in Flushing Meadows, due to an injury that has sidelined him since the Australian Open in January. Rafael Nadal, the No. 1 in the world and current holder of Roland Garros and Wimbledon, is trying once again to win the US Open, the only Grand Slam that has eluded him so far. His recent form has been far from impressive, but we all know that Nadal has been targeting the US Open and he is likely to hit top form for the tournament. Other contenders are for sure Roger Federer, Andy Murray and Novak Djokovic. But as well Andy Roddick on his favourite surface. Hopefully he can beat the pressure. Another one which you can't underestimate is Robin Soderling, who can play perfectly on this hard court surface.
The women's final could see two former US Open champions meeting, with defending champion Kim Clijsters and two-time champion Venus Williams on one side of the draw and former champions Maria Sharapova and Svetlana Kuznetsova on the other. Also Caroline Wozniacki is one to look at as she's in a great form lately. Jelena Jankovic is also focusing to win this Grand Slam, so after all we can expect a great tournament in which (as usual) everything is possible.
