The final Grand Slam of the year, the US Open, kicks off today at the USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center. Use this thread to talk about the tournament, discuss players’ strategies, and live-chat matches.
Stuff to watch:
- Aryna Sabalenka is the current reigning women’s championship, but she is Slamless so far this year. Could this be her tournament?
- On the men’s side, top seed Jannik Sinner is aiming to be the first man to repeat as US Open champion since Roger Federer in 2008. Can he break the curse that Juan Martín del Potro’s 2009 win placed on the tournament?
