The US Open will be the second Grand Slam of the year. And it comes after months of quarantine and a weekend after the Cincinnati Masters 1000. Several players are not in the draw, including 2 of the Big 3, Rafael Nadal, who chose to not come to North America, and Roger Federer, sidelined with a knee injury. But the field is still full of great talents, and promising new players. Plus, Novak Djokovic is playing. Who is the favourite? What will be the matches and draws sections to put in your must-follow list?
