The fourth and final Grand Slam tennis tournament of the year is upon us. The US Open begins in New York on Monday, Aug. 27.
On the men’s side, Rafael Nadal is the defending champion, and also won his 11th French Open title this year. Rivals Roger Federer and Novak Djokovic are in fine form, with Federer winning the Australian Open and Djokovic winning Wimbledon earlier this year. The other top seeds are Juan Martin del Potro and Alexander Zverev.
On the women’s side, Sloane Stephens will attempt to defend her US Open title but, unlike last year, she may need to contend with Serena Williams, who is back from maternity leave and seeded 17th. Rounding out the top four seeds with Stephens are Simona Halep, Caroline Wozniacki and Angelique Kerber.
