Description

The second week is set at the US Open in Flushing Meadows, without Novak Djokovic or Carlos Alcaraz. Words we never thought we would be saying! Alexei Popyrin got his revenge after losing to Novak Djokovic twice at slams already this year. This means Novak Djokovic is without a slam for the first time since 2017 and the first time since 2002 that one of the Big 3 have not won a slam. 


Now that the draw has opened it up it presents a big opportunity for slam winner Jannik Sinner and Daniil Medvedev as well as home hopes Taylor Fritz, Tommy Paul and Frances Tiafoe to be the first US male winner since Andy Roddick in 2004! 


On the women’s side the top seeds had no trouble racing through to Week 2, with Iga Swiatek, Coco Gauff, Sabalenka and Paolini all breezing through to Round 4. Muchova and Wozniacki are on the comeback trail and have made it to the fourth round for the second year in a row despite not having the most time on court in preparation. 


Joel and Chris also look ahead to some of next week’s clashes and revisit their Tennis Weekly predictions and make new ones based on the form of the top players in Week 1 and the luck of the draw in New York.
