Merged the two threads together. Don't really think there is any need for a separate thread. This tennis thread was used during the Olympics when there was a Olympic thread and it's unlikely anyone is going to be speaking about different tennis during the US Open, so may as well just keep it going as one.

Fair enough

I have a feeling that Slava is going to do bad in singles I don't know why, but i think she'll crash out within the first 3 rounds. Lets hope she does something in doubles with King.

Womens quarters. I hope for something like...

Azarenka
Wozniacki

Serena
Kerber

Sharapova
Stosur

Kvitova
Radwanska

I dunno. I just thought of that. Wouldn't mind Kerber and Azarenka in the same quarter. They put on a good match at the Olympics

[Joel]

Hoping Murray, Tsonga or Del Potro takes the Men's title. And of course, I'll always back THE GOAT (Serena) for the Women's.

Can't wait for this to get underway. Love me some Grand Slam Tennis

Tsonga or Del Po yeah!!!

Murray

Before you ask, i'm not really a Murray fan. I wouldn't mind if he wins, but i'm not rooting for him.

Not too fussed who wins the womens tbh. I know that Shvedova doesn't really stand a chance, so i'm not too fussed

Federer vs Donald Young in the 1st round

Djkovic and Ferrer in same half, so that means Murray and Federer in same half. Tsonga is in Murray's quarter i think.

Federer
Verdasco
Fish
Simon

Almagro
Mayer
Querrey
Berdych

Murray
Lopez
Granollers
Raonic

Cilic
Nishikori
Chardy
Tsonga

Troicki
Kohlschreiber
Isner

Gasquet
Haas
Youzhny
Ferrer

Del Potro
Seppi

Shvedova vs King in the first round in the womens

Serena is in Radwanska's half, while Sharapova is in Azarenka's. Kerber in Radwanska's quarter. Thats the quarter Slava is in too

There's some tasty looking sections to the draw.

Aside from the Del Potro one they all look fairly competitive, but you'd still expect to see the top seeds go through. It does look like there'll be some exciting early round matches though if you look at that draw.

That's the boat I'm in too. Apart from my mum's boyfriend the rest of my family & mates all hate his guts. Tsonga's the one I root for in the men's, Nalbandian too.

[Nige™]

Heather Watson's been screwed unfortunately, drawn against Li Na. I couldn't give two shits about Keothavong and she'll be out against Kerber. Kirilenko/Scheepers should be a decent first round match and a potential upset with the way Scheepers has been playing this week.

[The Lady Killer]

Federer win plz

[nazzac]

Slava should make the 4th round at least here. She can beat all her potential first 3 round opponents. Serena may aswell get a bye to the semi's.

From the mens first round, Del Potro vs Nalbandian is a stand out match. Tsonga is in Murray's quarter, and Fed's half unfortunately. In fact Murray has a hard draw. Could face Raonic in the 4th round
