Roger Federer had a rather lousy draw at the upcoming US Open. The seed no.2 will face Nick Kyrgios as early as in the 3rd round and then probably Djokovic already as in the quarters.
Federer doesn’t “like” to play Kyrgios as the Australian always gets “more focus” when facing the big fishes and when Nick is on, he is very tricky to play.
Djokovic has just found his form besides the fact that he has just won Wimbledon and Cincinnati, he got a lot of confidence after beating Rafael Nadal in the semifinal at the Championships and Federer in the final in Ohio.
Here the projected quarters
Nadal – Shapovalov/Anderson
Dimitrov/Isner – Del Potro/Tsitsipas
Cilic – Zverev
Federer – Djokovic
Here the full draw.
THAT WILL BE A CLASH! |
