US Open - The big triple is the favorite, two Hungarians on the main board

In the men, the trio, also known as the Grand Triple, won 46 of the last 54 Grand Slam tournaments, the top of which was Federer 20, Nadal 17 and Djokovic 13 trophies. The 37-year-old Swiss superstar started the season with the Australian Open, then celebrated in Rotterdam and Stuttgart and is currently on the 33rd 5th scale.

Nadal (40/3) in the world and in New York 11. Roland Garros did not find any defeat in Monte-Carlo, Barcelona, ​​Rome and Toronto while returning Djokovic (33/10) with Wimbledon and Cincinnati success after health and mental problems has risen from the field. The three-time GS champion Andy Murray joins them - for the time being unlucky - who is still far from the top form after his hip problems.

Alexander Zverev is the surprise of the others: 21-year-old German is fourth in the ATP ranking, this year he has collected three cups, and a few days ago, legendary Ivan Lendl is also helping to prepare.

In the women, the 23-year-old GS champion Serena Williams is gradually returning to World Wide, according to Wimbledon's finals. The 36-year-old was only 26th in the WTA rankings, but New York organizers recognized their merits and six US Open trophies with the 17th highlight.

The biggest chance of the race is not this, but Rumanian Simona Halep, who is a world leader with "street length" and, more than expected, but has collected his first GS at Roland Garros. He also won in Montreal and Sencsen, and last time in Cincinnati, he won the Dutch Kiki Bertenst in the final.

The US open champion will have the chance to win the defending champion and Roland Garros finalist Sloane Stephens, Australian Open Caroline Wozniacki and fresh Wimbledon winner Angelique Kerber. Of the other top players, the Spanish Garbine Muguruza with two GS trophies is out of shape, and two times in Wimbledon, Czech Petra Kvitova struggles with shoulder injuries.

In the doubles, world-class Tímea Babos (40th) did not go lucky in the drama, as Russia's Darja Kaszatkina, the 11th, will be his opponent. The 25-year-old Hungarian has lost in the last two tournaments in the opening round and has won only two matches since mid-May. Last year at the US Open in the second round of a big battle from Marija Sarapova, he has a defending rank.

In the men, Márton Fucsovics (40th), after a lot of qualifying attempts, started playing for the first time in 2017 on a Grand Slam Main Event and was in dramatic 5th meeting against French Nicolas Mahut. This year it will be much harder to do as the 13-time Grand Slam champion Serbian Novak Djokovic is waiting for him in the opening round.
