US OPEN: Who is it going to be this year?

Question

I have to put my money on Nadal although he is not my favorite...he just has this energy on him right now....it's amazing to watch...

As for the women....Lord, what an erratic year! I'm not sure....

Answer 1

Nadal has a great shot of winning the men's, because Federer is on a huge slump. Djokovic has the second best chance.

As for the women, one of the Williams sisters will probably win.

Answer 2

My top 4 candidates are (men)

1. Rafael Nadal  (in brilliant form)

2. Novak djockovic ( i think thats how you spell his name)

3. Roger Federer (duh)

4. Andy Roddick (has home advantage)

As for the women

The Williams sisters all the way

Answer 3

I'm putting my money on Djokovic, as 4 the women - Safina.

Answer 4

Roger Federer of course!!!he will make sure that he wins the US open and get back the NO.1 title!!!!!!

Answer 5

In the mens singles I think these players will do really well:

Rafael Nadal - OF COURSE! He's the new world number one, and he just won the Olympic gold! He'll come in with full confidence! And his hard court game's improved SO much! He's one of the major contenders.

Novak Djokovic - He's one of the strongest hard court players today. His serve's great and he has a brilliant chance to win it.

Roger Federer - I STILL think he'll do well. He won the doubles gold at the Olympics, and he'll probably HATE it if he loses more points. He'll give it everything he's got!

Andy Murray - He just won a major title by beating Djokovic. His hard court game's really good. He has a good chance!!

In the women's singles, I'm predicting these players to do well:

The William sisters - They're playing SO well, they won the doubles gold and its their home Slam!

Dinara Safina - She's in super form, and she'll go really far in the US Open.

Ana Ivanovic - She's the world number one, and she's definitely do great this year!

Jelena Jankovic - I love her game! She's one of the contenders for sure.

Answer 6

Men

1.Rafa(he's on fire!)

2.Djoko( he made it to the finals last year and did pretty good)

3.Fed( COME ON! The Fed Express, 4 straight US Opens)

Dark horse: Roddick( he's won it before, been to the finals a second time and he skipped the Olympics to prepare)

Women

1.Serena( she's been so solid this year, and she really wants another slam you can tell she wants another one badly)

2.Safina( she's the hottest player, but she needs to get errors and double faults down, other than that she can kick butt)

3.Venus( she's won it twice, did well last year, and I really want another Williams sister's final, it's the perfect match to me,LOL)

Dark Horse: Dementieva, Jankovic

*Dementieva just won a gold medal so she's on a good roll but she needs to learn how to get a lead in a match and keep it*

*Jankovic she did well at the USO last year and she's a really good hard court player but she's been quite inconsistent this year but she's been playing better than Ivanovic*

Answer 7

Jankovic and Nadal

Answer 8

Top 3 men:

- Nadal

- Djokovic

- Federer

(of course)

women:

- Safina

- Dementieva

- Serena

Answer 9

NADAL all the way!!!!!!!!!!! He has the desire to win. The heart of a champion and a GREAT FIGHTING SPIRIT. Vamos Rafa.

Answer 10

1.djoko

2.nadal

3.federer

Answer 11

lindsay davenport!!! she could be a huge threat for the tournament.  hope her knee and injuries stay out

Answer 12

men- Djokovic or roddick

women- serena or venus

the women's side is terrible this year

I would's assumed sharapova would win because of her dominance on hard courts but she is out for 2 months with2 torn tendons in her shoulder

Answer 13

i would love to see roger winning a grand slam this year (i want to see that very badly). so i dont put my bet on anyone else. till roger surpasses sampras' record of 14 GS, i'll always be biased supporting for roger.

as for the women's section, i'm not very keen on anyone.

Answer 14

I'm certain that Nadal will win it. Federer is just too skinny (lol) to make an impact against the big boys, and a lot of players are figuring out his style - flashiness and looking good on the court are not enough anymore to overcome the brute force of players like Rafa and Novak (the Serb is a beast when playing well). Federer's era is definitely over, and I wouldn't be surprised if Novak overtakes him by the end of the year.

Answer 15

my picks..

for the men it will be a narrow contest bewteen Djovick Or Nadal...

if neither of them take it then my dark horses will be Richard Gasquet and Andy murray

Snowball chance in h**l... andy roddick, and roger federer

Women

what a disaster of a year.... justine henin is kicking herself..she could have picked up 2 slams for sure!

it will be bewteen Dinara Safina or Elene Demeteva

Dark horse Serena willams, or jelena jankovic

snowball chance in h**l Nicole Vaidsova, Tatina golovin..

Answer 16

Yup , Nadal

He will try to repeat what Fed did & try to complete all the Grandslams starting with the US Open , then Australia comes next.

Doz' are what he hasn't conquered yet.

Answer 17

my opinion

1. federer (cause im biased and absolutely love him) (also..I HOPE!)

2. nadal (duh..gold medal, wimbly, frech open- its self explanatory0

3. Djokovic (cuase he beat nadal once, and will again hopefully. Also i love him also and find him extremely cute.^__^)

Andy Roddick...home advantage(duh)

in wta:

i wouldnt mind ana or JJ (hmmm...i love serbians dont i.. :P)

but william sisters or dinara safina (she's in hot form)

Answer 18

nadall...nadal...Rafa the king for men's singles and venus williams women's.... I also like maria sharapova or dinara safina to win...they're both Russians though...
