The American Grand Slam will take place from the 27th of August to the 9th of September.
All the 50 best players in the world are set to battle on the hard courts of the USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center in New York to become the champion of the fourth and last Grand Slam of the year. Only 3 of the top-100 ATP players have withdrawn from the event, and the cut-off is the same as the Roland Garros, at 105 (Duckworth, protected ranking).
Tomas Berdych, Alexandr Dolgopolov and Jo-Wilfried Tsonga have pulled out due to injury, as well as the unlucky German hope Cedrik-Marcel Stebe, who has undergone another surgery (wrist).
The Us Open 2018 will also be the last Grand Slam of some tennis legends: Mikhail Youzhny, Gilles Muller, Julien Benneteau and Florian Mayer (last tournament) have already announced that, while other veterans like David Ferrer, Feliciano Lopez and Nicolas Mahut (in singles) are still in doubt.
The qualifying tournament will start on Tuesday, the main draw will be revealed on Friday. Stan Wawrinka, Tim Smyczek, Michael Mmoh, Noah Rubin, Jenson Brooksby, Bradley Klahn, Corentin Moutet and Jason Kubler have been awarded Wild-Cards into the main draw. The Croatian 39 year-old Ivo Karlovic will start from the qualifying for the first time in 5 years.
