Qualies starts today, the draw featuring Thanasi "The Kok" Kokkinakis, and world #1 leprechuan Louk Sorensen. Women's draw has a couple of good Q1 matchups with Konjuh-Radwanska and Krunic-Martic.

Official live stream: http://www.usopen.org/en_US/interact...l?promo=subnav

As for the main draws, there's already a substantial list of players that have pulled out:

nadal
delpo
dolgo
haas
almagro
flo mayer

la ni
kleybanova
duval

Djoker, Murray, Stan are all in **** form. Is this R.O.G.'s last good chance for a slam?

In for the GOAT to GOAT.

Got my grounds tickets to go on Aug. 30, will mark the fourth year in a row going on that Saturday. Always a blast, hopefully it's not 135 degrees this year.

Oscarito in the draw again as well, retired three years ago and played every GS Q draw this year on a protected ranking while playing no other tournaments, racking up a cool 4k per tournament on average. Excellent way to finance your trips to Grand Slams, although I hope the ITF changes the rules now

Not a bad shout. Raonic, too, maybe.

Grigor is 14-1 at most books right now. I think he'd need a good draw for that to be +EV.

Fognini always sucks at the USO btw.

Tsonga at 18-1 looks like the best longshot imo.

I've got a weird feeling that Fed Goat is going to ship this and then step down for Tennis.

On form Fed might actually be favourite but this is best of 5, not best of 3 so Novak will most likely ship.

Don't blame Nadal for slinking out of this one. Novak has no chance of losing.

Lolfed likely to lose by the 3rd round.

vickery playing like alessio di mauro, but can't move as well. Still held serve for 3-2 in the 3rd.

Sucks that Ginepri was ranked too low on the cut-off date for qualis, after that he went on to win a match at 250, 500 and 1000 level. So clearly he would've won a main draw match here as well to complete the streak.
