2020 US Open betting tips – Men’s draw analysis

• Rafael Nadal is the defending champion but he chose not to travel to New York this season. Former winner Roger Federer is also absent from the competition.
• Novak Djokovic is the top seed while Austrian No. 1 Dominic Thiem takes the coveted 2nd seed spot.
• Djokovic finds himself in the same half as Alexander Zverev, meaning he could face the German in the semifinal.
• Meanwhile, Thiem’s possible list of early opponents includes Marin Cilic, Milos Raonic, and Karen Khachanov.
• Former British No. 1 Andy Murray is also a part of the main draw.

Djokovic, fresh off his winning run in the Cincinnati Masters, looks primed to go the distance in the US Open. He starts his campaign against Damir Dzumhur, followed by the possibility of meeting Pablo Carreno Busta or John Isner in the fourth round.

In terms of major threats to keep an eye out for, it is the youngsters like Denis Shapovalov, Taylor Fritz, and Stefanos Tsitsipas who hold a definite threat. However, these players will come into play against the Serb only after 4th round.

Zverev has got his work cut out for him as he begins his campaign against the South African veteran Kevin Anderson. If he overcomes that hurdle, the next big concern in his bracket would be the No. 9 seed Diego Schwartzmann. Tsitsipas and Borna Coric are in the same quarter with a possible fixture as early as round three.

No. 7 seed David Goffin may be a player worth following, given his massive experience in comparison to the other players in his bracket.

In the bottom half, Thiem may very well run into the former US Open champion Marin Cilic in the third round. If he makes it there and beyond, he may run into the likes of Denis Shapovalov or Andy Murray.

Similarly, Roberto Bautista Agut and Karen Khachanov are the top seeds in the 7th bracket, with Milos Raonic looking to upset the order there. In the same way, Grigor Dimitrov and Daniil Medvedev are also on a collision course, competing in a bracket that should prove to be easy for the two.

No. 6 seed Matteo Berrettini faces a comparatively simple quarter, with Andrey Rublev serving as the possible danger in the 4th round.

2020 US Open betting tips – Women’s draw analysis

• Karolina Pliskova takes the top-seed while Sofia Kenin, the reigning Australian Open champion, takes the 2nd seed.
• Petra Kvitova is on the path to meet Pliskova in the semis, with a possible meeting against Naomi Osaka on the cards for the quarterfinal.
• In the bottom half, Sofia Kenin faces a tricky bracket, starting with Yanina Wickmayer, followed by the likes of Vera Zvonareva, Ons Jabeur, Kim Clijsters, and Elise Mertens.
• Aryna Sabalenka and Victoria Azarenka can meet as early as the 2nd round, while Venus Williams and Johanna Konta may face off in the first week in Flushing Meadows.
• Serena Williams may run into Garbine Muguruza or Madison Keys on way to the semifinal.
• Williams is also gunning for her 24th Grand Slam title.

The top half of the US Open 20202 women’s draw presents a few mouthwatering ties. Right off the bat, Pliskova may run into former World No. 1 Angelique Kerber in the fourth round. Similarly, Osaka may face the giant killer Cori Gauff in the third round, immediately followed by a possible encounter against Danielle Collins.

Keys and Muguruza find themselves in a bracket completed by Donna Vekic and Saisai Zheng. In the same manner, Serena Williams may have to sort the likes of Sloane Stephens, Amanda Anisimova, or Maria Sakkari if she has to conquer her quadrant.

In the bottom half, Sofia Kenin faces a tricky start. She starts against the Belgian Yanina Wickmayer, followed by possible encounters against Vera Zvonareva, Kim Clijsters, or Elise Mertens.

Johanna Konta and Venus Williams may lock horns as early as round three, while Serena Williams will need to keep an eye out for Monica Puig, Sloane Stephens, and Amanda Anisimova in the early stages.
