The world is ready for the US Open Tennis 2021 which will be starting from August 30, 2021 to September 12, 2021, know the predictions for the men’s singles title
The 4-day qualifiers for the US Open 2021 will end on August 27, 2021.
Unfortunately, this year’s championship has had a problematic start with many fan-favourite players pulling out of the tournaments mainly due to injuries. The most surprising withdrawals from the Men’s Singles are Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal, Dominic Thiem, Stan Wawrinka and Milos Raonic.
But, “Sports must go on.” Therefore, here is the list of the Top 5 Men’s Singles Players to watch out for.
US Open 2021 Predictions: Top 5 Players Who Can Win The Men’s Singles Tennis Title
- Novak Djokovic
This list should start with the ‘Serbian maestro.’ Djokovic is eyeing for his 21st Grand Slam title after his recent Wimbledon Grand Slam title which levelled him with the two greats: Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal. Thus, the US Open is going to be extremely crucial for Djokovic’s career and Tennis history. All eyes will be on the World No. 1 player’s performance.
2. Daniil Medvedev
The World No. 2 is another strong competitor for the US Open 2021 Championship. The Russian champ will be super motivated as he has not won a single Grand Slam in his professional career. Daniil Medvedev has faced Novak Djokovic 7 times so far and has won 3 matches against him. Medvedev started playing pro in 2015 and has been unstoppable to date.
3. Stefanos Tsitsipas
The World No. 3 must be hungry for a win against Novak Djokovic after his defeat at the Roland Garros 2021 Finals in July. He was the first Greek player to reach a Grand Slam final in July. The Greek conqueror has won just 2 matches out of the 8 times he has faced Djokovic so far and no Grand Slam titles so far. The 23- year- old is well known for his agility and counterattacks.
The 24-year-old German is quite motivated after just winning a gold medal for his country at the Tokyo Olympics 2020. Zverev has also not won a single Grand Slam title along with Stefanos Tsitsipas and Daniil Medvedev. With Federer and Nadal out of the tournament, Zverev has become another fan-favourite and a high-probability title-contender.
5. Andy Murray
Last but not the least, is UK’s best tennis player, Andy Murray. Despite having won 3 Grand Slam Titles, Andy Murray is currently the World No. 118 due to constant injuries, and surgeries. But the champ believes in himself and so do his fans from the UK and around the world. Andy Murray will face World No. 3 Stefanos Tsitsipas in the first round of the US Open 2021 on Monday, August 30, 2021.
