The US Open starts on August 26th and everyone wonders which players will be seeded, now we know the list.
Being seeded means that the player avoids tough opponents in the form of others seeded in the first two rounds. Last year's 6th seeded and also the champion,
Novak Djokovic, will be no.1 this year.
Other interesting names are certainly
Rafael Nadal, who won the Montreal tournament and is seeded as second. Daniil Medvedev, who plays in a great form and after
winning his first Masters 1000 tournament, he will be seeded as the 5th.
And also controversial Nick Kyrgios, who first won the tournament in Washington and then
was fined $ 113,000 at the Western & Southern Open. Kyrgios is 28th seeded and is followed by
Paire, who is playing at the Winston-Salem Open right now.
