The US Open kicks off on Monday with a whopping 32 men’s matches on Day 1.
It should be an incredible day of tennis action and–as always–we here at LWOT want to share our thoughts on every match with you.
We split the 32 matches between eight articles. In addition to this article, our other articles feature Novak Djokovic vs Radu Albot, Frances Tiafoe vs Aleksandar Kovacevic, Ben Shelton vs Dominic Thiem, Gael Monfils vs Diego Schwartzman, Alexander Zverev vs Maximilian Marterer, Taylor Fritz vs Camilo Ugo Cara Elliott, and Andrey Rublev vs Thiago Seyboth Wild. Predicting these matches are Ateet Shrivastava, Damian Kust, and Yesh Ginsburg. Who do you think will reach Round 2?
Both these players have come through qualifying and have an equal chance to get the win here. Hugo Grenier is in better form coming into this match with loads of match wins on the Challenger Tour. It’s a toss-up.
Prediction: Grenier in 5
What a season it’s been for Krueger as last year he didn’t even get a qualifying wild card for New York, but now he made it back on ranking after two Challenger trophies and was stellar in his campaign to join the main draw last week. Grenier’s big serve/good defense mix is quite tricky for the American, but the form and confidence are there.
