US Open: Rafael Nadal and Roger Federer are strong contenders in the men's category
New York: The last Grand Slam of the year is starting here from the US Open Monday. Due to the absence of many legendary players,
the junk has become interesting for the title of the title in the US Open Tennis Tournament. In the men's category where Rafael Nadal and Roger Federer will go on to the court as the strong contenders, there will be eight players in the women's category,
along with their titles as well as number one ranking. Nadal and Federer's rivalries are famous, but these two legends never faced face-to-face in the US Open. This time though these two can face each other in the semi-finals. World number two and 2012 champion Andy Murray withdrew after Saturday's failure to recover from a hip injury,
which ended the possibility of finals between Federer and Nadal. Both of these legends are still in one half and they can be fought in the last four.
Nadal, who reached number one ranking for the first time in the last three years, won the title in 2010 and 2013, and this time, his claims in the absence of Novak Djokovic and Stan Wawrinka have become strong. Five-time US Open champion Federer will present his claim to the 20th Grand Slam and the third major title of this year. If Federer, who won the Australian Open and Wimbledon this year, is successful in winning the title, he would be the oldest player to win the US Open in the Open era.
Apart from dead, Djokovic and Wawrinka, KE Nishikori and Milos Raonich have also made it easier for Nadal and Federer's semi-final to get out due to injuries. Nadal, however, had to face the defeat of Canadian teenager Dennis Shapovalov in Nic Kurgisos and Montreal before the tournament before this tournament. Federer had been dropped from Cincinnati because of a back injury, while in the final in Montreal he was defeated by Alexander Javreve. Players such as Javrev, Kyrgyaus and Dominic Theme also have a great opportunity to win this title.

U.S. Open 2017: Billiee Jean King exciteded by depth in women's game
As I’ve been hitting with Babolat for years, much about the feel was familiar—though, of course, in my reach-for-the-stars fanboy-ism, I play with Rafael Nadal’s Babolat, the Pure Aero Play, which is like a Sunday driver thinking that if he splurges on a Lotus instead of a Volvo, he’ll be living his Formula One dream a bit sooner. The Pure Drive, to horribly bastardize Howlin’ Wolf, seemed built for comfort and for speed, and in some early rallying with very good players who nonetheless hadn’t recently won Wimbledon
And yet again, she is among the eight women vying to take the top spot from Karolina Pliskova (6390 points) by the end of the tournament. Serena Williams’ temporary absence has sown uncertainty about who in the women’s side can be a contender to win big titles.
Halep (6385), once more gunning for her seemingly elusive first Grand Slam title, has on multiple occasions been the answer to that.
Halep is still young and Pliskova has come through with her big serve and she is just much more fit — in fact, she took off almost six months to get fit and now it's really showing. She has never won but there are eight players where at the end of the U.S. Open they could be No. 1 in the world.
"I think this is the most depth we have ever had, we are also seeing a changing of the guard because I have been through five six, seven generations and right now it's so exciting. I really love it because I don't know who is going to win and I really love that feeling because it captures my interest as a former professional player.

Martin originally signed with the Seattle Seahawks as an undrafted free agent on May 2, 2015.
He spent the 2015 offseason and training camp with the Seahawks before being waived on September 5, 2015. Martin was claimed off waivers by the New York Jets the next day.
Hennessy signed with the Colts in May as an undrafted rookie from Duke.
The Jets currently have one long snapper (eight-year veteran Tanner Purdum) on the roster, but they either wanted competition or a cheaper alternative.
Hennessy signed with the Colts as an undrafted rookie out of Duke this year. He was Ross Martin's long snapper at Duke from 2013-15. Martin is now competing with Chandler Catanzaro for the Jets' kicking job.
Martin has never kicked in an NFL regular season game, but he has given Catanzaro a run for his money in training camp and preseason games this year.
In the third round in 2015, Maccagnan took pass-rusher Lorenzo Mauldin, who has 6.5 career sacks and is suddenly buried on the depth chart. There's a good chance he won't make the team.
Quarterback Bryce Petty came in the fourth. He looks more like a backup, if that. The Jets cut guard Jarvis Harrison (fifth round) one year after drafting him
