This year’s US Open Tennis will introduce a lot of spectacular moments. And probably, it is going to be like an old time again.

Juan Martin del Potro – 5395 (900)

Novak Djokovic – 3355 (0)

Stan Wawrinka – 290 (0)

Andy Murray – 20 (0)

There is an explanation for why Stan Wawrinka got the low point, along with other names like Novak Djokovic and Andy Murray. They skip about second half of the season in the previous year because of the injuries that they had been experiencing. The wave of injuries has convinced many people that it could be the tennis generation transition.

However, it is not true at all. What people speculated back then is wrong. On the contrary, all these athletes look healthy and fresh now. They have recovered from the wave of injuries and claimed to be ready for the US Open Tennis 2018. Wawrinka has been in the old-shape, and he is prepared to beat his opponents.

Andy Murray, in the other side, had his first victory against Stan. Meanwhile, Novak Djokovic has made to prove himself to the world after winning the title at SW19.

Roger Federer had been in the overbearing position at Wimbledon. It looks like he can be dominating in every faucet except after being upset by Kevin Anderson in the last-8. Regardless of the fact, he remains a favorite athlete. sNot to mention the number of fans who will be rooting for him in the US Open Tennis venue will be the x-factor for him.

As Roger Federer has a good position, Nadal is also ready to carry his racket to the grass and remind the public that he is a countable contender.

From Canada, we can see Sascha Zverev as the Canadian Masters defending Champion. However, the injuries seem still haunt him because of his defeats in the last two Slams.

The US Open is going to be in Flushing Meadow, NY. Once again, this prestigious festival will stop the city. Undoubtedly, the US Open is by far the most exciting tennis event in the United States and one of the most prestigious Grand Slams in the world. Although we haven’t the idea about the draw yet, experts convince us that the top contenders are Novak Djokovic, Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal, Andy Murray, and Alexander Zverev.

The final grand slam of the tennis calendar is around the corner. It is just a month away. With the US Open approaching 27th August at the USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center, everyone realizes that there are the things to play for.

We can’t neglect the fact that there has been the “Big 3” concept of the men’s tennis. These consist of Roger Federer, Novak Djokovic, and Rafael Nadal. The prospect has split the first three Majors of 2018 between them. It is still not clear who is going to be the 4th.

With a month away, Federer would be looking to put an energetic show at Cincinnati Masters. Some people wish that Federer reach the final of the 2018 US Open. May bet bless it. The King of Clay Rafael Nadal will be defending the US Open champion. Nadal is back to where he belongs to. But to reach it, Nadal will have to defeat the rival Novak Djokovic, Milos Raonic, Juan Martin del Potro, Marin Cilic, Kevin Anderson and Dominic Thiem for the title. For the champion like him, it is not easy to do that.

For the first time, the officials of the US Open procure the video review for the US Open 2018. Later, the US Open courts are available for all the matches in singles, doubles and mixed doubles. All the types of games will feature the electronic line-calling and video review. The USTA announced the news last Friday.

It is a slight change for this year’s US Open Courts. It will be the very first time that the US Open showcase the technology. Not to mention that it will happen in every match of the US Open 2018. Actually, the electronic line-calling was available from 2006. But the replay and review feature is the first happenings this year.

For this year’s spectacle, four top courts will optimize the technology. They are Arthur Ashe Stadium, Louis Armstrong Stadium, Court 17 and Grandstand. These courts will provide instant-relay team within the arena of the US Open Courts this year. There will be a centralized office that will operate the re-review process for other matches as well. Last year, 7 courts had the capability.

The US Open 2018 is set to happen on August 27. Although it is a month away, the preparation has been in the severe plan. The officials will make sure that the video review in US Open 2018 will improve the experience for viewers. For the first time, the video review will happen at the courts of the US Open 2018.

The electronic line-calling and video review in 2018 will be the more enhanced and improved versions of the latest technology. The team of officials has been conducting the preparation seriously so that all of the techies will be in the prime conditions. These will perform for catering to singles, doubles, and mixed doubles.

The USTA stated that it would be the first time that every match would have the technology mentioned above. There will be dozens of people who will operate the electronic review process from the central operative office. The US Open will expand the uses of the court by using the tennis replay.

It is indeed the high-tech replay that the viewers and spectators will see in the upcoming prestigious event in the tennis world. The viewing will be available in all matches. The new integration finally happens after twelve years after the starting of the use of Hawk-Eye instant replay system in the Grand Slam events. This fall, the viewers will see the brand new replay system in the US Open. So, if you are not planning to attend the venue when the prestigious event happens, you can enjoy every spectacular moment of the matches from your favorite screen. You will see a lot of different replays from different angles with higher quality.

No matter what you would like to see in the US Open Tennis 2018: the men’s and women’s singles, doubles, and mixed doubles matches, the electronic line-calling will be able.

The expansion is also advantageous for the players. These will capture any slit moment so that the concerned folks can see the replays to discuss what’s happening. It is something that we couldn’t see in the past. Spectators are also found with this new change. The trajectory of the ball is the crucial thing for analysis. If you are diehard fans of tennis sport, you would agree that the computer-generated path of the ball is essential. The operators claim that the image can be precise within 3.6 millimeters. The result will also happen on the giant video boards.

With these new techies, the risks of errors will be minimized well. The US Open officials had this idea since the error during 2004 quarterfinal match between Serena Williams and Jennifer Capriati. You would probably have known the details. If you haven’t, you could check back on the past sources. At that time, Capriati won the Match 2-6, 6-4, 6-4 because of the error. The next day, the US Open Officials apologize to Williams and sworn to seek the mistakes.

Two years later, the new replay technology system was available to Ashe and Armstrong avenues. But it has evolved and planted on USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center. And for this year, the spectators can see it in all courts.

For both courts attendances and the viewers around the world, it is essential to catch up all the moments happening in the US Open Tennis. If you are like other tennis fans, you will want to follow every single moment of your favorite game happening on the court.

It is an excellent news for all the diehard fans of the tennis sport. The officials of the US Open Tennis Championships have been making few changes for better purposes. One of the developments for this year’s tournament is the instant replay additions to all the courts for all matches. With this change, it will make the US Open Tennis Championships as the first of tennis’ four Grand Slams. That will also make the upcoming championship as the second tournament with multiple courts to offer it for every match.

The upcoming US Open will conduct the replay system in a remote broadcast control center. This centralization is similar to the system that we usually see in many team-sport leagues. The remote broadcast control center will have more dynamic spectacles for the viewers. The other 12 courts will feed into a remote trailer complex housing. For this new replay feature, the officials dispatch around five dozen of technicians and replay operators. The workspace is a non-public area. They will locate it from the two main stadiums in Flushing, N.Y.

Dave Brewer, the tournament director, confirmed the new advancement of the replay and stated that it was one more advancement or one more innovation. Folks reacted to this news positively. Not only for the viewers, but the new replay system also benefits the players.

The new replay system was proposed years ago. Why this year? Why now? You might ask the question. It has a thing to do with the renovation of the USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center. The restoration of the place took roughly five years and costed the officials around $600 million. The repair focuses on the new roof on the Arthur Ashe Stadium and new Louis Armstrong Stadium that opens this year. With the complete renovation, the technicians will wire all the side courts for the replay.

The officials have been doing some video simulations to test the new replay features. The on-site video simulation shows where the ball lands. This will air on the digital scoreboards that are located in each court of the event.

It is indeed an advancement for all the parties involved in the US Open Tennis 2018. The on-site video simulation will be a pivotal role in succeeding the new replay features. The US Tennis Association representative claimed that the new replay features would be prevalent for the future projects as well.

The USTA owns and operates the Open. They also plan to conduct the replay for all professional singles, doubles, as well as mixed doubles matches. So, all the players in different categories can take the benefits of the replay features.

Because of the cost and logistic factors, the development can happen, and ones need to have much time to actualize it.

Some players get the benefits of the challenges, and other players do not understand them. In the US Open, Courts 4, 5 and six are laid out in sequence.

It is true that the US Open was the first tournament that provided a replay for players. It all began in 2006. And then, many tournaments follow the trend. However, that does not limit to what kind of tournament that needs the replay. For instance, seven of Wimbledon’s 18 courts also use replay. Last year, the US Open had it on seven of its 16 courts.

You might be wondering about the cost of having the replay. At one court for three weeks, it costs around $80,000. Perhaps the only problem for some tournaments is the space that they don’t have for accommodating the equipment and personnel. However, this matter will be quickly solved by operating the replay remotely. With the current technology, it is far from impossible.

Sony’s Hawk-Eye system is the dominant provider of the upcoming US Open replay. For this year’s US Open, the company will dispatch around 50 employees on site to handle the replay.

Wimbledon would seed Serena William. However, the US Open confirmed that they would change the seeding policy if a return from pregnancy comes into play. The changes will inevitably happen because the Official of US Open has confirmed it although they didn’t mention the name of the player individually.

This year’s US Open is the fourth and final Grand Slam tournament of the year in September. The official will revise the seedings if the pregnancy has a thing to do with the current rankings of the player. This statement shows the seriousness of the official to pay attention to the pregnancy issues. The USTA president and chairwoman Katrina Adams said that they would seriously revise the seedings if the pregnancy had been proven to be a factor in the rankings of the player.

The seeders didn’t give one of the 32 seeds for Williams, the 23-time Grand Slam singles champion when she came back from having a daughter on Sept.1 last year. It happened at French Open in May. Because of the maternity and pregnancy, her ranking had been down to no. 453. She could get involved in the significant tournament if she wanted to. It is because the WTA is protected ranking rule. However, when talking about the seeding, it will be up to Grand Slam organizers. They could decide whether or not giving Williams the seed.

As we know, Williams has many achievements in her entire career. Williams ended up in the semifinals of her last eight US Opens. She only missed the New York event in 2010 and 2017. Six times are the record that she has. She has been ranking in no. 183.

If she won’t make it in the Wimbledon or some crucial summer matches, it is not sure that the US Open would give her the seed. The organizers of the US Open is prepared to give her seeds. Many folks would probably think the same about the rights of every mother. The professional player who comes back from giving birth should have the equal opportunity as other women. According to the report, the official also gave a nod of this opinion. The players still deserve the seeds. Giving a birth, or starting a family shouldn’t be the reason why the player is “compromised.”

The US Open seeding protocol will now change and leverage the party of the pregnancies. Now it is essential. The official will dictate the different seeding for those who have been playing after the pregnancy.

The United States Tennis Association, Katrina Adams, admitted that the players who return from pregnancy should not be “penalized” for having a family. That sense. We have been arguing about this for years, but there has been no response from the officials about how should the seeding system work reasonably.

The public was questioning about the seeding policy since it didn’t seem fair. The USTA’s can give the good news after debating over the seeding of Williams at the last month’s French Open.

Williams was not seeded because she was on hiatus because of her pregnancy. She did not join the competition because of her condition. Williams was in the no.1 rank before giving birth. And now, she is down to no. 183.

Currently, under the WTA rules, rankings are not protected if the players are injured or pregnant. The seeds are distributed based on the player’s ranking. That means the recent win-loss records hold vital role to give the player seeds. Unfortunately, the WTA rules do not protect players who are injured or pregnant.

There is a possibility that she will be seeded in the upcoming US Open. The good news is that the US Open changes its approach to seeding the players, especially those who come back from the pregnancy. Folks criticized the officials when Williams returned to the French Open last month. For Katrina Adams, the president and chairwoman of the USTA said that it was the right thing to do. What do you think? Is it the right thing to do?
