Top half is loaded.

The Rafa section will be empty if he withdraws. Big chance for Tiafoe or Kecmanovic.

Kyrgios and Kokkinakis R1

Some potential week-1 matchups:
Coric-Alcaraz R3
Murray-Berrettini R3 (optimistic for Murray, maybe both)
Medvedev-Shelton R3
Medvedev-Kyrgios R4
Fritz-Paul R4

I was wondering which seed Andy Murray would draw.

Rinky gets Nadal...
Hey... welcome to the big leagues!

I am an OTHER candidate in the POLL. Going with Hubie Hurkacz to raise the USO trophy. Really looks like it will come down to him and Nadal in the SF.

Sock/Schwartzmann seems like an upset special

I don't really believe in my pick and don't pull for him often, but I'm nearly certain one of the people on this list will win, so what the heck.

I'd certainly take Nadal, Alcaraz, Medvedev and Kyrgios and give everyone else the field.

I did not notice that one. Yes, I don't see Diego being able to handle that power at the moment.

Here is my breakdown of each quarter

Top Half
Medvedev(1)
Kyrgios(23)
Carreno Busta(12)
Auger-Aliassime(6)
Tsitsipas(4)
Cerundelo(24)
Fritz(10)
Korda

Bottom Half
Hurkacz(8)
Sinner(11)
Evans(20)
Coric(25)
Norrie(7)
Rublev(9)
Tiafoe(22)
Nadal(2)

I can’t go with other as I think it will be someone on this list. Tsitsipas’ time? I guess we’ll see.
