The final game of the year is coming, and although Zverev and Djokovic are absent, the men's singles field is also full of many points to watch. Especially for the competition for the championship and the struggle for the world's first throne, there will be many variables because of the attribution of the men's singles champion. From the current statistics and rankings, as many as 5 people may win the No.1 title after the end of the US Open, and it is not necessary to win the final championship, so the attribution of the men's singles champion and the suspense of the world ranking after the US Open will become the focus of this US Open.
According to the general statistics given by the ATP official, the defending champions Medvedev, Nadal, Tsitsipas, Alcaraz, Ruud and other 5 players are expected to win the world's No. 1 after the US Open, but the requirements for 5 people are also more stringent, that is, to win the US Open men's singles championship. But if there are other unexpected circumstances, the world's first belonging will once again be full of suspense. Among them, Nadal will have a clear advantage, but also to the 23rd crown of his career.
After the specific signing table was released, the competition for the world number one and the men's singles championship became clearer. Regardless of who stands out in the four halves, the 2 players who reach the final will compete for world number one and the MEN's Singles title at the US Open. Whether it's Nadal vs. Medvedev, Medvedev vs. Alcaraz, or any other top-4 seed matchup, the winner will be the new world number one after the end of the US Open.
Medvedev is currently in No. 1, but the position is very unstable because it must defend the title to keep the first place, otherwise it will be directly removed by Nadal, who will once again sit in the world number one position after February 2020. In addition, for Alcaraz, he also has the opportunity to become No.1 for the first time in his career, but the conditions for him are more stringent, unless he directly wins the men's singles championship, then everything will become a passing cloud.
However, before the final championship battle, there are still several possible focus duels, affecting the championship and the world number one battle. For example, if Alcaraz defeats Nadal in the quarter-finals, he is not only expected to hit the championship, but also has the opportunity to become the youngest world number one. However, even if Nadal loses, it is possible to return to the world number one after the end of the US Open, but it depends on Medvedev's specific situation.
Even if Nadal is eliminated in the first round of this US Open, it is possible to return to the world number one after the game, after all, Now Nadal has the least pressure on the score, it can be said that he is playing in the US Open in a single way, and every step is successful and there is no additional pressure. If Nadal successfully advances to the round of 4, at least one of the other four contenders wins the championship, which will shatter Nadal's first dream, otherwise, he can only watch Nadal reach the top of the world.
In addition, in the quarter-final battle, the current showdown between Tsitsipas and Ruud will also become one of the key events, and the winning side is not only expected to win the world first, but even if it does not have the opportunity to impact the championship in the end, it is also expected to get the second place in the world. After all, from the current ranking list, Tsitsipas has come to the third place in the world, and Rudd has also come to the fifth place in the world. Looking at these 5 players, Nadal is the least stressed, and Mei is also the most stressed, as long as he does not win the championship, he basically declares the first position to give up. And Nadal will not only have an advantage in signing against the match, but also the No.1 and career 23 titles will be his motivation.
