US open totally different than clay or grass. Big kick serves really kick up. Big servers and forehand have big advantage if they can find zone. Alcaraz Has bad night he got blown off in straight sets. He’s been pretty lucky in pass hitting lots of lines. It finely caught up with him. IMO Sinner one to beat, only Joker has chance it he gets that far. But it’s US open anybody can step up. I like Paul he’s right on edge of breaking big in grand slam.

Is that the biggest upset in tennis history.

Only one that comes close is Robin Soderling beating Rafael Nadal at the 2009 French Open.

Nadal is 112-4 at the French Open. Only other losses were to Zverev this year and twice to Djokovic..

And with Djokovic losing last night, this is the first year since 2002 in which none of the Big Three of men's tennis -- Djokovic, Rafael Nadal and Roger Federer -- won a grand slam!
