Apart from these three countries, in Spain fans can watch it on Telefonica/Movistar and in Italy they can watch it on Super Tennis. However considering the massive fan following of the sport from the US, UK, and Australia, let’s take a look at the favorites from those three countries at the 2024 US Open.

Who are the favorites to win the US Open from the USA, UK, and Australia?

It has been almost 21 years since an American man won the title at this mega event. Who’ll be the next from the men’s division to accomplish this enormous feat? If we talk about two favorites from the men’s division, then it’s surely going to be Tommy Paul and Taylor Fritz. Both of these tennis stars have been in decent form this year. Paul has already won 2 titles in this season, where Fritz reached the QF of this tournament in 2023. Fritz has also won two titles in this season. What about the women?

Well, two names that first come to our mind are the defending champion, Coco Gauff, and Jessica Pegula. Although Gauff has been struggling with her form in the last few months, Pegula has been in great touch. She has also won a couple of titles this season. Not only that, she reached the QF at the US Open in 2022. So surely she is capable of causing a few upsets here this season.

Now, if we shift our focus to the UK well, with the withdrawal of the British number 2, Cameron Norrie, all hopes are now lying on Jack Draper. However, in the women’s section, watch out for the 2021 US Champion, Emma Raducanu. From Australia, Alex de Minaur and Ajla Tomljanovic are most likely the favorites to make a deep run at the US Open this year. What are your thoughts, though?
