The Japanese player shares some personal reflections after her defeat in the second round of the US Open, where she has won twice. "I feel disappointed."
Jakub Mensik put in a tremendous effort in his last match at the US Open, which ended with an exciting victory over Tristan Schoolkate (6(4)-7 2-6 6-2 7-6(5) 7-6(3)). What is most surprising is that the Czech player managed to come back and win the match after losing the first two sets, a feat that places him in a remarkable statistic. At 18 years and 362 days old, Mensik has become the youngest teenager since Michael Chang (16 years old) to win a Men's Singles match at the US Open after being down two sets.
18, 362 - Excluding retirements, Jakub Mensik (18y 362d) is the first teenager to win a Men's Singles match at the US Open from two sets down since Michael Chang (16y 197d), who defeated Tim Wilkison in the third round in 1988.

[pixels-player]Daniil Medvedev will be present in the third round of the US Open after defeating Fabian Marzosan in straight sets. Great performance by the former tournament champion who, in a press conference, talked about how his game is progressing over the years. Reinvent yourself or die: "Success is always important and you always try to look back to see what worked well. Then, you progress with age. Your shots sometimes change a bit. If you see Novak when he won his first Australian Open, he's probably playing completely different now and that's fine. I try to remember the good moments and maybe what I have to do now is exactly the same as before. I'm trying to learn new things and combine them. Balance is very important."

[pixels-player]In recent days, much has been said about the two positive doping tests of Jannik Sinner, his subsequent innocence, and his non-suspension during the process. Nick Kyrgios has been very clear on this issue from the outset, being highly critical of the alleged favorable treatment towards the number 1 (always under his own opinion). Thus, the Australian is collaborating at the US Open by interviewing players on the court, and the world is eagerly waiting for the moment when he will interview Sinner. When asked about Nick's social media comments during a press conference, Sinner appeared quite relaxed and admitted that "everyone is free to say what they want, I am not resentful at all." His words were captured by Eurosport in a video posted on Instagram, where Kyrgios remarked: "As athletes, we use our platforms to ensure things are fair and equal. That's all I did, and some players are upset. We know Sinner is incredible, a great player, and one of the main faces of the sport. But if you expect us to stay silent... We won't."

[pixels-player]Tommy Paul will be in the third round of the US Open after Max Purcell was forced to retire from the match. It is never easy to compete against a player who is struggling with physical issues, as described by the American: "It's very strange when you're in that situation because you try not to think. You see the other side of the court suffering and you try not to think: 'When will he stop playing? When will he quit?' Because as soon as you start having those thoughts, you lose concentration. I feel bad, I don't want it to end like this, but I'm happy to move on to the next round, whatever the case."

[pixels-player]A condemnation as cruel as unexpected. That is what this defeat of Carlos Alcaraz in the 2024 US Open means for his aspirations of returning to the number 1 spot in the world in the short term. Despite winning two Grand Slam tournaments and a Masters 1000, the player from Murcia could face the final stretch of the season outside of the top 3 in the world rankings and even drop to fifth place after the New York Grand Slam.
If Daniil Medvedev wins the title and Novak Djokovic reaches the final, Alcaraz would drop to fifth place. He would fall out of the top 3 if either of these two scenarios plays out and could end up trailing the number 1 spot by 4,490 points if Jannik Sinner wins the tournament. Even if Sinner doesn't win, the gap between them will be significant, so Alcaraz's chances of ending the year at the top of the ATP rankings have greatly diminished.

[pixels-player]No one could have imagined that Carlos Alcaraz would fall so early in the US Open 2024, and his defeat leaves a significant power vacuum in his section of the draw. Despite the high level shown by Botic Van de Zandschulp, it is evident that his progression is seen as a great opportunity for other players. One of them is Jack Draper, his opponent in the third round.
The winner of the match between Goffin and Machac also has reasons to dream of continuing to advance, while Álex de Miñaur has an exciting prospect of reaching the semifinals. Additionally, Jannik Sinner and Daniil Medvedev, who could face each other in the quarterfinals and had Carlitos as a potential opponent in the semifinals, have reasons to be excited following the early exit of the Spaniard.
