Who will be the favorite for the US Open?

Tough to say. I think it is wide open.

Djokovic and Nadal have made a lot of the recent Finals. Djokovic is due to win another USO, he's lost 4 Finals but looks good each year on his route to the Finals.

Murray needs to get his forehand to the level it was the past few years, so it's not a liability.

If Del Potro is healthy, he is a dark horse. I like Del Potro more on grass and clay than I do on hard courts, even though Del Potro won the USO before. On grass, he can stick to the power game, and he's a better volleyer than some of his other big-serving peers, even though he's best from the baseline. And on clay, he's had good results before.

Del Potro hasn't played as well on hard courts as well as the summer of 2009.

If Wawrinka can play like he did at the AO and Wimbledon, he's a 2nd tier good pick.

Depending on what happens tomorrow, FED might might be able to to do it if he gets some breaks in the draw as the tourney progresses. I'll think about this after tomorrow.

As for the women, Serena, Sharapova, Azarenka, Bouchard, Halep, and probably one more power player like Lisicki or someone.
