Djokovic, Murray headline Thursday action at U.S. Open

 

By Ricky Dimon

 

The first full day of men’s second-round action at the U.S. Open will take place on Thursday. Among those in action are former champions Novak Djokovic and Andy Murray, who are still on a collision course for the quarterfinals. Djokovic is going up against Paul-Henri Mathieu while Murray is facing Matthias Bachinger.

 

Let’s take a look at some of the day’s marquee matches:

 

(1) Novak Djokovic vs. Paul-Henri Mathieu: Who knows what Djokovic was on display in Toronto and Cincinnati? But the real Djokovic was back in action for a first-round rout of Diego Schwartzman. That’s bad news for Mathieu.

Sam Querrey vs. (28) Guillermo Garcia-Lopez: For what it’s worth, all three remaining American men are facing opponents with three names or a hyphenated name (John Isner vs. Jan-Lennard Struff and Tim Smyczek vs. Bautista Agut). This one is a rematch of a recent Winston Salem quarterfinal, won by Querrey 6-7(3), 6-2, 6-4.

 

(22) Philipp Kohlschreiber vs. (WC) Michael Llodra: Kohlschreiber and Isner are one win away each from going head-to-head in the U.S. Open third round for a third consecutive year. They should not have any trouble making it happen; meaning this should be the last Grand Slam singles match of Llodra’s career.

 

 

Jan-Lennard Struff vs. (13) John Isner: You know Isner wants another shot at Kohlschreiber, having lost two heartbreakers in successive seasons. As long as he doesn’t get caught looking ahead, the big man should roll.

 

(9) Jo-Wilfried Tsonga vs. Aleksandr Nedovyesov: Tsonga is on the Grandstand for a second straight match. U.S. Open attendees will not be disappointed–at least not those who get in before the match starts!

Pablo Carreno Busta vs. Benoit Paire: Newsflash: Benoit Paire cares about tennis. The mercurial Frenchman showed guts, grit, and desire in a five-set win over countryman Julien Benneteau on Monday. But which Paire will show up to face PCB? You never know!

 

Andy Murray of Great Britain hits a return to Robin Haase of the Netherlands during the 2014 US Open Tennis Championship at the USTA National Tennis Center in Flushing, Meadows, New York, USA, 25 August 2014. The US Open runs through Monday 08 September, a 15-day schedule. EPA/JASON SZENES

(Q) Matthias Bachinger vs. (8) Andy Murray: Bachinger, who qualified to get into the main draw, has played nine sets at this U.S. Open and none has been more competitive than 6-3. That being said, none of his opponents has been ranked in the top 10 like Murray.

 

Nick Kyrgios vs. Andreas Seppi: You can’t get a more stark contrast in styles. Seppi is a 30-year-old veteran with a solid game but little flair and almost no emotion on his sleeve. Kyrgios is an energetic 19-year-old with massive power and an outgoing personality on the court. That contrast should make for a fun one to watch.

 

(Q) Borna Coric vs. Victor Estrella Burgos: You can get a bigger age difference in a match…like if Cici Bellis played Kimiko Date Krumm. But this one is pretty big. Coric is just 17 and Estrella Burgos is exactly twice as old at 34. What they do have in common is that this would be the biggest win of either one’s career.
