US Open 2024: The 2024 US Open, one of the four major Grand Slams of tennis, is starting on 26 August. This time four Indian players are participating in this prestigious tournament. Meanwhile, India’s men’s singles player Sumit Nagal is all set to create history in the US Open. Sumit Nagal will play his fourth Grand Slam event this time. Sumit Nagal is the first Indian player to do so since 2019. Therefore, his participation in this tournament holds special significance.
Sumit will have a match with this player
Sumit Nagal is currently ranked 73rd in the ATP rankings and his first match will be against Talon Griekspoor of the Netherlands, who is ranked 40th. This year Sumit Nagal performed well in the Australian Open and reached the second round, but he had to face defeat in the first round in the French Open and Wimbledon. He could not progress beyond the first round in the Paris Olympics as well. Despite this, Nagal will be hoping to do something new in the US Open this time.
Expectations from these players in men’s doubles
Three more players are participating from India in the men’s doubles. Rohan Bopanna, Yuki Bhambri, and N Sriram Balaji. All these players will play with different partners.
