US Open Tennis 2018: TV Schedule, Picks for Tuesday Afternoon Draw Roger Federer and Novak Djokovic both get their US Open campaigns under way on Flushing Meadows in New York. 


The duo are viewed as serious contenders in the draw, with Federer seeking his sixth win in this event and his 21st Grand Slam title overall. Djokovic, who won Wimbledon this summer and has rediscovered his form in the second half of the season, is the favorite with many to go all the way. Elsewhere, Angelique Kerber's Wimbledon champion will take to the court, as will the Australian Open winner Caroline Wozniacki. 

Here is a look at what is on the agenda for these high-profile players, a prediction for the main matches on Tuesday and a look at how some of these stars are set to fare. The conclusions can be drawn from these early shows, as players are feeling their way into the tournament. However, there will be a buzz when Djokovic strides out at the Arthur Ashe Stadium, especially when the sixth seed has been found some form again in 2018. He was excellent at Wimbledon, beating Rafael Nadal in a semi-final before toppling epic Kevin Anderson to claim the title. It's the form carried into the Cincinnati Masters, where he overcame Grigor Dimitrov, Milos Raonic, Marin Cilic and then Federer on his way to victory. 

Tennis TV picked out some highlights from the Serb at this tournament: He is a big favorite against Marton Fucsovics, while Federer is expected to be dominant when he takes to the court afterwards against Yoshihito Nishioka. The Swiss veteran suffered a shock loss at Wimbledon, losing to Anderson in the quarter-finals 13-11 in the fifth set having led by two sets. However, the signs in Cincinnati were positive for the great man, as he made it to the final before running into a rampant Djokovic.
