The year’s final Grand Slam tournament commences on the Flushing Meadows, New York with former world number one, Kim Clijsters of Belgium facing Ukraine’s Viktoriya Kutuzova in the first match at Arthur Ashe Stadium. Clijsters is making her first US Open appearance since winning the 2005 women’s title, her only Grand Slam crownin 5 years. She returned to the court earlier this month after a layoff of more than 2 years to start a family life.
Federer, who has won the past five US Open men’s titles and has not lost at the US Open since the fourth round in 2003, begins his quest for six in a row against 18-year-old American, Devin Britton in the second match at rthur Ashe Stadium. “Doesn’t matter who you play, where you play. If you think the guy is not going to make a game that’s absurd. You have to be very careful. I have to make sure I put in a good performance. Federer recalled being shocked at 17 when he faced Andre Agassi in his hometown of Basel, so he can relate to Britton’s situation. You try to enjoy it, put in a good fight, Federer said. “Best-of-five-set match is maybe something Britton has never played before, but a good thing in tennis is you always have a chance.” US fifth seed, Andy Roddick’s advice for Britton was to find ways to help cope with a signature moment on the big stage.“There’s nothing like going out on that court and playing,” Roddick said. Federer will have to battle with Andy Murray and Rafael Nadal who are also lookig forward for the first US open tittle in 5 years.
