    2017 US OPEN Flushing, New York, USA | August 28-September 10, 2017 Draw Size: S-128, D-64 | $50.4 million | Hard www.usopen.org DAY 10 MEDIA NOTES | Wednesday, September 6, 2017 FEATURED MEN’S SINGLES QUARTER-FINALS ARTHUR ASHE STADIUM [1] Rafael Nadal (ESP) vs Andrey Rublev (RUS) First Meeting [3] Roger Federer (SUI) vs [24] Juan Martin del Potro (ARG) Federer Leads 16-5 DAY 10 HIGHLIGHTS • Eight years and four wrist surgeries since ending Roger Federer’s 40-match US Open win streak, Juan Martin del Potro returns to Arthur Ashe Stadium for a rematch. The Argentine is 5-16 against Federer with all five wins on hard courts, none more meaningful than when he rallied from a set-and-a-break down to deny Federer a sixth straight US Open title. Del Potro can prevent history from being made again as Federer and Rafael Nadal are one win from meeting for the first time at the US Open. The Swiss and Spaniard have been this close six times now, including in 2009, when del Potro defeated Nadal 6-2, 6-2, 6-2 in the semi-finals before beating Federer in the final. • Nadal’s quarter-final opponent on Wednesday is #NextGenATP player Andrey Rublev. The 19-year-old Russian is the youngest US Open quarter-finalist since Andy Roddick in 2001. Rublev would be the youngest semi-finalist at the US Open since Lleyton Hewitt in 2000 and at any Grand Slam event since Nadal at 2005 Roland Garros. A teenager has never defeated a World No.

Mit dabei ist Marvin Möller. Der Hamburger gilt hierzulande als eines der hoffnungsvollsten Nachwuchstalente. Der DTB traf sich mit dem 18-Jährigen – und lernte einen jungen Mann kennen, der genau weiß, was er will. Abgeklärt? Klingt irgendwie eingebildet. Erwachsen? Der Junge ist doch noch ein Teenager. Cool? Sind das nicht fast alle Jugendlichen? Bodenständig? Hört sich langweilig an. Wie kann man Marvin Möller treffend beschreiben, wenn man all diese gut gemeinten, aber negativ behafteten Attribute vermeiden will? Nüchtern und aufgeräumt trifft es vielleicht am ehesten.
