It was business for usual for Vergeer, who had won her 100th successive tournament and the 27th Super Series title of her career in her last competitive outing at the British Open in July. The Dutch star dropped just seven games in three matches en route to winning her ninth title at the event, beating unseeded compatriot 62 61 in the final.

Like Kunieda and Vergeer, Norfolk will arrive in New York as the world No. 1, having dropped behind American during five months out of the sport to con- centrate on his family life. However, after becoming a father for the second time in July, the British player had already ensured he would reclaim the top spot from Wagner in his comeback tournament before beating him 76(7) 67(3) 62 in the quad singles final in St. Louis.

6 September 2010 Issue 36 As the world’s top players descend on New York for the last Grand Slam tournament of the year, Kunieda heads a men’s field consisting of seven of the world’s top eight players. The women’s field also features seven of the world’s top eight, including French former world No. 2 Florence Alix-Gravellier, for whom the US Open will be the last tournament of her career before retiring. Norfolk and Wagner are set to renew their rivalry in a quad singles field that features the world’s top four players.

The action starts on Thursday and can be followed at www.itftennis.com/wheelchair.
