Andrey RubleV did not have an impressive performance on the hard ground in the early stages of 2021. Before August, RubleV's best achievement only reached the quarterfinals of the Great Ocean Road Open 2021 in Melbourne in February.
After a series of disappointing matches at the Olympic Games Tokyo and Toronto Masters 2021, the No. 2 Russian player raised his spirit by reaching the final of Cincinnati Masters a few weeks ago. At the US Open, RubleV has twice reached the quarterfinals in 2017 and 2020.

IVO Karlovic has extended its career after defeating Nikola Milojevic, Hugo Dellien and Yuichi Sugita in the US Open qualifiers. A few months ago, the 42 -year -old tennis player announced the plan after the US expansion this year.
The Croatian player will become the oldest player playing in the US Open since the legendary Ken Rosewall in 1977. Although currently only ranked 221 ATP, at the peak, Karlovic has also reached the top 15 of the world and is the pride of Croatian tennis.
Many people will definitely hope Karlovic can achieve success in the final tournament in his career but having to confront the world No. 7 player in the first round is a huge challenge for Karlovic.
