Welcome to We’re Going Five Podcast Season 3 Episode 30, our full US Open Draw Preview.
We break down both draws from top to bottom: who got lucky, who got absolutely screwed, the first round fireworks, dangerous early matchups, Top 10 players on upset watch, our US Open Bingo cards, Ride or Die players, fan hot takes, dark horses, and finally our champions.
And with the US Open picture completely open, the arguments get VERY different.
🍀 WHO GOT LUCKY?
The guys disagree on who really received the biggest gift from the draw, but one thing is clear: there are some VERY different roads to the second week.
Does Djokovic have the path he needs to chase Grand Slam No. 25?
And after everything Zverev has done at the majors in 2026, did the draw just give him another massive opportunity?
💀 WHO GOT SCREWED?
How much can a difficult bracket change everything?
🔥 EARLY ROUND FIREWORKS
The first week is LOADED.
Potential matchups include:
Wawrinka vs Berrettini
Shelton vs Griekspoor
Fils vs Tsitsipas
Musetti vs Arthur Fery
Rafael Jodar vs Kokkinakis
And those are only some of the matches that could turn the draw upside down before we even reach the second week.
✈️ WHO’S TAKING THE FIRST FLIGHT HOME?
Every Slam has a Top 10 player who disappears before anyone expects it.
