The Bryan Brothers’ retirement came as a bit of surprise especially since the US Open is starting very soon. It would have been amazing for them to win one final Slam before they called it quits. Nevertheless, everybody seems to have respected their decision.
Other players like John Isner are going to be training for the event that begins on August 31. The American has got some time now to prepare as he lost to Stefanos Tsitsipas at the Western & Southern Open in a very close match. He was playing very well and he wants to carry that into the US Open with him, where he stands a good chance of winning.
