This is not going to be easy and she is up against history and the burden of expectation and only time will tell if she can overcome the pressure and burden of expectation to win this 22nd Grand Slam.
Another challenge for the title would be Petra Kivitova and after winning the New Haven this weekend she is now fully fit and could contend for title.
Simona Halep is another contender for the title and she is yet to win a Grand Slam so she may win her maiden title.
Garbine Murgurza is another contender for the title and after getting to the final Wimbledon, I would not be surprised if she made it to this final
From a British prespective I am really hoping that Heather Watson can at least make it third round of this would be great from ranking points of view as she has never been past the first round. Which is a surprise as she won junior US Open.
Johanna Konta has also made the main draw and I think she can realistically make it to the second round.
Laura Robson is also in the main draw but she has been out so long with injury and has not played any warm up tournaments so should be interesting to see how well she does.
The men's draw is more competitive and any of the top four men can win the title. I am hoping that Rafa Nadal will get his act together and get back to his winning ways.
Roger Federer would love to win his 18th title however I don't believe that these days he can consistently win five set matches.
Novak Djokovic is the firm favourite to win his 10th Grand Slam title and I personally would not bet against him but anything can happen.
From a British prespective Andy Murray has a real realistic opportunity of winning his second US Open title. Hopefully he will overcome his semi -final problems to make it to the final and win.
