Bucsa C. / Melichar-Martinez N ML
Doubles starts tomorrow, but taking this early, Bucsa and MM impressed last week when they won the double title in Mexico, without losing a set, and was very dominant in the final.
I think Bucsa loses the singles today, then she can focus only on her doubles where she has a better ranking.
They playing Kreuger and Hsieh, not bad players but they never played before and Kreuger has lost in the 1st round in doubles here the last 3 years, and she have a good chance winning her single, so I think she will be more motivated for that.

He can dominate on the Challenger tour with his serve, but he’s getting exposed on the ATP Tour. He won his first-round match here against Dostanic (never heard of him before), which was his first US Open win (after failing to qualify twice and losing in the first round last year). He’s 3-6 on the ATP Tour in his career and always fails to qualify for the big tournaments. I can’t see him having any shot here against an in-form Luciano.

Crazy only Khachanov that didn't win up 2-0 and 5-2 in the final set, had 5 match points…
Edit: Saw now Diallo lost 3-0, so that feels better. Not so close after all

Ebden/Thompson 2–0
We hit all our doubles plays yesterday—let’s hope we can do the same today.
We’ve got a new power couple on the men’s side:
-
Ebden: Wimbledon, Australian Open & Olympic doubles champion
-
Thompson: last year’s US Open doubles champion
It’s their first year playing together and they’re already 6–1 with a title in ’s-Hertogenbosch on grass.
Cerúndolo is 5–32 in doubles since 2023. He didn’t look great in his two singles matches—both went to 5 sets. Gómez has played a bit more doubles, but at a low level. I can’t see the Argentinian pair having any shot here against the experienced Aussies.

Krawietz / Puetz 2-0
The German pair reached the final here last year and are now both ranked inside the top 10. They’re playing against 43-year-old former #1 Nicolas Mahut (0–5 this year—I honestly thought he had retired) and Mpetshi, ranked #251.
Even if Mpetshi can probably hold his serve, I can’t see them breaking the Germans, and Mahut’s serve should give them plenty of opportunities.
Fun fact: Krawietz/Puetz are 9–1 in winning 2–0 in the first round of every Slam they’ve played together. The only exception? Here in 2023, when they lost in the opening round.

Mektic / Ram 2-0
Another new pair this year is Nikola Mektic and Rajeev Ram—two former world #1s—coming in with fine form after winning Cincinnati.
Ram has won the US Open three times in a row (2021–2023), while Mektic picked up the Auckland title earlier this year and has previous hard-court wins in Shanghai, Indian Wells, and Auckland. He’s also the 2021 Wimbledon champion.
They’re up against two clay-court players who have never played together before, which makes this look like a very tough matchup for the underdogs.
