Match History and US Open 2019 Draw Analysis

Our prediction of when Federer and Nadal will play is based on the following info:
  • In Session 2, his opening match is against a qualifier. Opening Night has fireworks on Ashe!
  • The US Open tends to alternative Day / Night / Day / Night for the players (not always).
  • Great performance getting to the Wimbledon Final and he is Very Well Rested.
  • He typically plays well at night in his famous "Darth Federer" all-black UNIQLO outfit
  • Primetime ratings for ESPN when he plays at night are always high
  • Over 10 years of scheduling trends at the US Open
We cannot guarantee that the US Open will not change their minds...but it rarely happens. The best way to know for sure is to check the daily Schedule of Play listing.
Important Facts:
  • Federer will be seeded #3 at the US Open and in the upper half with Djokovic.
  • Nadal #2 will be placed in the bottom half
  • Djokovic may face #5 Medvedev in the QF's who has beaten him twice this year.
  • If Nadal and Federer make it through, they will face each other in the Finals!
Federer likely to face these opponents:
 9/6 SF (Medevev), 9/8 (Nadal)



The biggest question is whether it will be during the day session or evening session on those dates.
If you want to be absolutely sure you catch him on the day you attend, then I recommend buying both a Day and an evening ticket. Sell the one that he won't be playing.

He is about an 80% chance he gets put into mostly Evening Sessions.
Typically the men's match is the 2nd match of the night, which starts immediately after the women's match opener that begins at 7pm.

The other best chance to see Federer on the practice courts during the day. He will at least practicing on P1-P5 before any match. Any of these Day tickets will allow you to see many more matches than the evening session. Valid 11AM until ~5PM+.
