Seeking to complete the career Grand Slam, Rafael Nadal will be the top-seeded man when the U.S. Open starts next week, while Roger Federer will come to Flushing Meadows seeded second.
Nadal, who won the French Open and Wimbledon this year, is seeded first at the U.S. Open for the second time in three years. He has never made it past the semifinals.
The women's seedings have been delayed one day because of a rainout of Sunday's final at the Rogers Cup in Montreal. On Monday, world No. 2 Caroline Wozniacki defeated Vera Zvonareva to win that tournament. It appears Wozniacki, who lost to Kim Clijsters in last year's final, will get the top seed at the U.S. Open because Serena Williams, the world's top-ranked player, has withdrawn while recovering from surgery to repair cuts on her right foot.
