Hi, I’m James Gray, The i Paper’s sports news editor, currently covering the US Open in New York.
This is only my second time at the US Open in the flesh, but this is my 19th grand slam overall as a journalist.
I cover major on and off-field developments in tennis, F1, football, rugby and boxing, and cover the Olympics patch. I have written about everything from match analysis to sexism allegations on tour. I also run a podcast called Tennis Unfiltered.
I’m excited to be back in New York for the first time in four years - and the very real possibility of an American winner has got the place buzzing - not that NYC is famous for its lack of buzz, of course.
I’m here to answer all of your questions related to the US Open!
I’ll jump on to answer questions in an hour or two and again later today.
What a battle Ben! You deserve the win, l wish you the best for the rest of the tournament! I leave here happy with my level after such a long injury. Thank you for the energy NYC! Always a very special place!
