Let's Ask Monfils Who Will Win the Jr. U.S. Open Now

Chardy Takes The Championship-- According to reports on Wimbledon.org, after he beat Jeremy Chardy last year in the semifinals, Gael Monfils, now ranked 79th on the ATP tour, predicted that countryman Chardy would win it this year. He did. Unseeded after a disappointing French where he lost in the second round, Chardy dropped his only set in the first round at Wimbledon, and beat Donald Young, the world's number one junior, in the semifinals. There's no question he played the best tennis of any male junior last week, but, as he admits in this story, he's no Monfils, who last year at this time was looking toward the U.S. Open to complete the first junior Grand Slam since Stefan Edberg.

And despite Chardy's impressive run at Wimbledon, there's no reason to think he's established himself as an overwhelming favorite at the U.S. Open. He's a very fine junior, but there are a host of those, and who knows, maybe one of them will emerge at Flushing Meadows, as Andrew Murray did last year.
