Serbia's world tennis number one Novak Djokovic has been confirmed as the top seed for next week's U.S. Open.
Djokovic has never won the US Open but has been in great form this year, losing just two matches all season and winning the Australian Open and Wimbledon.
The defending US Open champion Rafa Nadal is seeded second as tournament organizers stuck with their practice of following the official world rankings to decide the seedings.
Switzerland's Roger Federer, a five-time US Open winner, is seeded third, ahead of Britain's Andy Murray, the only player in the top four yet to win a grand slam.
