I think the US Open will be a very tough test for the big 3, players like Thiem, Wawrinka, Tsitsipas can absolutely beat any of the big 3 on a good day. Wawrinka looks like he is getting back after knee surgery and given his ranking he would be an early round match up for someone. Even Kyrgios, Felix , Cilic , Shapo will be much harder to beat at the US Open than Clay or grass.
I don't think Federer is at his peak, he is playing good but in 2006 he went 90-1 versus everyone not named Nadal (2-4 vs Nadal woot). A prime Federer doesn't lose to Thiem at IW and I love Thiem's game.
