The U.S. Open is the final Grand Slam tournament of each tennis season, and 21-year-old Ethan Quinn can speak for every American when he says he loves being able to compete on home soil after a long year of traveling.

The United States led all nations in main draw entries, with 30 players in the men’s and women’s singles fields combined.
