De Minaur Suffers US Open Seeding Blow after Cincinnati Boilover The recent Cincinnati Masters defeat has left Australian tennis fans wondering what could have been for Alex de Minaur.
While the world number eight's exit may not seem like a major upset, it is a disappointment to those who had high hopes for his performance.
De Minaur's loss at Cincinnati means he will be seeded in the top eight at Flushing Meadows, a respectable position considering he avoids facing higher ranked players until at least the quarterfinals.
