The matchups for the 2012 U.S. Open were drawn Thursday and no Ohio-based players made the cut.
Top-ranked Roger Federer looks for his sixth U.S. Open crown in Flushing Meadows, N.Y. and might have to go through Olympics-final opponent Andy Murray, the No. 3 seed, and No. 2 Novak Djokovic to do so.
Federer could face Murray, whom he also faced and beat in the Wimbledon final, in the semfinals and Djokovic, the defending champion, in the finals.
The two-week tournament begins Monday starting at 11 a.m. ET.
On the women's side, top-seeded Victoria Azarenka could face defending champion Sam Stosur in the quarterfinals. Maria Sharapova could encounter Petra Kvitova while Serena Williams could meet Caroline Wozniack. Agnieszka Radwanska and Angelique Kerber could square off down the line.
