WATCH: US Open champs descend on New York for Slam preparation
Former US Open champion Rafael Nadal, Naomi Osaka, Daniil Medvedev and Stan Wawrinka have all taken to the courts at Flushing Meadows as build-up to the New York Slam continues.
Fans already got a glimpse of four-time winner Nadal on Sunday, more than a week before the main draw kicks off on 29th August.
And the world number three was in practice action again on Monday as he looks to claim a third Major title of the year in New York.
