Even before the first match at the U.S. Open begins, there will be plenty of drama during the draw for each bracket.

The first round kicks off from Queens, New York, on Monday, Aug. 29, but we will know the path for each player three days earlier. Fans and analysts will likely use this time to dream about potential matchups in every round, hoping the players come through to complete those scenarios.

With so much separation at the top in both the men's and women's draws, there will also be plenty of players hoping to avoid big names until the later rounds. There won't be any action, but there is a lot to watch, so here is what you need to know.

 

U.S. Open Draw Date: Friday, Aug. 26

Time: 11:30 a.m. ET

Where: USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center, Queens, N.Y.

Live Stream: WatchESPN



 

As is the custom, the defending champions in each draw will be there to help out the process, per Chris Goldsmith:



Novak Djokovic had a disappointing performance at the Olympics, but he is still the top seed and a favorite to bring home another Grand Slam title.

On the other hand, Flavia Pennetta won't be competing after announcing her retirement immediately following her win at the U.S. Open a year ago. 

While there won't be a defending champion from the women's side of the draw, there will still be plenty of drama as Serena Williams tries to hold onto her tenuous spot as the No. 1 player in the world.

As Russell Fuller of BBC noted, a long run was almost ended last week:



However, Angelique Kerber still has a chance to unseat Williams if she reaches the quarterfinals and the top seed fails to make the finals, according to WTATennis.com. A tournament win for either player would result in a No. 1 ranking the following week.
