NEW YORK -- The US Open -- and the 2016 Grand Slam season -- are history.Sure, there are 15 WTA events left on the calendar and 14 on the mens side, plus the Davis Cup semifinals and final, but it all feels a little anticlimactic.As a public service, only 127 days before the first ball at the Australian Open, were going to give you tomorrows news today.Here are 10 bold predictions for the 2017 season:Rafa wins the French Open: After taking nine titles in 10 years at Roland Garros, Rafael Nadal has come up painfully short the past two years. He got to the quarters in 2015, but withdrew from this years tournament after his second-round match with a wrist injury. Healthy again, he plows through the field like its 2005. This gives Rafa 10 French Open titles, making him the first (and last?) to hit double digits in a single Slam. It is an immensely popular victory, akin to Roger Federers sentimental win at Wimbledon in 2012.A match made in ... Mercurial Australian Nick Kyrgios, in need of a coach, turns to equally mercurial American John McEnroe. Madness, fireworks -- and wonder of wonders -- great tennis ensues. Its such a crazy combination it actually works. But they part ways after Wimbledon, and McEnroe joins the camp of ... mercurial Frenchman Gael Monfils, another player he criticized here at the US Open.Serenas over-under: She won the first three Slams of 2015, but Williams has gone 1-for-5 since. After taking off the fall Asian swing, the 35-year-old resurfaces in 2017 and plays decently into the summer. Just as she did this year, Serena wins at Wimbledon -- the only major she will win -- giving her a stellar eight titles at the All England Club. Jay Z and Beyonce watch from the Royal Box.Noles over-under: Novak Djokovic, on the other hand, is still in his prime, even though he turns 30 before the French Open. He wins in Melbourne (for the seventh time, when the other 127 players in the draw abruptly withdraw), then takes the title at Wimbledon for his fourth. That pushes his Grand Slam singles total to 14, one behind Nadal -- who had just won the French a few weeks earlier -- and only three behind Federers all-time total.Halep and Raonic break through: Congratulations to your first-time Grand Slam winners. Simona Halep, who reached the final of Roland Garros in 2014, finally locks it down in Paris. Milos Raonic, a finalist at Wimbledon in 2016, finds a way to win in New York.Federer returns in style: No, he doesnt actually add to his Grand Slam singles titles, but just seeing Federer hovering effortlessly around on the worlds greatest courts is deeply comforting. He gets to the semis at Roland Garros and Wimbledon, but thats as far as it goes.Vika makes a splash: After giving birth at the end of 2016, Victoria Azarenka, the 28-year-old mother, steps on the court in Cincinnati, where she was a champion four years earlier. This sets her up for a euphoric return to the Grand Slam stage in New York.Delpo stays healthy: Gangly Argentine?Juan Martin del Potro, survivor of four wrist surgeries, continues to progress. His confidence increases, and by the French Open, hes hitting those nasty, two-handed backhands that helped him win the 2009 US Open. Del Potro makes the final in New York again, but loses to Raonic.Surprise! Sharapovas back: Speaking of returns, Maria Sharapova gets her two-year sentence reduced via appeal. After serving one full year, she comes back for the spring clay campaign and is part of the draw in Paris, the only Slam where she is a two-time champion.Venus bids farewell: Venus Williams, at the age of 37, dominates the fall Asian circuit, winning three titles in China, then announces her retirement. She says shes done as a player, but will immediately begin coaching ... Nick Kyrgios. J.J. Watt Jersey . - Raiders general manager Reggie McKenzie never doubted he would bring back coach Dennis Allen for a third year despite back-to-back 4-12 records. Kevin Johnson Jersey . -- Aaron Murray threw for 408 yards and three touchdowns, ran for another score, and led No. http://www.cheaptexansjerseyssale.com/ . "Jeff is a hard worker who was an important special-teams contributor for us last season," said Stamps GM John Hufnagel. Dylan Cole Jersey . The 26-year-old Ireland striker, who has four goals this season, has signed a three-and-a-half year contract with his new club. D.J. Reader Jersey . -- Ryan Getzlaf grabbed the three pucks wrapped in tape and held them up to his chest in the Anaheim Ducks dressing room for a celebration nine seasons in the making. TORONTO -- Ryan Hunter-Reays last race was just five days ago, but its already a distant memory for the veteran IndyCar driver.Hunter-Reay finished last at last weekends Iowa Corn 300, completing just 105 of 300 laps due to engine issues.Ive almost burned that one out of my memory, he said Thursday.The 35-year-old will aim to get back on course in Toronto this Sunday when he races at a track thats been kind to him in the past. Hunter-Reay led for 36 laps and won here in 2012.Its great to be back in Toronto, Hunter-Reay said. This place has some great memories here and it was a big part of our championship run in 2012.Hunter-Reay finished fourth at Road America on June 26, and was in the top 10 for both races in Detroit. But even with six top-10 finishes overall, he is still looking for a win and is 13th in the standings.Theres no other racing series like this in the world and thats what I like about it is every week -- you need to change and adapt and be ready to really think outside the box on how you set the car up, how you need to be as a driver and hhow you need to approach the race weekend making changes each week, Hunter-Reay said.dddddddddddd Its a true challenge.Hunter-Reay has looked good on street tracks this season. Aside from his success in Detroit, he started off the IndyCar schedule with a third-place finish in St. Petersburg.The 2012 series champion then went on a bit of a rough stretch, including a 24th place finish at the Indianapolis 500, a race which he won in 2014.Hunter-Reay said track positioning will be very important this weekend.Its such a small window here to get it right, because of the bumps, to get those shock settings and spring setting and the damper settings just right, youre talking three-, four-tenths of a second here, Hunter-Reay said. If youre out of that window, youre basically, relatively speaking in IndyCar terms, out to lunch. You have to be right there within a tenth or two of a second to be fighting for that pole position on Saturday.
