LONDON : Andy Roddick's U.S. Open triumph in 2003 remains the last time an American man won a Grand Slam title but Frances Tiafoe believes the current crop of players could soon end the drought.

On Saturday, Jenson Brooksby, 21, Brandon Nakashima, 20, and 11th seed Taylor Fritz, 24, will all hope to join them while qualifier Jack Sock will fly the flag for the older generation. "Playing great tennis. Guys are just good. Most of us were seeded, most seeded in Paris too. We're playing great tennis. I think we always feed off each other," he added.

With so many players pushing for their big breakthrough moment, Tiafoe says it has created a healthy competition.
