510:). We don't need to list all of the players, and this list in particular is not so useful because it is not ordered by seed or alphabetically. (I don't like the idea of ordering by place in the draw without the draw itself. It just looks random.) By contrast, the lists of seeds are ordered by seed (and you can also sort them by pre-tournament ranking and post-tournament ranking points). It also contains more useful information in that it also shows who all the best players lost to, and the changes in the points and rankings (something that is not discussed enough as is; see the comments on the points section below).
523:, etc. My point of view in the latter was more based around getting the article in good enough shape to be posted to ITN, though in hindsight I would say that the table you suggest (which was removed from that page and this one) is probably the more helpful one. I'd appreciate some advice as to what path to take here - perhaps replace the existing table with the one you suggest, though have it auto-collapsed?
42:
560:
From reading those discussions, my impression is that many of the complaints were about removing the two singles seeds charts. I don't think the complaints at ITN were about any individual charts either, but rather there being too many charts in general (which I agree with). Overall, I'd stick to the
1049:
Overall, it's in okay shape, but certainly on track. It's especially good that it has prose to go through the events when most articles don't have that at all. The types of sources used are mostly good, aside from some formatting issues. I'll also note that you can take what time you need to address
614:
Because COVID-19 precautions necessitated the cancellation of the qualification matches, the ATP and WTA Rankings were used to determine entry into the tournament; <<<=== This isn't quite right. The difference is they determined all of the entries instead of just most of them.
906:
Another major point is that this section doesn't explain enough of the points system (i.e. the 52-week system). This is more complicated than usual because of how the points system was changed. (Also, what are these points for? The fact that the points determine the rankings should be
304:
Osaka wore similar masks for each of her other six matches, each with a different name of a Black
American killed as a result of police brutality. <<<=== Minor note: The majority (I think 5 of 7) were Black Americans killed as a result of police brutality, but not all of
514:
I really have no opinion one way or the other, and of course my main goal is to help out our readers as much as possible, but I am hesitant to mess with these tables at all due to the amount of debate that seems to spark whenever someone does so. See
890:"women's singles players got 240, 130, 70, and 10 for an exit in the first four rounds" <<<=== Something like this does not seem necessary. You don't need to transcribe exactly what's written in the chart. That's the point of the chart.
685:
Tournament rules necessitated that
Djokovic default the match <<<=== I think "Djokovic was defaulted", not "Djokovic defaulted". I'm not sure it was required either? I think the umpire (or another official?) has to make the
372:"qualifying matches, mixed doubles and junior matches would not be played." <<<=== I think "there were none of these draws" is more representative than "these draws were not played" (the latter implies something more like
885:"All men's and women's doubles players that made it past the first round received half the points of their singles counterparts." <<<=== Something like this is good in that it summarizes the points distribution in general
659:
How you refer to seeds is not consistent. Sometimes they are labelled as "-seed", other times as "No. #". I generally prefer saving "No. #" for ranking rather than seed, as it's commonly used in expressions like "world No.
413:
I agree with mentioning that there were draw changes in both this section and the preceding section; however, as is, it's a bit repetitive. One of the sections (probably the first) should be more detailed than the
831:(3a) Either 3a or 3b: With Williams, Azarenka and Tsvetana Pironkova all winning their fourth round matches, it marked the first time in Grand Slam history that 3 mothers had reached the quarterfinals.
264:(1) A lot of top-ranked players missing the tournament in general, such as Nadal, Barty, Halep (due to the pandemic) and Federer (due to injury); and Andreescu (due to one or both of these reasons)
309:
Fixed – I replaced with "...African-American who died as a result of unjust violence from police or other citizens in the United States...", if "unjust" is a NPOV violation, I can remove that.
294:
Something in general to keep in mind is that virtually everything in the lead should be repeated in the body of the article. Even now, that's not the case. (Andreescu is not mentioned again.)
497:(7) Normally I'd summarize the withdrawals here, but in this case, most of them might fit better in the pandemic section above. Federer, and maybe a few others, still probably fit in here.
492:(6) Summarize the wild cards, PRs, and players who weren't initial direct acceptances. (Murray and Clijsters are worth noting, for instance. This overlaps with the former winners point.)
1096:, I believe I've addressed all concerns above - if you have comments about the doubles/wheelchair sections or about any of my recent changes, I'd appreciate if you could let me know.

I have addressed many of the smaller things, like copyediting, sourcing, and some formatting changes. I'll most likely get into the more involved stuff in the next few days.

Finally, another tennis article! And it's a tournament article! We could use another one of those as a GA. Noting that we already have one modern tournament article as a GA:

same recommendation to replace the singles player lists with the singles seed charts. I don't see the need to have them auto-collapsed, but I'm more indifferent on that.
241:(Took this out of the "Tournament" section and moved it to the lead, with a few tweaks - I didn't want to be repetitive and it seemed slightly out of place where it was.)
810:
Some of the points on the draw page are worth adding. I would recommend: (and you may need to integrate it into the paragraphs rather than just putting it at the end)

Why did them using the
Grandstand for the Cincinnati Open mean they couldn't also use it for this tournament (given that they were different weeks)?

Some of the links are missing access dates, and how certain websites are referred to isn't always consistent (probably should leave out "www.").

as an FA, but the format of that article is very different because of the times and I don't think it will add so much insight for this article.

99:
156:
362:
Also: "The tournament consisted only of the men's and women's singles and doubles draws" <<<=== there were wheelchair draws too
942:
For the prize money, I'd recommend talking more about the reductions at different levels (and again, not just transcribing the chart).
821:(1) With her first round win over Kristie Ahn, Serena Williams surpassed Chris Evert for the most match wins (102) in US Open history.
419:
Having a paragraph to go through the key players who missed tournament because of the pandemic might go here as the second paragraph.
467:(1) How are the players in the tournament determined? (In particular, what were the direct acceptance cutoffs in the singles draws?)
826:(2) 29 of the 32 seeded women progressed to the second round; the most since the US Open changed from 16 seeds to 32 seeds in 2001.
838:(3b) Either 3a or 3b: The semifinal between Williams and Azarenka was the first semifinal between 2 mothers in Grand Slam history.
