Overview

  • Organizers delayed the start to 2:30 pm ET due to security measures for President Donald Trump’s attendance, the first visit by a sitting U.S. president to a US Open final since 2000.
  • Carlos Alcaraz reaches the final without dropping a set and is into his eighth consecutive final across events.
  • The winner will leave New York as world No. 1, with Alcaraz reclaiming the top ranking if he wins.
  • This is their third Grand Slam final this season, a first in the Open era for the same two men within one year.
  • Jannik Sinner, this year’s Australian Open and Wimbledon champion, became the youngest of the Open era to make all four major finals in a single season after defeating Félix Auger-Aliassime in four sets.
