US Open Final today: Alexander Zverev - Ben Shelton
Shelton could end a 23-year US drought, precisely in front of a home crowd. Or will the top-seeded German win? LIVE info:
At the US Open on Sunday (from 8:00 PM CET in the LIVE ticker), the coveted men's singles title is at stake!
The final in Flushing Meadows will be contested by Alexander Zverev and US local favorite Ben Shelton, who is sure to have the crowd's support.
For the USA, it's also about ending a 23-year drought. Since Andy Roddick at the US Open in 2003, no American man has managed to win a Grand Slam tennis tournament.
The US Open final is uncharted territory for Shelton. It is the first Grand Slam final for the 23-year-old - currently world number nine.
Zverev, on the other hand, is targeting the second Grand Slam title of his career, having won the French Open in 2026. He already reached the final of the US Open in 2020 but was defeated by Dominic Thiem in five sets.
Regardless of whether Zverev wins or loses the final, the 29-year-old German will remain in second place in the world rankings behind Jannik Sinner. Shelton will definitely appear in fourth place for the first time next week.
