About US Open - Men
The 2024 US Open concluded with an unforgettable final, where Jannik Sinner claimed his second Grand Slam title, defeating Taylor Fritz in straight sets (6-3, 6-4, 7-5). Sinner’s victory made him the first Italian player to win multiple Grand Slams in the Open Era. The tournament saw unexpected early exits from top contenders like Carlos Alcaraz, the reigning Roland-Garros and Wimbledon champion, and Novak Djokovic, who was fresh off his Olympic gold win. Alcaraz was shocked by Botic van de Zandschulp, while Djokovic fell to Alexei Popyrin in a series of stunning upsets that shook up the draw.
With these major names out, new challengers like Frances Tiafoe and Jack Draper seized the opportunity, making impressive runs to the semi-finals. In the end, however, it was Sinner’s brilliant form, paired with a flawless performance under pressure, that allowed him to capture the title and complete his sweep of the hard-court season in 2024.
The tournament began with several surprises, as Stefanos Tsitsipas, Felix Auger-Aliassime, and Holger Rune all exited in the early rounds. As the field narrowed, the spotlight shifted to Sinner and Fritz. While Fritz's journey to his first Grand Slam final was the talk of the tournament, Sinner’s dominance on the hard courts was undeniable, especially after weathering controversy surrounding his off-court drug testing scandal.
Noteworthy performances included Alex de Minaur, reaching his third straight major quarter-final, and Ben Shelton, who pushed Tiafoe in an intense five-set match. However, it was Tiafoe and Draper who lit up New York with their strong campaigns. Despite their admirable runs, they fell short in the semi-finals, setting the stage for a thrilling final between Sinner and Fritz.
This year's US Open offered drama, surprises, and excellence, cementing Sinner’s place as the player to beat on hard courts. As we look ahead to the next Grand Slam, all eyes will be on the Australian Open, where the world's best will once again compete for tennis supremacy.
