Briefly

The main draw of the US Open 2025 begins Sunday, August 24 at the USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Centre in Flushing Meadows, Queens, New York. The women's singles final is scheduled for Saturday, September 6 and the men's singles final for Sunday, September 7. The tournament is played on hard courts. The mixed doubles category was rescheduled a week earlier, featuring exhibition-style pairings of top men's and women's singles players. Jannik Sinner is the top-seeded, top-ranked player and defending champion, having won two of this year's three majors. Sinner seeks a fifth Grand Slam title after an injury-forced retirement in Cincinnati followed by a public practice session. Carlos Alcaraz, a former US Open champion, carries a 54-6 record and the Cincinnati title into New York and aims to match Sinner's season.
