The Contenders


Jannik Sinner


The 2024 US Open champion currently holds five Grand Slam titles, going 5-2 in finals with both defeats coming against Carlos Alcaraz.

He has shown a weakness in hot conditions, most notably at the 2026 French Open where he suffered a shock second round defeat to Juan Manuel Cerúndolo after winning the first two sets and leading 5-1 in the third set.

The Italian beat Alexander Zverev in the 2026 Wimbledon final but was forced to withdraw from the US Open due to a right knee injury.
Sinner said: "I’m obviously very sad and disappointed, as New York has a special place in my heart. I was very much looking forward to coming back and playing in the electric atmosphere in front of the great fans there."

Carlos Alcaraz


A two-time US Open champion (2022, 2025), Alcaraz was in sensational form in 2026, claiming his seventh Grand Slam title after winning the Australian Open.

The Spaniard suffered a wrist injury in Barcelona Open, missing the French Open and Wimbledon before returning to action at the US Open. He was on track to defend his title before suffering a 5 sets defeat to Ben Shelton in the quarter-finals.
Alcaraz was positive after his performance in New York: “As I said before the tournament began, my expectation was to go there, compete, play in these kinds of matches, for me being healthy."

"It was close. So I'm just not going to be disappointed about not getting the win at the end. I'm just happy. I'm just proud about myself, about how I fought."

Alexander Zverev


Zverev was living in the shadow of Sinner and Alcaraz but took his chances in 2026. He captured the title at Roland Garros where Sinner went out early and Alcaraz was absent.

The German lost to Sinner in the Wimbledon final before taking advantage in New York, winning the title with Sinner missing due to injury and Alcaraz falling to Ben Shelton in the quarter-finals.
He talked about his journey after lifting the trophy: "I want to thank my team. We went 30 years without winning a Grand Slam title and now we’ve won two within the span of three months.”

Ben Shelton


Shelton came close in 2026 but couldn't stick with Zverev in the US Open final, going down in four sets.

The 23-year-old will surely win a Grand Slam but first has to prove he can consistently beat the top three players in men's tennis.
