The US Open 2025 gets underway on Sunday, August 24, bringing the tennis world to Flushing Meadows, New York, for the final Grand Chelem tournament of the season, according to reports from international sports platforms.
Flushing Meadows Prepares for the Final Major
Running through September 7, 2025, the fortnight features day and night sessions on the hard courts of the USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center.
Wide-Open Fields in Queens
As the tennis circuit converges on the Queens borough, the tournament opens with wide-open fields in both singles draws.
On the men’s side, Italian world number one and defending champion Jannik Sinner enters as a primary title contender, seeking what would be a historic run in New York.
Bookmakers list Sinner prominently despite a recent defeat to Spain’s Carlos Alcaraz in the Cincinnati Masters final. Alcaraz, who claimed the Roland Garros crown earlier in the season, looks to add another major trophy to his resume following his triumph in Cincinnati.
