The 2025 US Open is due to take place between 24 August, 2025 - 7 September 2025. The field is led by defending champion Jannik Sinner.
Sinner won his fourth Grand Slam title just last week when he beat Carlos Alcaraz in the Wimbledon final. He will now return to defend his title which he won by defeating Taylor Fritz 6-3, 6-4, 7-5. He became the fourth and youngest man back then to win both hardcourt singles majors in the same year after Mats Wilander, Roger Federer and Novak Djokovic.
Novak Djokovic lost in the third round to Alexei Popyrin in what was his earliest defeat at the US Open since 2006 and earliest defeat at any major since the 2017 Australian Open.
Since then the dominance of Sinner and Alcaraz has continued with the Italian lifting both the Australian Open and Wimbledon this year. Alcaraz has won the French Open and narrowly lost in that Wimbledon final.

Predictions
Samuel Gill, Head Editor of TennisUpToDate.com sees Jannik Sinner retaining the title and putting his poor Cincinnati behind him in regards to how it ended.
Jannik Sinner for me is the forerunner still and will have some amount of pressure taken off as a result of the Cincinnati Open final where he was unwell and not himself on court. Carlos Alcaraz took the title but in reality it is still not a huge gauge as Alcaraz wasn't as good as Sinner throughout the event.
I still see both though as the real class of the field. They will be hard to stop for sure. Novak Djokovic either goes out early for me or does a late run. While Jack Draper is a bit of an anomaly given his injury as of late. Ben Shelton, Taylor Fritz and even Alexander Zverev I would also throw in the running.
Favourites:
*** Jannik Sinner
*** Jannik Sinner
** Carlos Alcaraz, Novak Djokovic
* Jack Draper, Ben Shelton, Alexander Zverev

Shelton to continue rise after Canada win?

Entry List US Open ATP 2025
Last year also saw American history as Taylor Fritz and Frances Tiafoe became the first tandem in the semi-final since Andre Agassi defeated Robby Ginepri at the 2005 US Open to come from the US. The former also became the first to reach a major final from the States men's wise since Andy Roddick in 2009 and the first since Roddick in 2006.
Fritz, Djokovic among others all return in 2025. As do the likes of Alexander Zverev, Jack Draper, Lorenzo Musetti, Holger Rune, Ben Shelton and Andrey Rublev. This Entry List is only provisional. Nick Kyrgios for instance has took a provisional spot due to a protected ranking but withdrew from Wimbledon. He is due to return at the DC Open in the coming week but it is unknown whether he will play at Flushing Meadows as of right now.

- One step by another step -- WTA continues to 'lose the plot'. Too many hi-tech microphones being installed at most venues!!! Remove them (especially those along the hallways, sidewalks, and pathways throughout the venues. Not to mention (most of all) remove the mic's from the Players/Coaches Box.
mandoist06-11-2026 - Enough of her bullshit. Go marry someone.
mandoist06-11-2026 - Don't you just love this young lady!? We fans often expect athletes to be supermen and superwomen, often forgetting that they WILL GET TIRED! I love Alex's perspective. Tiredness for an athlete should never be viewed as a negative, especially if you are healthy, taking care of your body and mental health and putting in the work. What a mature perspective. Good for you, Alex!Rapunzel05-11-2026
- Jess is absolutely correct! But the disrespect is a trait I have noticed in most of the Russian players. Mirra is good but very immature and lacks humility. Conceivable needs to get a handle on that!Rapunzel05-11-2026
- Having spent weeks and weeks through the years on tour, I can say with confidence that Conchita was (is) one of the very few who realize the surprising level of maturity (and sometimes lack of) which Mirra seems to have developed in such a demanding adult world of Pro-Tennis. While at the same time reminding herself (Conchita, that is) that Mirra is still young and developing mentally and physically. The general public may forget at times, or not at all realize, these modern era young athletes do not have a 'normal' Youth. It's a major sacrifice, among countless sacrifices, these athletes must make. People who blow-off that fact are ignorant and unfair when they blurt out, "They choose fame so they have to put up with the intrusions on their lives". No, they do not.
mandoist05-11-2026 - Okay... someone with a camera was EAVESDROPPING on a private conversation. Shouldn't that be the point of discussion here? Regardless of the sensationalist crap by media, Pegula (and anyone) has a right to an opinion. There used to be an expectation that private conversations were respected, regardless of 'stardom' and whatever other defensive excuses media tries to shove in our faces. Boo-hoo if feelings are hurt. BTW: Having been employed at various tourney venues, etc., I can't tell you how nasty and offensive players can be when discussing their opponents and colleagues... in "private". Well, I could, but won't. I also challenge anyone to deny what Jessica said is false.
mandoist05-11-2026 - Vacherot is Mongasque, rather than Swiss. The tournament was Swiss :DTrwd7702-11-2026
- After a couple decades traveling to IIHF tourneys overseas... our family is done with it... and I will not be the only one!! Bad enough the NHL allows Ovachenko (a Putin Supporter and Campaigner) to live and play in the USA. Let's not forget the STATE SPONSORED RUSSIAN DOPING PROGRAMS still in effect today.
mandoist31-10-2026 - Osaka's mental state apparently does not allow her to reach any more Quarter Finals? I mean, she doesn't really have the time for tennis with all the pre-planning that must go into her 12 year-old "fashion" goals.
