Analysis of this year’s draw ahead of ‘wide open’ tournament
21 years since an American man won a Grand Slam
U.S. tennis, particularly on the men’s side, has been going through something of a lean patch in recent years.
The statistic that perhaps best highlights that is that there has not been an American winner of the men’s US Open title since Andy Roddick all the way back in 2003. For reference, Ben Shelton was less than a year old when that happened!
In fact, that is the last time an American man won a Grand Slam at all. That triumph in 2003 meant a U.S. man had won seven of the last 11 titles at Flushing Meadows after the dominance of Pete Sampras and Andre Agassi.
There are four U.S. men among the seeds at the US Open this year — Fritz (12), Shelton (13), Korda (16) and Tiafoe (20) — but it would be considered a major upset if any of them were to lift the trophy at the end of the fortnight.
Congratulations 🎉 to Coco at la Tribune Concorde with the trophy 😁 #RolandGarros…WATCH THE SPEECH THAT IS MAKING WAVES ON THE INTERNET…
Coco Gauff staged a remarkable comeback to defeat world number one Aryna Sabalenka 6-7(5), 6-2, 6-4 in the French Open final, winning her second Grand Slam title 🙌❤ The 21-year-old avenged her 2022 loss at Roland Garros and repeated her US Open triumph over Sabalenka with a determined and mature performance 🙌👏💪✨
