So, who are the past winners over the last few years at the US Open? When did they triumph, and who was against them? Allow GOAL to give you all the details as we look back at the history of this tennis major.

Who has won the US Open?

Novak Djokovic (2011, 2015, 2018, 2023)
A career golden slam for the Serbian has been secured following his win over Carlos Alcaraz in the gold-medal match at the Paris 2024 Olympic Games, and the most successful men’s tennis star of the Open Era will be back to try and extend his record this time again. Djokovic has enjoyed four wins here, but perhaps none sweeter than his first, when he defeated Rafael Nadal in a 6–2 6–4 6–7 (3–7) 6–1 contest in 2011.

Coco Gauff (2023)
At one point the golden girl of rising tennis stars, Gauff broke onto the scene when she defeated Venus Williams at Wimbledon in 2019 and reached the fourth round. But she arguably did not realize her potential until she went all the way at Flushing Meadows last year for a first career major title, aged just 19, as she came from behind to defeat Aryna Sabalenka in a taut 2–6 6–3 6–2 encounter.

Carlos Alcaraz (2022)
The Spaniard is barely into his twenties and yet already has four grand slam titles to his name, including the US Open. In 2022, Alcaraz saw off a fightback from Casper Ruud, winning 6–4 2–6 7–6 (7–1) 6–3 for his first major. While he has since added three more, he will be among the favorites to pick up another success when he takes to the court at Arthur Ashe Stadium later this year.

Iga Swiatek (2022)
A bronze-medal finish at the Paris 2024 Olympic Games won’t have deterred the Pole as she heads back across the Atlantic looking for a sixth career grand slam title. Four of her successes have come at the French Open, but Swiatek’s lone win across the other three saw her take victory against Ons Jabeur in straight sets in 2022, though she did need a tiebreaker finish in the second set with her 6–2 7–6 (7–5) win.
