Men’s Singles: Jannik Sinner from Italy won his first Grand Slam title, defeating American Taylor Fritz in straight sets (6-3, 6-4, 7-5).
Aryna Sabalenka captured her first US Open title in 2024, defeating American Jessica Pegula in a gripping final. Sabalenka won in straight sets, 7-5, 7-5, at Arthur Ashe Stadium. Despite Pegula mounting a fierce comeback in both sets, Sabalenka’s powerful and aggressive play secured her victory. This win marked Sabalenka’s third Grand Slam title and solidified her dominance on hard courts, having already won back-to-back Australian Open titles in 2023 and 2024.
The 2024 US Open had several surprising outcomes. Defending champion Carlos Alcaraz was unexpectedly knocked out in the second round, creating shockwaves across the tournament. Iga Świątek, another top seed, was defeated in the quarterfinals after a string of uncharacteristic errors. Emma Navarro, a rising star, upset top-seeded Coco Gauff in the fourth round, marking one of the tournament’s most stunning results. On the men’s side, Jack Draper made a surprising run to the semifinals, highlighting an unpredictable year.
At the 2024 US Open, Novak Djokovic faced a surprising third-round exit. He was defeated by Australia’s Alexei Popyrin in four sets, with a score of 4-6, 4-6, 6-2, 4-6. This loss came as a major upset, as Djokovic was aiming to win his 25th Grand Slam title following his gold medal victory at the Paris Olympics earlier in the year. Despite winning the third set convincingly, Djokovic couldn’t maintain momentum, allowing Popyrin to secure his biggest career win.
