Alexander Zverev and Ben Shelton will meet in the men's singles final at the US Open in New York on Sunday. The German will play for his second Grand Slam title, while the 23-year-old American will step into his first final at a Grand Slam tournament. idnes.cz ↗
Zverev advanced to the decisive match after defeating Russia's Karen Khachanov in three sets. This is his second US Open final after 2020, and already his third Grand Slam final of this season. Shelton beat fellow American Frances Tiafoe in four sets. Le Figaro ↗
The American will have roughly 24,000 spectators on his side. A victory would allow him to follow in the footsteps of Andy Roddick, who remains the most recent home champion of the US Open men's singles. Twenty-three years have passed since his triumph. Spiegel.de ↗
Shelton will also try to overcome an unfavorable head-to-head record against Zverev. The German has won all five of their previous meetings. Zverev said that the expected support of the American crowd for his opponent does not distract him. Index.hu ↗
The final will thus bring together the experience of the German player with the home-court atmosphere and the rising form of the young American. The outcome will determine whether Zverev adds another Grand Slam title, or Shelton claims a Grand Slam tournament for the first time. SITA ↗
