The US Open began on 24 August at Flushing Meadows, with world number ones Carlos Alcaraz and Iga Świątek headlining the tournament. Defending champion Jannik Sinner and veteran Novak Djokovic are among the favorites in the men’s field, while Coco Gauff carries home-crowd hopes in the women’s draw.
The tournament is not only a sporting highlight—it also underscores how tennis’ new generation is clashing with established legends, a dynamic closely watched across the Adria region, where Djokovic remains the sport’s dominant figure.
