A finale with the scent of revenge. Two years later, Daniil Medvedev and Novak Djokovic meet in the final of the US Open, Sunday September 10, at Flushing Meadows. In 2021, the Russian got the better of the Serbian, who had cracked under pressure, while he was aiming for the calendar Grand Slam. This time, Novak Djokovic advances without this sword of Damocles over his head, even if he managed to climb to the final of the four major tournaments of the year.
Winner of the Australian Open and Roland-Garros this season, the Serb is already guaranteed to become world number one again on Monday, at the expense of Carlos Alcaraz. In the event of victory in the Big Apple, he would above all join Margaret Court on the roof of world tennis, with 24 Grand Slam titles, an absolute record held by the Australian.
