German tennis star Alexander Zverev secured the 2026 US Open men’s singles title on Sunday after prevailing against fellow competitor Ben Shelton in the final match.
The victory marks a significant milestone in Zverev’s career as he lifted the trophy at Flushing Meadows, adding another Grand Slam championship to his collection. Shelton, representing the United States, pushed for a win but ultimately fell short of dethroning the German finalist.
The outcome was confirmed by reports released on September 14, 2026, highlighting Zverev’s dominance on the hard courts of New York.
Is this really his first US Open? I feel like he’s won at least one before. Can anyone confirm the count?
Shelton played an incredible match though. Hard to believe he didn’t take the title on home soil.
Finally! Zverev needed this win after years of near misses. He truly deserved the trophy this year.
