Most notably, last year's winners Jannik Sinner (who recently prevailed at Wimbledon) and Aryna Sabalenka — who both happen to be ranked No. 1 in the world — are locked in, ready to rally and hoping to repeat.
No. 2s Coco Gauff (who took home the US Open title in 2023) and Carlos Alcaraz (the 2022 victor) are also set to take part in the annual competition that prominently features a sweet, little cocktail known as the Honey Deuce.
Reigning Wimbledon champ Iga Swiatek, Wimbledon semifinalist Taylor Fritz, Australian Open winner Madison Keys, 2023 US Open semifinalist Ben Shelton and No. 4 Jessica Pegula round out the top spots in the lineup.
Also slated to serve and slice at courts off the 7 train these next few weeks are 16 wild cards (eight in each singles draw) and 32 qualifiers (16 men along with 16 women) duking it out to earn spots in the Qualifying Tournament over the course of US Open Fan Week, which kicks off Aug. 18.

Ben Shelton reaches first career Masters 1000 semifinals at National Bank Open
Ben Shelton reached his first Masters 1000 semifinal on Tuesday with a quarterfinal win over Alex de Minaur, 6-3, 6-4. After needing three sets to get his 100th ATP Tour win over Flavio Cobolli in the previous round, Shelton cruise to win No. 101. He found control of his serve once again and got the job done in 91 minutes. Shelton had 11 aces and eight forehand winners, while de Minaur dropped 28 unforced errors as his seven-game win streak crumbled. The irony here is that de Minaur is regarded as one of the better returners on the tour. If there's a game designed to slow down Shelton, it's de Minaur's, but not on Tuesday. Shelton won the break battle, 2-1. He'll face the only American ranked higher than him, World No. 4 Taylor Fritz, after the other semifinal between Alexander Zverev and Karen Khachanov, which is scheduled not before 7 p.m. ET. Ben Shelton's ATP Ranking Defeating de Minaur gives Shelton a firm grasp on the No. 7 spot in the ATP rankings. The live rankings have him at 3,720 points with a chance to add 250 more with a win over Fritz on Wednesday night. Winning the whole tournament would give him 4,320 in the next update, which is enough to pass legend Novak Djokovic for the No. 6 spot. Ahead of Djokovic are the top five of Jack Draper (4,650), Fritz (5,525), Alexander Zverev (6,380), Carlos Alcacarz (8,600) and Jannik Sinner (12,030). Those top three are pretty well out of reach, but it's time for Shelton to start plotting his ascent to the top five. Fritz and Zverev are both alive in this tournament; beating both would be a good step toward that accomplishment. After Toronto The Cincinnati Masters starts on Thursday, but Shelton doesn't have to play until the weekend thanks to a first-round bye. An extra day or two of rest between back-to-back 1,000-point Majors can make a huge difference. Shelton made it to the quarterfinals in Cincinnati a year ago, losing to Zverev in three sets. Shelton won't compete in the Winston-Salem 250, giving him at least a week off until the US Open starts. He's played his best tennis in Grand Slams this season, and Shelton will be a home-court favorite as one of the top Americans in the field. The US Open begins on Aug. 24 and finishes on Sept. 7.

U.S. Open Announces Highest Player Compensation In Tennis History
The United States Tennis Association announced that the 2025 U.S. Open will offer the largest purse in tennis history, being the first tennis event to reach $90 million in total player compensation. This amount tops the total $75 million in 2024, the previous highest purse in tennis history, an increase of 20 percent. Men's and women's singles champions at the 2025 U.S. Open will earn $5 million, up 39 percent from the $3.6 million in 2024, making it the largest winning payout in the sport. The Open runs Aug. 18-Sept. 7. In addition to the increase for the champions in the singles Main Draw, finalists ($2.5 million, an increase of 39 percent), semifinalists ($1.26 million, an increase of 26 percent), quarterfinalists ($660,000, an increase of 25 percent) and Round of 16 competitors ($400,000, an increase of 23 percent) will all see substantial growth. This follows years of a strategic focus on redistribution to the early rounds and Qualifying Tournament to provide meaningful payouts to all players. Men's and women's doubles purses also are significantly increased in an effort to support the players competing in these championships, up 23 percent to $4.78 million from $3.89 million in 2024. For the first time ever, the winning teams from the Men's Doubles, Women's Doubles and Mixed Doubles Championships will earn $1 million in prize money. The Men's and Women's Qualifying tournaments' prize money will increase to a record $8 million, up 10 percent for this year. In addition to prize money, as has been the case in recent years, the US Open has made an effort to help reduce out-of-pocket expenses for all competitors in all professional Main Draw and Qualifying events. All players will receive a travel stipend of $1,000, as well as two hotel rooms in the official player hotel (or $600 per day if the player chooses to lodge at another accommodation), resulting in $5 million in overall support. In addition, players will receive free racquet stringing of up to five racquets per round. Novak Djokovic, who has career earnings of nearly $200 million and works with the PTPA to advocate for players, said in 2023: 'I'm fine for this life and many other lives. We all definitely want to see a change at the base level because the 150th player on the planet struggles and often has to travel without a coach. People don't realize how expensive this sport is.' The full breakdown of US Open prize money is below: Men's & Women's Singles Main Draw Men's & Women's Doubles Main Draw (per team) Mixed Doubles (per team) Men's & Women's Singles Qualifying

Sinner lukewarm on expanded Cincinnati format
Jannik Sinner on Wednesday gave tepid approval to the 12-day jumbo version of the ATP-WTA Cincinnati Masters while confessing that he would actually prefer to keep the event to the usual one week length. The world number one will be defending his title at the final big event prior to the August 24 start of the US Open. Extending the ongoing Canada event - and Cincinnati - to 12 days with 96-player draws also means that WTA and ATP events in Canada will stage unorthodox finals on Thursday while play is beginning in Cincinnati. Sinner said that given the choice he would opt for the classic system of one-week events for an increasingly crowded calendar. "We (top players) cannot control everything," the Italian said. "The fans now have two weekends to hopefully watch some good tennis. "That is exactly what we need in this sport." But the Wimbledon champion who skipped Canada to rest after his triumph two weeks earlier in the final at the All England Club over Carlos Alcaraz added: "I would prefer a one-week event, it's something that I like. "But it's OK, I'm here and I'm very happy." Other top 10 players, including Novak Djokovic and Alex de Minaur, have also complained in recent days about the wholesale calendar rewrite which has the enthusiastic endorsement of the ATP and WTA. Sinner said that he enjoyed his time away from the courts, spending time at home with family and friends. "Then it was back to practice to try and get as ready as possible for the US swing." He said Wimbledon, where he beat Alcaraz after losing to the Spaniard at Roland Garros, "felt very, very special." str/bb
