Sabalenka & Alcaraz top dogs, Sinner & Swiatek chasing: US Open conclusions The 2025 US Open is done and dusted -- with Aryna Sabalenka and Carlos Alcaraz cementing their status as the world's best players.

The final Grand Slam event of 2025 is done and dusted -- but what did we learn from the #USOpen?

My look at Aryna Sabalenka and Carlos Alcaraz's triumphs and other key talking points from the past fortnight ⬇️

Carlos Alcaraz can end Jannik Sinner's world No 1 reign in US Open final There is more than the US Open title on the line when Jannik Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz do battle in New York.

It's not just the US Open title on the line between Jannik Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz -- with the world No 1 ranking at stake 🍿

#Tennis #USOpen

Has Carlos Alcaraz ever had a better serving tournament than this?

Feels like night and day compared to how often he was put through the wringer at SW19. #USOpen

And still, no man in the Open Era has won the #USOpen title without dropping a set.

Can’t imagine Donald Trump was in line for a warm reception from the US Open crowd, but it might be even worse than expected after this.

Farcical. #USOpen

Can Jannik Sinner become 4th man to reach four Slam finals in the same year? Jannik Sinner will look to become just the fourth man in the Open Era to reach four Grand Slam finals in the same season.

In the Open Era, only three men have reached all four Grand Slam tournament finals in an individual season.

Jannik Sinner can make that four at the #USOpen on Friday ⬇️

Sabalenka and Anisimova also met at the Australian Open before (2019 and 2024) so complete the Grand Slam sweep.

Could be a brilliant final. #USOpen

Second straight year in which two WTA players will meet at three straight Grand Slams:

2024: Paolini def Andreescu at RG, SW19, USO.
2025: Sabalenka vs Anisimova at RG, SW19...and now the #USOpen final.

Hadn't happened since 2007 (Serena-Henin) before 2024.

How Alcaraz & Sinner can make history with 3rd Grand Slam final of 2025 Could Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner meet in a third Grand Slam final this season? An Open Era record would be set if they do.

In the Open Era, there have been 17 seasons where the same two men have met in two Grand Slam finals -- but no seasons where the same men have met in three Slam finals.

Will Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner make history at the #USOpen this week? ⬇️

53 days between Amanda Anisimova losing 6-0, 6-0 to Swiatek at Wimbledon and then producing *that* performance today to turn the tables.

A brilliant win. #USOpen

Novak Djokovic, aged 38 and perhaps not at his best physically, is still conclusively the third-best player on the ATP right now.

Remarkable for him, but a little eyebrow-raising for anyone who's not Alcaraz or Sinner. #USOpen

Plenty to be said (and I'm sure will be said) about Coco Gauff, but that was scintillating from Naomi Osaka.

Tennis is so much healthier with her in it and playing well. #USOpen

Krejcikova could barely make the court for the first hour of this match, but all eight of those MP saves were incredible.

So, so clutch and she’s probably the favourite to win this now. #USOpen

Alexander Zverev's Grand Slam dream looks dead after US Open exit Alexander Zverev's Grand Slam hopes will be pushed back into 2026 after his US Open exit, but will the German ever get his hands on a major?

Last night's #USOpen loss to Felix Auger-Aliassime suggests that Alexander Zverev is getting further away -- rather than nearer -- to a maiden Slam title. ⬇️

Absolutely gutting for Shelton. In the form of his life at his home major. Awful timing. #USOpen

This looks bad for Ben Shelton. Would be a big blow for the tournament if he’s forced out here. #USOpen

Casper Ruud's 2022 US Open run remains the only time he's reached a Slam QF outside of Roland Garros.

Astonishing for someone who's been consistently near the top for a number of seasons. #USOpen

Alarming Coco Gauff double fault stats revealed ahead of US Open campaign Coco Gauff's partnership Matt Daly saw her win some of the biggest titles in tennis, but the reason for their split is clear.

Coco Gauff has won the WTA Finals and the French Open in the past year - but her serving stats provide a clear indicator as to why she changed coaches ahead of her #USOpen campaign ⬇️

Iga Swiatek breaks incredible Seles record with dominant US Open win Iga Swiatek broke an incredible WTA Tour record previously held by Monica Seles during her dominant US Open Round 1 win.

Easy to forget amid the photographer drama, but Daniil Medvedev will leave 2025 with a *1-4* record at Grand Slams.

Pretty shocking for someone who was in the Australian Open final just last year. #USOpen

Hell of a moment, hell of a win for Alex Eala. Wow! #USOpen
