US Open 2026: Carlos Alcaraz, Alexander Zverev Lead Men’s Singles Draw
With World No: With World No.1 Jannik Sinner out of action due to an injury, Grand Slam titleholders Carlos Alcaraz and Alexander Zverev will be among the main contenders and will lead the top and bottom halves of the men’s singles main draw at the 2026 US Open, which was released here on Thursday.
In Sinner's absence, Zverev is the top seed and will anchor the top half of the season's last Grand Slam tournament, while the bottom half will be led by No. 2 seed and defending champion Carlos Alcaraz, who is joined by past champions Novak Djokovic, Daniil Medvedev, Stan Wawrinka and Marin Cilic.
Alcaraz is back after a five-month layoff due to a wrist injury sustained in the early part of the European red clay swing, and he is hankering to reclaim his title and lift the US Open trophy for the third time in five years. However, with his lack of match play, the reigning Roland Garros champion and Wimbledon finalist Zverev has his sights set on becoming the King of Queens after he was denied the title by Dominic Thiem in the 2020 final.
