Men’s US Open Winner Leading Contenders

Jannik Sinner

Italian superstar Jannik Sinner will be a red-hot favorite to win the US Open this year. The world number one will be full of confidence after winning Wimbledon earlier in the summer, while he has reached the last two finals in New York: winning in 2024, and losing in last year’s final. Potential questions surrounding his fitness are a concern, having bypassed the Cincinnati Open due to injury.

Carlos Alcaraz

Seven-time Grand Slam champion Carlos Alcaraz will likely be back in New York to defend his US Open title. The Spanish star has been in dominant form in majors, reaching four finals since the start of 2025. However, his fitness would be a major point of concern, as he missed the French Open and Wimbledon due to injury, and he appears to have suffered a setback after pulling out of the Cincinnati Open.

Alexander Zverev

Alexander Zverev finally delivered on his promise earlier this year after winning a Grand Slam title for the first time at the French Open. The German has looked like a more rounded player throughout this season, reaching the Wimbledon final and semi-finals at the Australian Open. His 79% win rate in 2026 is his best since 2021, and it’s hard to ignore his impressive 15-6 record on hard courts.

Novak Djokovic

Novak Djokovic is hard to dismiss as a 24-time major champion. The legendary Serbian is a four-time winner of the US Open, but his powers have looked to be fading throughout 2026, despite reaching a first Grand Slam final since 2024. In fact, his 74% win rate this calendar year is his lowest since 2006.

Men’s US Open Winner Pick

The unpredictability at the top of the betting means that the stage could be set for a newcomer to make their mark. Jakub Mensik has been one of the fastest rising stars on the ATP Tour this season, and he has already achieved career-best showings at the Australian Open and French Open.

Mensik has a reliable 64% win rate on hard courts, and previously upset the odds to beat Novak Djokovic in the ATP 1000 event in Miami on a hard surface.
