Carlos Alcaraz will begin his quest for a fifth major trophy Tuesday at the US Open, where the Spaniard kickstarts the evening session on Arthur Ashe Stadium, not before 7 p.m., against Australian Li Tu.
Australian Open champion Jannik Sinner is aiming to sweep this year’s hard-court Slams. The Italian, No. 1 in the PIF ATP Rankings, meets American Mackenzie McDonald during the Ashe day session, second match from 11 a.m. following the WTA match between Iga Swiatek and Kamilla Rakhimova. Sinner leads McDonald 3-0 in their Lexus ATP Head2Head series.
Top seed Sinner and 2022 champion Alcaraz are on a semi-final collision course. Their 2022 quarter-final at Flushing Meadows featured five sets of thrilling exchanges that is largely considered one of the greatest matches in recent memory.
Also on Tuesday’s card, 2020 Nitto ATP Finals titlist and fifth seed Daniil Medvedev starts against Serbian Dusan Lajovic on Louis Armstrong Stadium, where later home favourite Tommy Paul faces Italian Lorenzo Sonego.
