Jannik Sinner (Source: X)
In a historic moment for tennis, Jannik Sinner has etched his name into the annals of the US Open by becoming the first Italian to win the men’s singles title. On Sunday, Sinner clinched his first Grand Slam victory with a commanding performance against Taylor Fritz, securing a straight-sets win: 6-3, 6-4, 7-5.
Sinner's triumph at Flushing Meadows marks a significant milestone in the Open era, which began in 1968. Over these decades, 31 different players have lifted the US Open trophy. Among them, Swiss legend Roger Federer, American icons Pete Sampras and Jimmy Connors, and Serbian star Novak Djokovic have dominated the tournament, each securing multiple titles.
Federer, Sampras, and Connors share the record for the most US Open victories, each winning five titles. Connors is the only player to have won the US Open on grass, clay, and hard courts, showcasing his versatility. Federer remains the last player to win back-to-back titles at the event, doing so in 2007 and 2008.
The complete list highlights a series of remarkable champions, each contributing to the rich history of the tournament. As Sinner joins this illustrious list, he not only celebrates a personal victory but also paves the way for future Italian tennis stars to follow in his footsteps.
Here is the complete list of US Open men’s singles champions:
