Ticket resale is getting out of hand

There are not even 5,000 fans inside the track.

There's still time to go. We see Alcaraz and Sinner still warming up calmly.

8:30 PM

The champion's trophy is in front of the suite where Trump will watch the game.

He should have been in the presidential box, but the President of the United States seems to have changed the protocol.

20:29

As I said, it seems that the game is going to be delayed even more.

The entrance is still crowded. It doesn't look like it's going to clear up anytime soon... We'll see what decision the organizers make.

20:27

Ferrero is clear: It's going to be a very physical match.

Trump shielded by the USTA

According to Reuters, the US Open organizers sent an email to television networks requesting that they censor any potential protests or other reactions to President Donald Trump's presence at the men's final.

20:22

There have also been demonstrations against Trump.

In the presence of the US president, a march against Trump began just over half an hour ago from the subway station closest to Flushing Meadows, about an eight-minute walk from the final stadium.

An unpredictable Alcaraz against an impeccable Sinner

The Italian knows how to withstand pressure, while the Murcian is an expert at improvising genius in extreme situations.

20:21

Ivan Lendl, who will present the trophy to the winner

World number 1, she won the Australian Open in 1989 and 1990, Roland Garros in 1984, 1986 and 1987 and the US Open in 1985, 1986 and 1987. She failed to win Wimbledon, although she played in the finals in 1986 and 1987.

20:20

Carlitos' improved second serve could wreak havoc on Sinner

Against opponents like Lehecka, she hasn't given up a single break point. Her second serve has improved dramatically. In this tournament, she's won 82 of her 84 service games, only Darderi and Djokovic (with her only break point) have broken her, and she's given up just nine break points.

20:19

This is how the entrances to Arthur Ashe Stadium looked at 8:00 p.m.

Indoors

In addition to the delayed start of the final, this final match of the US Open will be played indoors due to the persistent rain that has been falling in New York throughout the day. This could benefit Sinner slightly more due to his ball speed, which won't be affected by the wind. However, Alcaraz knows it will be a very tough match and is physically very well prepared.

20:04

This is how Sinner arrives

Sinner, despite being considered a machine of performance, reliability and precision, has shown some more cracks on his way to the final. He defeated Kopriva (6-1, 6-1 and 6-2), Popyrin (6-3, 6-2 and 6-2), Shapovalov (5-7, 6-4, 6-3 and 6-3), Bublik (6-1, 6-1 and 6-1), Musetti (6-1, 6-4 and 6-2) and Auger-Aliassime (6-1, 3-6, 6-3 and 6-4).

How Alcaraz arrives

Although a final between Alcaraz and Sinner is always a match that both sides look forward to, and everything that has happened in the days leading up to it is of no use, it's worth remembering how they get into this duel.

Carlos Alcaraz has not lost a set and has only had his serve broken twice. He has convincingly defeated Opelka (6-4, 7-5, 6-4), Bellucci (6-1, 6-0, 6-3), Darderi (6-2, 6-4, 6-0), Rinderknech (7-6, 83, 6-3, 6-4), Lehecka (6-4, 6-2, 6-4), and Novak Djokovic (6-4, 7-6 (4), 6-2).

19:40

Delay of the final

The organizers have delayed the start of the US Open final, which was scheduled for 2:00 PM in New York (8:00 PM in Spain), due to security concerns related to Donald Trump's attendance. The match is scheduled to begin 30 minutes later, at 8:30 PM in Spain.

Double prize

In addition to claiming another prestigious title, Alcaraz will repeat his legacy in 2022, as he would also sit on the ATP throne if he lifts the trophy tonight in New York. On that occasion, he defeated Casper Ruud and, in the process, became the youngest world number 1 in history, at just 19 years old.

For Sinner, his second consecutive title at Flushing Meadows would mean keeping the Spaniard at bay in second place and confirming his dominance in tennis for another week, since he captured the world title in June 2024. Although the fight for the number 1 will continue until the end of the season, since the Italian still defends many points, while the Spaniard does not risk as much and could threaten the throne.

19:27

Break away or tie

Carlos Alcaraz is looking for what would be his sixth Grand Slam title, his second at the US Open, after opening his showcase precisely here, in 2022, and then adding Roland Garros in 2024 and 2025, and Wimbledon in 2023 and 2024. If Jannik Sinner wins, he would win his fifth major, which would put him tied with Alcaraz, who would add two Australian Opens (2024 and 2025), one Wimbledon (2025) and one US Open (2024).

Big 2

For the third consecutive Grand Slam, the Spaniard and the Italian are in the title fight, a battle that will determine each other's consistency on the hard surface. Alcaraz triumphed at Roland Garros; Sinner triumphed at Wimbledon. New York will select its champion starting at 8:00 p.m. in Spain.
