NEW YORK — President Donald Trump is set to attend the US Open men’s singles final on Sunday, marking his first visit to the Grand Slam tennis event since 2015.
The White House confirmed that the president, who was re-elected for a second term in 2024, is expected to be present at the New York City tournament. His last appearance at Flushing Meadows was a decade ago, when he was joined by his wife, Melania.
In 2015, Trump was greeted by American tennis legend John McEnroe and watched the matches from a hospitality suite. The 79-year-old was born in the Queens borough of New York, where the tournament is held.
This year’s men’s final will not feature any American players. The finalists will be determined in Friday’s matches, with Serbia’s Novak Djokovic facing Spain’s Carlos Alcaraz, followed by Italy’s Jannik Sinner against Canada’s Felix Auger-Aliassime.
