2026 US Open tennis tournament

Overview

The 2026 US Open has continued to produce significant upsets and notable performances. In the men’s draw, Australian wildcard Dane Sweeny, ranked 123rd, secured a career-defining victory by defeating 14th seed Lorenzo Musetti 3-6, 6-1, 6-2, 6-2. Musetti, who previously described his season as an ‘odyssey’, attributed his struggle to physical issues, heat-related discomfort, and temperature shocks caused by the venue’s air conditioning.

Sweeny advances to the third round to face Luciano Darderi, who also secured a third-round berth after defeating Dalibor Svrcina in a volatile match that included Darderi smashing his racket in frustration. Carlos Alcaraz has also advanced to the round of 16 after defeating Wu Yibing, expressing confidence in his physical recovery and noting he feels increasingly comfortable as the competition progresses. On the men’s side, Flavio Cobolli remains the sole Italian representative moving forward after a comeback victory to reach the third round.

In the women’s draw, Sorana Cîrstea advanced to the round of 16 after defeating Jasmine Paolini in straight sets (6-3, 6-3). Following her elimination, Paolini cited physical difficulties and a lack of clarity resulting from a previous foot injury. Cîrstea is scheduled to face the third seed, Jessica Pegula, in her next match. The tournament has also seen top-10 players Karolina Muchova and Elina Svitolina exit in the third round following losses to Emma Navarro and Anna Kalinskaya, respectively.
