Alexander Zverev claims his second major title with a dramatic US Open win over Ben Shelton, ending a 21-year American men’s Grand Slam drought. After breaking his major duck at the French Open, Zverev seized control in New York, capitalizing on Shelton’s nerves in a thrilling four-set final. Despite Shelton’s historic quest to become the first American man and first Black man to win since 2003 and 1968, Zverev’s poise under pressure sealed the deal — even if he momentarily forgot he’d won, dropping back to return serve before erupting in celebration. The victory cements Zverev as a dominant force, while Shelton’s debut final loss signals a bright future for the rising star.
