**Jannik Sinner’s withdrawal with a right knee injury has opened the men’s draw significantly ahead of the August 30 start at Flushing Meadows.** Defending champion Carlos Alcaraz returns after more than four months sidelined by a right wrist injury, entering without recent match play yet positioned as the consensus favorite due to his elite talent and hard-court record. Alexander Zverev, the new top seed and 2026 French Open champion, brings strong momentum and prior US Open final experience. Novak Djokovic remains a dangerous veteran with five prior titles, while American contenders Ben Shelton and Taylor Fritz benefit from home support, recent hard-court results, and favorable seeding. Younger risers like Rafael Jódar and Arthur Fils add depth, though early-round best-of-five tests will test fitness and consistency for all players navigating an unusually unpredictable field. The draw release on August 26 will further clarify quarterfinal paths.
