Carlos Alcaraz is back at the US Open after a recent injury. He is the defending champion, and that makes his comeback the main headline. Aryna Sabalenka opens her campaign as champion as well. Jessica Pegula said she was a bit surprised Alcaraz came back.
The ATP says Alcaraz could be the first to do something historic but no details were given. The tournament has plenty of star guests and tickets are tough to find. People say the event depends heavily on Alcaraz this year.
