US Open 2024 draw Live Streaming: When and where to watch the draws

Novak Djokovic will be looking to follow up on his maiden Olympic gold with a fifth US Open title that could take him to a record 25 Grand Slam wins. Jannik Sinner, who will be the top seed and among the favourites for the title, will, on the other hand, arrive with the shadow of two positive doping tests hovering over him. Five-time Major winner and world number one Iga Swiatek will meanwhile looking to win the US Open for the second time with defending champion Coco Gauff going through a dip in form.
Djokovic could go past Margaret Court’s record for most Grand Slam titles of all time. Djokovic currently has 24 titles to his name which is tied with Court for most Major titles ever, both before the Open era and since. It could also make him the oldest Open era champion at the tournament along with Jimmy Connors, Pete Sampras and Roger Federer.
Djokovic would be desperate to win at Arthur Ashe Stadium, having been denied a Grand Slam title this year thus far. Sinner beat him in the semi-finals of the Australian Open and went on to win the title itself. Carlos Alcaraz then won the French Open, where Djokovic was forced to pull out before the quarterfinals after which the Spaniard thrashed the Serb in the Wimbledon final.
Sinner arrives at the final Slam of the season having captured the Cincinnati Masters title. However, that triumph was quickly overshadowed when it emerged he had been cleared of any wrongdoing after twice testing positive for a banned substance earlier in the season. Sinner tested positive for clostebol, an anabolic agent prohibited at all times by the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA). But he escaped a lengthy ban after officials accepted his explanation that the substance had entered his system as a result of contamination from a support team member.
Alcaraz may have beaten Djokovic in the Wimbledon final but he suffered a bruising defeat in the Olympic gold medal match against the 37-year-old. He broke down in tears on court before admitting he felt he had “let Spain down”. His build-up to New York wasn’t helped by a second round exit in Cincinnati to Gael Monfils in a match which saw the usually composed Alcaraz smash his racquet on court.
All eyes will be on whether Gauff can get her act together in women’s singles. A stormy exit from the Olympics in the third round was followed by early losses in Toronto and Cincinnati. No woman has successfully defended her US Open title since Serena Williams in 2014. Five-time major winner and world number one Iga Swiatek, the 2022 champion in New York, made the Cincinnati semi-finals where she was defeated by Aryna Sabalenka. Sabalenka, the Australian Open champion, was runner-up to Gauff at the US Open last year, losing from a set up in the final.
