The 2026 US Open begins Sunday with a surprising lack of star power defining the draw. On the men's side, Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner have both withdrawn due to injuries, ensuring no Alcaraz-Sinner Slam clash this year. Alcaraz returns from a wrist injury but faces a challenging first-round five-setter scenario.

Alexander Zverev and Novak Djokovic enter as co-favorites after mixed summer performances. On the women's side, Aryna Sabalenka leads but has struggled recently, allowing Kajsa Rybakina, Jessica Pegula and Coco Gauff to challenge for No. 1. The women's race features unusual volatility with 10 different WTA 1000 finalists and seven champions.

ESPN's Bill Connelly identifies 21 players most likely to define the Queens fortnight, with DraftKings odds ranging from Alcaraz at +250 to various dark horses.

在男子方面,亚历山大·兹verev和诺瓦克·德约科维奇因卡洛斯·阿尔卡拉斯和扬尼克·辛纳的受伤退出而成为共同热门。阿尔卡拉斯从腕部伤势中恢复,但以劣势进入赛事。在女子方面,阿丽娜·萨巴伦卡领先,但面临卡耶萨·鲁巴基纳、杰西卡·佩古拉和可可·高夫的竞争,她们都有机会在赛前争夺世界第一排名。
