US Open 2024: Schedule, draws, playing order

The 2024 US Open begins on Monday with the first matches of the main draw singles tournaments.

Defending champions Novak Djokovic and Coco Gauff are aiming to become the first doubles winners since Serena Williams a decade ago.

Djokovic, who just won his first Olympic gold medal, is aiming for his 25th Grand Slam singles title to break the tie with Margaret Court, who holds the most titles in history.

Gauff, who last year became the youngest American woman to win a major singles title since Williams’ first of 23 titles in 1999, is looking to continue her winning streak: every year in the modern era, an American man or woman has made it to at least one Grand Slam singles final.

This has not happened at the Australian Open, French Open and Wimbledon this year.
