Carlos Alcaraz is back at the US Open after an injury setback. He is the defending champion, and that makes his comeback the main headline. Aryna Sabalenka begins her own title defense as well. Jessica Pegula said she was a bit surprised Alcaraz came back.
The ATP says Alcaraz has a chance at a record but no details were given. The tournament features many celebrities and tickets are hard to get. People say the event relies on his star power this year.
