The US Open in 2026 will bring together the top names in the men's game for a Grand Slam tournament that will round off the major events in 2026. 

In 2025, Carlos Alcaraz was able to defeat Jannik Sinner in another thrilling final, but is the Spaniard the man to back ahead of the tournament?

You can see the latest men's US Open winner betting odds in the table below.

Despite securing the trophy in 2025, Carlos Alcaraz is not the favourite to defend his crown. He is just behind Jannik Sinner, with the Italian finishing in second in 2025 after a thrilling 3-1 defeat to Alcaraz. 

Both players were in stunning form across the tournament, and the Alcaraz vs Sinner contest was the final most were hoping for. The pair have been far better than any other player in recent years, and it showed on the court once again as they eliminated all before them. 

Novak Djokovic is next in the betting, but he seems a long way off in both the odds and in quality on the court right now. Djokovic of five years ago would have relished the chance to take on both Alcaraz and Sinner, but the Serb is currently struggling to keep up with the pair on the court. 

Outside of the top three, things seem bleak. No player has been able to get anywhere near the trio on the court, and this gap only seems to be getting larger. 

Not since Novak Djokovic's US Open triumph in 2023 has a player outside of Sinner or Alcaraz won a Slam. The dominance of the duo has seen them easily beat all before them in a stunning run of form. 

Ultimately, the men's side of the game has become one where the entire field is battling to keep up with Sinner and Alcaraz, and they are currently failing. 

Who will win the 2026 US Open? Can Alcaraz defend his crown, or will there be a different name on the trophy in 2026?
