Arthur Ashe Court was once again the scene of history this weekend. Perhaps the completion of a legend on Sunday, with Novak Djokovic's 24th Grand Slam title, a new absolute record for men. Even if the Serb seems to still have the resources to win other major victories beyond his 36 years, this coronation The US Open will perhaps remain as the one that places him alone in the world, in front of a Rafael Nadal who will return in 2024 with the ambition of competing with him again. By dominating Daniil Medvedev in the final (6-3, 7-6, 6-3), “Nole” concluded a brilliant and almost trouble-free fortnight for him, if we except his little scare in five sets against his compatriot Laslo Djere in the third round.

The day before, it was the first page of a legend that we hope will last as long as Flushing Meadows did, with the first Grand Slam title for the prodigy Coco Gauff. The 19-year-old American will have a hard time stopping the comparisons with Serena Williams, winning like her elder her first Grand Slam at home before her 20th birthday. To achieve this, she had to overthrow the new world number one Aryna Sabalenka in the final (2-6, 6-3, 6-2). Helped by a supportive public, she won the biggest tournament of her young career and will have to continue to deal with the pressure of her status: that of a player so talented that many more Grand Slam successes are expected of her.

For the French, bring on 2024!

As in all the Grand Slam tournaments this season, with the exception of Caroline Garcia at Wimbledon, no French woman or man reached the last 16 of the US Open. In the women's event, the failure was stinging since only Clara Burel went as far as the third round, where she was logically swept aside by Aryna Sabalenka. Caroline Garcia, the only hope of a long run in the American tournament, was beaten in the first round by the Chinese Yafan Wang, and confirms that she is no longer part of the elite of women's tennis, while waiting, hopefully, for a rebound in 2024.

In the men's competition, however, the absence of a representative in the second week hides a rather encouraging record, with three French players in the third round. Adrian Mannarino, Arthur Rinderknech and Benjamin Bonzi, all authors of their best Major run this season, lost respectively to Frances Tiafoe, Andrey Rublev and Dominic Stricker. These defeats were logical but encouraging, such as that of Arthur Fils against the excellent Matteo Arnaldi, after having eliminated the world number 24 Tallon Griekspoor in the first round. The Frenchman, the youngest player in the men's top 50, continues to gain experience and improve his game, before perhaps moving up a gear next year. Finally, we will remember the beautiful and promising story of Titouan Droguet, aged 22 and winner in the first round of Lorenzo Musetti, 18th in the world, after qualifying for a Grand Slam for the first time in his career.

Fallen No. 1s and Great Firsts

Carlos Alcaraz, eliminated in the semi-finals by Daniil Medvedev, had a very good tournament and continues to gain experience. But now, only one tournament won is a successful tournament for the Spaniard, who gives back his throne as world number one to Novak Djokovic. Less positive to draw for Iga Swiatek, eliminated in the round of 16 by Jelena Ostapenko and who loses her place as leader of the WTA rankings to the benefit of the finalist Aryna Sabalenka.

On the good news side, the Italian Matteo Arnaldi and the Australian Rinky Hijikata, both 22 years old, were the surprise invitees to the round of 16. They reached this stage for the first time in their Grand Slam careers, and have had two very promising runs for the 2024 season. Young Ben Shelton, 20, reached the first Major semi-final of his career on home soil, but was stopped there by the eventual Serbian winner. In the men's doubles, the Ram-Salisbury pair won the title for the third year in a row, while Gabriela Dabrowski and Erin Routliffe won their first Grand Slam trophy together, in the women's doubles.
