This might be the deal of the century for tennis fans.
Novak Djokovic and Carlos Alcaraz are facing off in a doubles exhibition match during the U.S. Open’s Fan Week on Wednesday, Aug. 21, with the get-in ticket price costing less than $40.
The “Stars of the Open” event will feature Djokovic paired up with John McEnroe vs. Alcaraz and Andre Agassi — making a total of 43 singles majors all on the same court.
A standard ticket to the showdown is $33, while seats in the 100 section cost upward of $55 at Ticketmaster.
According to the event’s promotion, part of the proceeds will go to the USTA Foundation.
