There will be a first time winner of the US Open men’s title on Sunday when Jannik Sinner takes on Taylor Fritz in the final.
Sinner took down ailing Briton Jack Draper 7-5, 7-6(3), 6-2 to reach his second major final after winning the Australian Open earlier this year.
And in the second semi-final Fritz beat Frances Tiafoe 4-6, 7-5, 3-6, 6-4, 6-1 to become the first American male to reach the final in New York since Andy Roddick in 2006.
The women’s final takes place on Sunday, September 8 at 7pm in the UK, 2pm EST in the US.
