Flushing Meadows plays host to the final Grand Slam of the year as the world’s best players prepare to serve up a fortnight of thrilling tennis.
If you cast your mind back to 12 months ago, you’ll remember it was at the US Open where Emma Raducanu burst onto the scene as the Brit teen battled through the qualifiers all the way to a famous victory in the final.
