US Open 2023: Schedule, Timings, TV Telecast, Live Streaming To Watch Novak Djokovic and Carlos Alcaraz In Action

Here are the details of US Open 2023 schedule, timings, live streaming and TV telecast in IST.

New Delhi: Novak Djokovic is back in the United States, back in New York — and back at the U.S. Open for the first time in two years. Unable to compete at Flushing Meadows in 2022 because he was not allowed to fly to the country as a foreign citizen who is not vaccinated against COVID-19, the 23-time Grand Slam champion will be back in Arthur Ashe Stadium on Monday as play begins in the season’s final major tournament. He has spent more weeks ranked at No. 1 than any man or woman. But that doesn’t mean he would mind overtaking current ATP leader Carlos Alcaraz simply by defeating U.S. Open rookie Alexandre Muller on Monday. Competitors know that Djokovic can find motivation anywhere. They also know — based on his titles at the Australian Open in January and French Open in June, and his run to the Wimbledon final in July, and his victory over Alcaraz in the Cincinnati Masters final last weekend — that he’s still a, if not the, favourite in every tournament he enters. Alcaraz on the other hand, will be looking to make his presence felt this time around by winning the US Open Cup after losing out to Djokovic twice in back to back finals. The Spaniard will face Dominik Koepfer in the first round.
