Carlos Alcaraz and Alexander Zverev stand out as the leading candidates to reach the men's singles final at the 2026 US Open, with the draw placing them in opposite halves following Jannik Sinner's withdrawal due to a right knee injury. Alcaraz, the defending champion returning from a four-month wrist layoff with no matches since April, enters as the betting favorite despite rust concerns, while top-seeded Zverev carries momentum from his French Open title. Novak Djokovic, at 39 and seeking a record 25th major, benefits from an early draw but faces questions about sustained form. Recent results from players like Arthur Fils, fresh off a Cincinnati Masters 1000 win, and Americans Ben Shelton and Taylor Fritz add depth to potential semifinal paths, though Alcaraz's and Zverev's experience and recent Slam pedigree shape the strongest implied probabilities among traders.
