US Open men’s singles final: What time? What channel? How do I stream it?

Dominic Thiem and Alexander Zverev will meet in Sunday’s US Open men’s singles final at Flushing Meadows. 

Thiem, 27, could become the first Austrian to win an Open after he booked his place in the final after beating Daniil Medvedev 6-2 7-6 (7) 7-6 (5).

The world No 3 said ahead of the final: "When we both step on the court on Sunday, it doesn't matter anymore.

“I mean, the moment we start the finals, we both want to win with everything we have. That's all I focus on.”

Zverev, 23, who is the world No 7, will be playing in his first Grand Slam final after making a comeback against Spain’s Pablo Carreño Busta winning 3-6 2-6 6-3 6-4 6-4 in the semis.

If he wins the title, he will become the first German star to win the US Open since Boris Becker in 1989.

He said: "Sunday is going to be extremely difficult.

“But I'm looking forward to it. I'm in the final of a Grand Slam. The two best players in the world are going to be playing on court.”

It will be the first time since 2014 where the men’s final will not feature top stars Novak Djokovic, Rafael Nadal or Roger Federer.

It comes after Federer is rehabbing with a knee injury and Nadal opted not to travel to New York due to Covid-19.

Djokovic’s chance to seal the title came to an end after he got disqualified in the round of 16 after accidentally hitting a line judge with a ball. 

Here is everything you need to know ahead of this evening’s showdown.
