What Brits are in action at Flushing Meadows?
A host of Brits are set to compete in this year's main draw, including 2021 winner Emma Raducanu and current British No 1s Katie Boulter and Jack Draper.
Draper will be flying the flag in the men's singles, alongside Dan Evans, with Cameron Norrie having withdrawn from the tournament due to injury.
It's also the first post-Andy Murray slam for the British male contingent, with the three-time Grand Slam champion having retired from the sport after the Paris 2024 Olympics, following a near two decades at the top of the game.
Raducanu will once again be a big draw at Flushing Meadows, the 2021 champion having missed last year's tournament due after having surgery on her two broken wrists and left ankle.
The 21-year-old is now back to somewhere near her best form, having climbed back into the world's top 100 off the back of a fourth-round run at Wimbledon.
Dan Evans and Harriet Dart are also entered into the men's and women's main singles draw, while a heap of other British hopes battled it out to try and come through qualifying.
Meanwhile, British doubles star Joe Salisbury will have his sights on making it four in a row at the US Open as he and America's Rajeev Ram once again look to retain their men's doubles crown.
Who are the other big names in action?
The final Grand Slam of the year is well-timed as the battle between Novak Djokovic and Carlos Alcaraz in the men's game intensifies.
Djokovic lost out to the Spaniard handily in the Wimbledon final last month, but arrives at Flushing Meadows fresh from finally securing the Olympic gold medal that had so eluded him to this point.
Djokovic gained revenge on Alcaraz in Paris, putting in a stunning performance to triumph in straight sets and clinch the 'golden slam' - just the fifth player to do so, following Steffi Graf, Andre Agassi, Rafael Nadal and Serena Williams.
The 37-year-old Serb now chases yet more history with a 25th Grand Slam success at the US Open, which would see him break his current tie on 24 with Australia's Margaret Court.
Or will it again be the turn of the young challengers to his throne, with world No 1 Jannik Sinner looking to add to his Australian Open crown from earlier in the year and Alcaraz eyeing a fifth slam at just 21 years old.
In the women's game, world No 1 Iga Swiatek will be looking to go one better than Alcaraz and secure a sixth slam success, and second in New York.
She heads the women's field, though defending champion Coco Gauff, Aryna Sabalenka and Elena Rybakina will all be in the shake up too, while could Wimbledon champion Barbora Krejcikova spring another surprise?
