Ben Shelton and Alexander Zverev meet in the US Open 2026 final on Sunday, September 13, with two very different stories behind them. Shelton is playing his first Grand Slam final on home soil, while Zverev returns to the championship match with the experience of having already won a major this season.
For Shelton, the biggest weapon has been his serve. The American has repeatedly used his pace and left-handed forehand to keep opponents under pressure, and that combination helped him produce the biggest win of his run against defending champion Carlos Alcaraz in the quarterfinals. He followed that with a four-set 4-6, 6-3, 6-3, 7-5 victory over Frances Tiafoe to reach his first Grand Slam final.
Zverev is coming on the back of a 6-3, 7-6(7), 7-6(6) win over Karen Khachanov and has taken a more measured route to the final. The German has relied on his powerful first serve, exceptional two-handed backhand and ability to stay in long baseline exchanges. After navigating the early rounds, he raised his level in the latter stages and reached another major final.
Alexander Zverev Holds The Head-To-Head Advantage
Zverev leads Shelton 5-0 in their previous meetings, including their most recent encounter at the 2025 ATP Finals, when he won 6-3, 7-6(6).
