Shelton, 23, is the first Black American to reach the US Open men’s final since Arthur Ashe in 1972. And if he emerges victorious today, he’d be the first American man to win a Grand Slam title in 23 years.
It’s Zverev’s second time in the US Open finals. He won his maiden Grand Slam earlier this year at the French Open.
