Defending champion Novak Djokovic shocked at the US Open, one night after Carlos Alcaraz lost
Defending champion Novak Djokovic was ousted from the U.S. Open, losing in the third round to Alexei Popyrin. This marks Djokovic's first year without a Grand Slam title since 2017. Additionally, 2024 will be the first time since 2002 that none of the Big Three—Djokovic, Nadal, Federer—won a Slam trophy.
