Sports Brief looks at the players who took home the trophies at the 2023 US Open.
Novak Djokovic (Men's Singles)
Djokovic made history on Sunday, tying Margaret Court's all-time record of 24 Grand Slam titles after his victory over Daniil Medvedev in the final.
He needed three hours and 16 minutes to produce the 6-3, 7-6 (5), 6-3 victory over the Russian as he captured his fourth US Open title, per The Guardian.
It was sweet revenge for Djokovic, who lost to Medvedev in straight sets in the 2021 US Open final.
Coco Gauff (Women's Singles)
Gauff also made history at Flushing Meadows this year, becoming the third American teenager to win the US Open Women's Singles tournament.
She battled back from a set down to beat Aryna Sabalenka, 2-6, 6-3, 6-2, in the final. It was the 19-year-old's first Grand Slam title.
Rajeev Ram/ Joe Salisbury (Men's Doubles)
Britain's Joe Salisbury and American Rajeev Ram made history on Friday, becoming the first pairing in over a century to win three straight US Open men's doubles titles.
The third-seeded pair accomplished the feat by beating Australia's Matthew Ebden and Rohan Bopanna of India in the final in three sets 2-6, 6-3, 6-4.
The last men's doubles team to win three in a row at the US Open was the all-American duo of Maurice McLoughlin and Tom Bundy. They captured the titles in 1912, 1913, and 1914.
