Alexander Zverev holds the edge in the 2026 US Open men’s final as the top seed and recent French Open champion, bringing superior Grand Slam experience and straight-sets semifinal form after defeating Karen Khachanov. Ben Shelton, the No. 8 seed, reached his first major final by upsetting Carlos Alcaraz in the quarterfinals and outlasting Frances Tiafoe in an all-American semifinal, showcasing powerful serving and baseline play that has energized the home crowd. Casper Ruud’s negligible odds reflect his early exit from contention. The matchup pits Zverev’s consistency and net approaches against Shelton’s athleticism and home advantage on hard courts, with traders pricing the contest as competitive based on both players’ recent hard-court momentum and head-to-head history.
