O Italian Jannik Sinner and Spanish Carlos Alcaraz They face each other in the US Open final this Sunday (09/07), at 15:30 (Brasilia). United States President Donald Trump was present in the male final of the competition on American soil.
More than 20,000 people are present in the court Arthur Ashe and the Final was postponed for half an hour. The justification of the organization was that because of the changes in security measures, it would be given more time for everyone to settle in their places.
As a result of the security measures in place, and to ensure that fans have additional time to get to their seats, we have pushed the start time of today’s match to 2:30 pm ET.

According to ESPN, the politician’s presence was the cause of this delay. With a president in the US Open final, something that has not happened 20 years ago, the organization changed the entire security scheme of the organization for the match, making the public entrance longer.
The magazine for the match was completely different from what happened usual throughout the tournament. With the presence of Trump, the public would have to pass through an X-ray magazine made by the organization.
Trump has been present at various sporting events since resumed the presidential presidency in January. He was at the Super Bowl in New Orleans at Nascar’s traditional Daytona Race; In UFC struggles in Miami and Newark, in New Jersey, at the NCAA University Long Championship, Philadelphia, and at the FIFA Club World Cup final.
