Delray's Coco Gauff Set to Defend Title on Tennis' Biggest Stage

The final leg of the tennis grand slam gets underway today with the 56th edition of the U.S. Open in Flushing Meadows, New York.

Women's third-seeded Coco Gauff of Delray Beach won her first-ever grand slam title at last year's tournament.

Gauff will play Varvara Gracheva at 2:00 p.m. Monday in the Arthur Ashe Stadium, starting the tournament off in what is sure to be dramatic, exciting fashion.

Men's second-seeded Novak Djokovic looks to defend his U.S. Open title just weeks after winning the gold medal at the Paris Olympics.

Djokovic is sandwiched between No. 1 Jannik Sinner and No. 3 Carlos Alcaraz. Iga Świątek is the top seeded woman ahead of Aryna Sabalenka and Gauff.

Both Gauff and Djokovic are in action today.
