Where & how to watch Jannik Sinner vs Alexei Popyrin; US Open 2025 second-round match?

Jannik Sinner eyes a smooth defence of his crown as he faces Alexei Popyrin in the second round of the US Open 2025.

World No. 1 Jannik Sinner and Australia’s Alexei Popyrin are set to face off in a US Open 2025 men’s singles second-round encounter on Thursday, August 28, at Arthur Ashe Stadium at the USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center in New York.

The matchup brings together the defending champion against one of the ATP Tour’s most dangerous floaters, setting the stage for a compelling second-round clash at Flushing Meadows.

Sinner’s all-court game and calm under pressure stand in contrast to Popyrin’s big-serve, first-strike tennis, making this a stylistic battle that promises fireworks.

Sinner heads into New York full of energy after a strong showing on the hard courts of the North American Swing. With his precise groundstrokes, consistency in rallies, and ability to dictate from both wings, the Italian remains a leading favourite to go deep again in New York.

Meanwhile, Popyrin arrives with nothing to lose and plenty to gain. Known for his explosive serve and attacking forehand, the Australian can trouble top opponents even on fast hard courts.

If he finds his rhythm early and keeps the points short, he could push Sinner into uncomfortable territory and hunt for a major upset under the bright lights of Arthur Ashe.
