The average get-in price for the U.S. Open has increased by 19% to $311, compared to $262 at the same point in 2025, despite uncertainty surrounding the health of top stars Jannik Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz. The tournament is set to begin on August 30, with Sinner and Alcaraz having combined to win 9 of the last 10 major titles.

Jannik Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz have been dealing with injuries, with Alcaraz withdrawing from the Cincinnati Open due to a wrist injury and Sinner withdrawing due to a knee issue. Despite this, Sinner currently sits as a 49% favorite to win the title, followed by Alcaraz at 13% and Alexander Zverev at 12%.

## What's driving the prices The increase in ticket prices has been steady, with prices climbing even after Alcaraz and Sinner withdrew from the Cincinnati Open. According to TicketData's Keith Pagello, the uncertainty surrounding the two players has not affected the market, with prices continuing to rise.

## Why it matters The U.S. Open is one of the most prestigious tennis tournaments in the world, and the participation of top stars like Sinner and Alcaraz is crucial to its success. The ideal situation for the tournament and its fans would be for both players to be in the draw, alongside other top players like Alexander Zverev and Novak Djokovic. The increase in ticket prices suggests that fans are still eager to attend the tournament, despite the uncertainty surrounding the top stars.

The tournament's organizers and fans will be keeping a close eye on the health of Sinner and Alcaraz in the lead-up to the event, which is set to begin on August 30. With the average get-in price already at $311, it will be interesting to see how prices move in the coming days, especially if there are any further updates on the health of the top stars.
