Ben Shelton’s appearance in the U.S. Open men’s final has not yet driven ticket prices higher, with the cheapest available seat priced at $388, according to TicketData.com. The figure is down 27% over three days and has fluctuated between $361 and $400 since Shelton defeated Frances Tiafoe in their primetime semifinal. Shelton, the No. 8 seed, will face No. 1 seed Alexander Zverev in Sunday’s final at the stadium named after Arthur Ashe. Shelton is the first Black American male singles player to reach the U.S. Open championship match since Ashe in 1972 and the first Black U.S. man to reach a Grand Slam final since MaliVai Washington’s 1996 Wimbledon appearance. A victory would make Shelton the first American man to win a Grand Slam singles title since Andy Roddick’s U.S. Open triumph 23 years ago. Shelton, 23, is playing in his first Grand Slam final and has lost all five of his previous matches against Zverev, 29, who won his first Grand Slam title at the French Open earlier this year. The women’s final ticket price settled at $314, down 20% over three days, while Elena Rybakina defeated two-time defending champion Aryna Sabalenka 6-4, 5-7, 6-2 to win her first U.S. Open crown.
