Boos, Delays, and Drama: Trump’s US Open Appearance Sparks Uproar

                                     US president Donald Trump faced a hostile welcome during US Open final.

The 2025 US Open men’s final between Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner was supposed to be all about tennis — but President Donald Trump’s arrival turned it into a spectacle before the first serve was even struck.

His presence triggered heightened security measures that delayed the match by over 30 minutes, leaving long lines of frustrated fans outside. Some attendees reported waiting more than an hour to get in, missing the start of the final entirely.

Despite a reported request from the United States Tennis Association for broadcasters to avoid showing crowd reactions, footage quickly spread online capturing the jeers as Trump appeared on the Jumbotron during the national anthem — and again later in the match. Social media lit up with clips and commentary, with many users celebrating the crowd’s response while others criticized the disruption his visit caused.

For Trump, who has faced similar receptions at past sporting events, the moment was another reminder that in his native New York, the court of public opinion can be just as charged as the one hosting the match.
