Mariano Navone Stuns Novak Djokovic in US Open 2026
Mariano Navone produced one of the biggest upsets of US Open 2026 by defeating fourth seed Novak Djokovic in the opening round at Flushing Meadows.
The 25-year-old Argentine handed Djokovic his first-ever first-round defeat at the US Open, ending the 24-time Grand Slam champion’s impressive record at the tournament. Navone, who won his maiden ATP Tour title on clay at the 2026 Bucharest Open, entered the contest with a modest 12-29 career record on hard courts. Despite being more comfortable on clay, he delivered a remarkable performance against Djokovic, who was making his 20th US Open appearance.
Navone has also recorded notable victories over Felix Auger-Aliassime and Casper Ruud. Calling the victory a “dream come true,” Navone described beating his idol as an unbelievable moment in his career.
