Last year, beneath the lights, in front of a 23,000 crowd cheering with each point, Frances Tiafoe played a match inside Arthur Ashe Stadium as he attempted to defeat Carlos Alcaraz, the eventual U.S. Open champion and No. 1.
He could hear Michelle Obama, who was seated in the President’s Box’s front row, encouraging him. The largest match an American man had played at the U.S. Open in years was seen by many of Tiafoe’s friends and family in the lower bowl.
In the biggest venue in the sport, the outcome might be a lifeless, half-empty environment, especially for a largely lopsided victory like Tiafoe’s crushing victory over Learner Tien by scores of 6-2, 7-5, and 6-1.
