DJOKOVIC VS MEDVEDEV US OPEN FINAL HIGHLIGHTS

Switzerland’s Roger Federer, and USA’s Pete Sampras and Jimmy Connors hold the record for most US Open titles (5) won by a man. However, Connors is the only one to have done it on all three surfaces - grass, clay and hard court.
Federer is also the last man to win two successive titles in New York in 2007-08.
