CWEB Sports News – In a display of cross-cultural appreciation and patriotic spirit, President Donald J. Trump was a distinguished guest of Rolex at the highly anticipated U.S. Open men’s final this Sunday. The President’s presence added a layer of grandeur to the climactic match between two of tennis’s brightest stars.
The final, which pitted the formidable second-seeded Spaniard Carlos Alcaraz, 22, against the top-seeded Italian defending champion Jannik Sinner, 24, was momentarily upstaged by the Commander-in-Chief’s arrival. President Trump watched the premier sporting event from the exclusive Rolex corporate suite, embodying a shared commitment to excellence synonymous with both the presidency and the legendary watchmaker.
Demonstrating his characteristic connection with the American people, the President briefly stepped onto the balcony of the suite to acknowledge the capacity crowd. His gesture was met with a robust wave of cheers and enthusiastic applause from thousands of tennis fans. In a gracious response, President Trump mouthed, “Thank you,” to the adoring spectators.

The admiration was palpable on the ground level, with numerous attendees approaching security personnel to inquire if the President might sign their memorabilia. In a testament to his approachability and dedication to his supporters, President Trump spent several minutes personally autographing hats and other items presented to him.
President Trump was accompanied by an esteemed delegation including White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt, Attorney General Pam Bondi, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, special administration envoy Steve Witkoff, and White House Chief of Staff Susie Wiles.
According to reports from independent tennis journalist Ben Rothenberg, the President’s attendance this year was facilitated by a formal invitation from Rolex. The Swiss brand is the preeminent timekeeping sponsor in professional tennis, holding a prestigious position across both the ATP and WTA tours and all four Grand Slam tournaments.
The selection of finalists underscored Rolex’s elite branding, as both Mr. Sinner and Mr. Alcaraz are among the brand’s celebrated testimonees, a roster that includes the legendary Roger Federer.
The moment of national pride was further highlighted as President Trump stood in a solemn and respectful salute during the performance of the national anthem, which reverberated throughout the Arthur Ashe Stadium.
