Savannah Guthrie and Michael Feldman apparently were not finished with the U.S. Open after their August date night.
The Today co-anchor returned to Arthur Ashe Stadium with her husband on September 13 for the men's singles final. TMZ photographed the couple smiling together before heading inside, with Guthrie wearing a black top and colorful skirt.
The outing came less than three weeks after Guthrie and Feldman attended a different U.S. Open event together on August 25. That night, they watched Roger Federer return to the court for exhibition matches involving Andy Roddick and Andre Agassi.
The two appearances have offered rare public glimpses of the couple during an intensely private year for their family. Guthrie's mother, Nancy Guthrie, has remained missing since February, and Feldman has largely stayed beside his wife.
HE DIDN'T REALIZE HE'D WON 🏆

Frances Tiafoe and Ben Shelton faced off in the U.S. Open semifinals aiming to end a long drought for American men in Grand Slam tournaments, with Shelton winning in four sets. Andy Roddick was the last U.S. man to win a major — in 2003. Since then European players have dominated. Juan Martín del Potro, the last non-European champion, believes American tennis has the potential to break this pattern. Del Potro is now an ******* yst for ESPN Latin America and has shared insights on his career and offered advice to Carlos Alcaraz on managing injuries. Del Potro retired in 2022 after multiple surgeries.
Ninety Grand Slam tournaments have passed since Andy Roddick defeated Juan Carlos Ferrero in the 2003 final at Flushing Meadows. Since then, no other U.S. male player has managed to win the U.S. Open on home soil or any of the other three majors.

Apart from Argentina's Juan Martín del Potro at the 2009 U.S. Open and his compatriot Gastón Gaudio at the 2004 French Open, every champion across the world's four major tournaments has been European.
On Friday night, Ben Shelton won in four sets the all-American U.S. Open semifinal with Frances Tiafoe and now will attempt to end the long wait for another men's Grand Slam champion from the United States. Shelton will play Alexander Zverev in the final.

With **** ignments that include calling three of tennis' four major tournaments and ESPN's top college football game weekly through the playoffs, Chris Fowler readily admits he's living the dream.
His weekend travel itinerary, however, hardly seemed the stuff of dreams.
After calling Friday's second U.S. Open semifinal, he was on a private flight that landed in Austin around 3 a.m. Saturday. Following a scant amount of sleep, there was a late-morning production meeting before calling Saturday night's matchup between No. 1 Ohio State and No. 4 Texas on ABC, arguably the top non-conference matchup in college football this season.
Once Saturday's game ends, it's back on a plane to New York for Sunday's 1 p.m. CT men's final on ABC between Alexander Zverez and Blake Shelton, with the latter trying to become the first American man to win a major since Andy Roddick at the 2003 U.S, Open.
"They are my two favorite sports and I get to call the championship events in them," Fowler told the Houston Chronicle on Saturday afternoon during a brief respite in Austin. "So that's a dream job. I live in the dream I had since I'm 10 years old."

Ben Shelton has been handed a potential blow ahead of his US Open final against Alexander Zverev, with girlfriend Trinity Rodman unlikely to be in the stands because of a scheduling clash.
The American tennis star booked his place in his first Grand Slam final by beating Frances Tiafoe 4-6, 6-3, 6-3, 7-5 on Friday night at Arthur Ashe Stadium.
Shelton now faces Zverev on Sunday with a chance to become the first American man to win a Grand Slam since Andy Roddick in 2003. However, he will have to overcome a difficult record against the German.

Rodman is scheduled to play for Washington Spirit against Boston Legacy FC in an NWSL away game on Sunday, with kick-off at 1pm local time.

For 23 years, it has been the world's most annoying sports trivia question: Who's the last American man to win a Grand Slam singles ****** le?
Ben Shelton has always been the one with the ability to change it.
No disrespect to any of the others who have carried the red, white and blue banner for more than two decades across the men's tennis tour since Andy Roddick won his US Open ****** le in 2003. John Isner served his way to millions of dollars and a few nice tournament wins. The likes of Mardy Fish and Sam Querrey did the best they could in the Roger Federer/Rafael Nadal/Novak Djokovic era. Taylor Fritz has worked tirelessly to improve his game and continues to be a factor among the best players in the world.
But there is no divine right for any country, even one as big and athletically successful as the USA, to produce Grand Slam champions in a global sport where only a select few are going to rise to the top. It takes everything: Talent, development, the right set of circumstances and maybe a little bit of luck.
And for Shelton, the 23-year old who was born in Atlanta, raised to be an NCAA champion in Gainesville, Fla., and unleashed onto the world stage by a meticulously patient father/coach, only one more match stands in his way of the ultimate American story.

Big-serving Ben Shelton overpowered American compatriot Frances Tiafoe in four sets to reach the first Grand Slam final of his career at the US Open on Friday.
Eighth-seeded Shelton blasted 20 aces on his way to a thrilling 4-6, 6-3, 6-3, 7-5 victory on the Arthur Ashe Stadium court that sends the 23-year-old into Sunday's championship match against top-seeded Alexander Zverev of Germany.
A pulsating all-American semi-final had seen both players vying to reach a Grand Slam final for the first time.
Shelton -- who took down defending champion Carlos Alcaraz in the quarter-finals -- will now have the chance to become the first American man to win a Grand Slam ****** le since 2003, when Andy Roddick triumphed at the US Open.
Tiafoe got off to a bright start, claiming the first set after breaking when Shelton uncharacteristically double-faulted to trail at 5-4.

NEW YORK (AP) — Ninety Grand Slam tournaments have passed since Andy Roddick defeated Juan Carlos Ferrero in the 2003 final at Flushing Meadows. Since then, no other U.S. male player has managed to win the U.S. Open on home soil or any of the other three majors.
Apart from Argentina's Juan Martín del Potro at the 2009 U.S. Open and his compatriot Gastón Gaudio at the 2004 French Open, every champion across the world's four major tournaments has been European.
Frances Tiafoe or Ben Shelton — who face off in the U.S. Open semifinals on Friday night — could end this drought for American men.
"You know the history; it was the era of the 'Big Three' (Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal, Novak Djokovic) — something unmatched," Del Potro told reporters. "But American tennis has the potential to break this pattern. There are so many good players now with the potential to be Grand Slam champions, and I sincerely believe Tiafoe or Shelton can do it."
As the last Grand Slam champion born outside of Europe, Del Potro takes pride in walking the grounds of the U.S. Open.

Top-seeded Alexander Zverev is the only Grand Slam champion still standing as the US Open men's singles hit the semi-final stage on Friday, when all eyes will be on the all-American matchup between eighth-seeded Ben Shelton and 11th seed Frances Tiafoe.
Shelton vanquished defending champion and seven-time major-winner Carlos Alcaraz in a gripping quarter-final that kept even Zverev watching until after 3:30 in the morning.
"I did not go to bed," the German said, predicting a "fun semi-final between two Americans."
Tiafoe also came through a dramatic five sets to reach the last four, rallying from two sets down to hand young compatriot Alex Michelsen a heartbreaking defeat.
Now he and Shelton will battle to become the first US man to reach the US Open final since Taylor Fritz in 2024 and have a chance to end the American men's 23-year Grand Slam ****** le drought -- stretching back to Andy Roddick's 2003 US Open triumph.

NEW YORK (AP) — Next up for Carlos Alcaraz at the U.S. Open is ... not who he thought it was.
Alcaraz was surprised to learn during an interview on ESPN after his victory Sunday that his quarterfinal match would be against either Ben Shelton or Stefanos Tsitsipas.
The defending champion visited the set after beating Tommy Paul in his fourth-round match. Andy Roddick, the 2003 U.S. Open champion, asked Alcaraz about the challenges either player would present.
A confused Alcaraz asked him to repeat the question.
"You're either going to play Shelton or Tsitsipas," Roddick said. "Maybe just a word on both of them and the challenges ..."

#alcaraz

On Sunday, Carlos Alcaraz beat Tommy Paul in straight sets to reach the quarterfinal of the US Open. His most formidable opponent awaited him after the match, however.
Live television.
Alcaraz joined Andy Roddick, Mary Joe Fernandez, and Rece Davis at the desk for ESPN's live coverage. Roddick asked Alcaraz for "a quick word" on Ben Shelton and Stefanos Tsitsipas and "the challenges that both of them could bring." Alcaraz looked completely dumbfounded and asked Roddick to repeat the question.
"You're either gonna play Shelton or Tsitsipas," Roddick said. "Maybe just a word on both of them."
"Oh, really? I thought…," Alcaraz interjected, leaning over to look at Roddick's copy of the men's draw. "Oh my god! I thought I was playing Daniil Medvedev [or Frances] Tiafoe. Oh my god. Thank you."

NEW YORK (AP) — Frances Tiafoe and Alex Michelsen are headed to the U.S. Open quarterfinals. Ben Shelton had a chance to join them with a victory Sunday night.
The American men are making a real run at ending their lengthy Grand Slam drought.
The U.S. hasn't had a men's major champion since Andy Roddick won in Flushing Meadows in 2003, and there haven't even been many great opportunities in the more than two decades since.
But backed by the home crowd and in good form, the Americans had five players in the final 16 of a major for the first time since 1995 and will be a real threat in the second week of the final Grand Slam tournament of the season.
"We play so much outside of the States obviously, a lot of time in Europe," Tiafoe said. "This sport's so international, so to be able to play in front of friends, family, loved ones, is amazing. They don't get to see you much, so you want to put on a show."

Jannik Sinner is missed by the tennis world at the 2026 US Open. The defending Wimbledon champion and reigning ATP World No. 1 player has been out of commission with a knee injury.
In the preceding years, fans grew accustomed to seeing Sinner and his biggest rival Carlos Alcaraz compete against each other for Grand Slam ***** les. 2026 has been a different story with only the Australian Open following that script. Alcaraz missed the French Open and Wimbledon with a wrist injury prior to Sinner opting out of the US Open.
However, fans were happy to see Sinner out and about today at a somewhat expected location, outside of a tennis court, at a Formula 1 race in Italy. The Italian Grand Prix originated in 1921, and we know the Sinner family are big fans.

The American charge faltered at the US Open after shock defeats for Taylor Fritz, Madison Keys and Amanda Anisimova.
Fritz, the ninth seed, looked to be cruising into the fourth round when he moved two sets ahead of Argentina's Federico Cerundolo.
The 28-year-old, runner-up two years ago, had not dropped a set all week and appeared to be on the verge of joining compatriots Ben Shelton, Frances Tiafoe, Tommy Paul and Alex Michelson in the last 16.
But Cerundolo, the surprise winner at Queen's Club earlier this summer, scrapped his way back into an error-heavy match and won 3-6 4-6 6-3 6-4 6-4.
The host nation is still looking for its first men's singles ****** le winner since 2003, when Andy Roddick beat Juan Carlos Ferrero in the final.

American tennis has been buoyed by women for the last decade, but in the early 2000s, Andy Roddick was one of the United States' biggest stars.
The tennis champion, 43, retired from the sport in 2012 and just made his debut covering a Grand Slam for a television network. Andy joined the ESPN team for this year's Wimbledon. While he is stepping back into the spotlight for the summer tournament, over the past 15 years, Andy's watched his personal life flourish.
In 2009, he married his model wife, Brooklyn Decker, 39,. After tying the knot, the couple went on to welcome two children, a son Hank, 10, and a daughter Stevie, eight.
Here's everything we know about Brooklyn, their relationship, and their kids.
