US Open broadcasters have been asked not to show any negative crowd reactions to Donald Trump at Sunday’s men’s final.
The president is expected to attend the match between Jannik Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz in New York, with security at Flushing Meadows being heightened in preparation.

Trump used to be a regular visitor to the US Open but has not been to the tournament since 2015, a year before he was elected president for the first time, when he was booed by spectators.
An email sent to broadcasters by organisers reveals that the 79-year-old will be shown on screen during the singing of the national anthem ahead of the match.
The message adds: “We ask all broadcasters to refrain from showing any disruptions or reactions in response to the president’s attendance in any capacity.”
Trump’s visit threatens to take some of the spotlight away from Alcaraz and Sinner, who are meeting in a third successive grand slam final.
Alcaraz, though, believes it is good for tennis to have the president in attendance, saying: “It is a privilege for the tournaments having the president from every country just to support the tournament, to support tennis, and to support the match.
“For me, playing in front of him, I will try not to be focused on that, and I will try not to think about it. I don’t want myself to be nervous because of it, but I think, attending the tennis match, it’s great for tennis to have the president coming to the final.”
