Alex De Minaur has confirmed his participation in this month's US Open, marking his return to competitive tennis after withdrawing from the Paris Olympics due to a hip injury.

De Minaur's decision to participate in the tournament adds to the anticipation and excitement surrounding the event, as fans eagerly await his comeback on the tennis court.
