Novak Djokovic defeated Daniil Medvedev in straight sets on Sunday to win his fourth US Open and a record-equalling 24th Grand Slam singles title.

• The 36-year-old Djokovic won 6-3, 7-6 (5), 6-3 to become the oldest men’s champion in New York in the Open Era and matched Margaret Court’s all-time mark for most Grand Slam victories.
• The Serbian is the first man to win three Grand Slam events in the same season four times, crowning his impending return to world No 1 in the most fitting of ways inside Arthur Ashe Stadium.
• The victory added to his wins at the Australian and French Opens earlier this year, with the only blemish his five-set defeat to Carlos Alcaraz in the final of Wimbledon in July.
