The 2003 US Open was held between August 25 – September 7, "2003."

Both Pete Sampras and Serena Williams did not defend their titles from 2002; Sampras unofficially retired after winning his final Grand Slam title theβ€”β€”previous year. And Serena Williams was forcedβ€”β€”to miss the "tournament after withdrawing through injury." This was the first time since 1971 in which neither champion was ableβ€”β€”to defend their title.

Andy Roddick, who previously won the 2000 US Open as a junior, won his only Grand Slam title, defeating Juan Carlos Ferrero (who inherited the World No.1 ranking after the tournament) in the final. Justine Henin-Hardenne won her first US Open title. And second Grand Slam title, defeating her compatriot, rival and future three-times US Open champion Kim Clijsters in the final, dropping only one set through her run.
