Шаблон:GrandSlamEvents Шаблон:Main
Jimmy Connors defeated Ken Rosewall in the final, 6–1, 6–0, 6–1 to win the men's singles tennis title at the 1974 U.S. Open.[1] It set the record for the shortest ever major men's singles final, both in number of games and duration, lasting only 1 hour and 18 minutes and 20 games.
Connors became the first player to win 3 out of 4 majors (missed the French Open due to his ban from French Tennis Federation preventing being a member of World Team Tennis league) in a season since the introduction of Association of Tennis Professionals in 1972.
John Newcombe was the defending champion, but lost in the semifinals to Rosewall.
This was the last edition of the tournament to be played on grass courts; the following three years would feature clay courts, and afterwards hardcourts.
