Alexander Zverev recorded 66 consecutive service holds against Ben Shelton before the 2026 US Open final.
Zverev’s remarkable run of 66 holds against Shelton ended in the final game of the third set. He then held serve in each of the next four games, so the match still contained another short hold streak after the record sequence was broken.
A service hold means winning a game served by that player. It does not mean winning a set, and it is not the same as winning every point on serve. The statistic therefore measures repeated protection of service games across their previous meetings and the final.
Zverev defeated Shelton 6–3, 7–6(2), 5–7, 6–2 to win the men’s singles title. The victory gave him his second Grand Slam singles championship.
