Mats Wilander defeated the three-time defending champion Ivan Lendl in a rematch of the previous year's final, 6–4, 4–6, 6–3, 5–7, 6–4 to win the men's singles tennis title at the 1988 US Open.[1] It was the longest US Open men's singles final in history, lasting 4 hours and 54 minutes.[2] With the win, Wilander gained the world No. 1 ranking for the first time, replacing Lendl.

This was the first major in which future 14-time major champion Pete Sampras and future four-time major champion Jim Courier competed in the main draw.[3]
