Here’s a breakdown of ⁤the key data from the provided ‍text:

Trump’s Attendance: Donald Trump is attending the US Open Men’s‍ Singles Final (Sinner ⁤vs. Alcaraz) as a sponsor ⁢guest. He is scheduled to be shown ⁢on⁣ screen during the national anthem.
Broadcaster Instructions: The‍ USTA (United States Tennis Association) has‍ asked broadcasters to avoid showing any disruptions or reactions to Trump’s presence. ‍This is likely due to the negative reaction (booing) he received during his⁣ last‍ US Open ⁤appearance in 2015. Sponsor: Trump⁤ is being hosted by Rolex, a Swiss luxury watchmaker, ⁣in a ⁢suite at Ashe Stadium.
ESPN’s Response: An anonymous⁢ ESPN source says the network plans to cover the final as they‍ would any other sporting event, without altering their broadcast.
Limited Talking Points: The USTA ⁢provided limited‍ “talking points” to the ⁤press, simply stating Trump⁤ is ⁢attending as a sponsor guest.
Past Incident: Trump was booed by spectators during ⁣a 2015⁣ match between Venus and Serena Williams.
* Economic Context: The U.S. is a major market ⁤for Swiss watches, and Trump previously imposed ⁣a ‍39% tariff on them.
