Rafael Nadal defeated Daniil Medvedev in the final, 7–5, 6–3, 5–7, 4–6, 6–4 to win the men's singles tennis title at the 2019 US Open. It was his fourth US Open title and 19th major title overall. Nadal's victory meant that every Grand Slam title since the beginning of 2017 had been won by either himself (5), Novak Djokovic (4) or Roger Federer (3). This was the first time since 2006–08 that Djokovic, Federer, and Nadal had claimed all four Grand Slam singles titles in three consecutive years.

Novak Djokovic was the defending champion, but retired due to a left shoulder injury against Stan Wawrinka in the fourth round. This was the first time since 2006 that Djokovic failed to reach the semifinals at the US Open (not counting the 2017 tournament, which he missed due to injury).

The respective losses of Wawrinka and Federer in the quarterfinals guaranteed a first time major finalist in the top half of the draw. Medvedev became the second Russian player (after Marat Safin) to reach the US Open men's singles final. Medvedev also became the first Russian man to reach a major final since Safin at the 2005 Australian Open.

Grigor Dimitrov (ranked 78th) became the lowest ranked men's singles semifinalist at the US Open since Jimmy Connors (ranked 174th) in 1991. Dimitrov was also the lowest ranked men's singles semifinalist at any Grand Slam tournament since Rainer Schüttler (ranked 92nd) at the 2008 Wimbledon Championships.

This was the first major men's singles tournament since the 2012 US Open without at least two former major champions in the semifinals. It was also the first time in the Open Era that 4 quarterfinalists (Federer, Nadal, Wawrinka and Gaël Monfils) were 33 years old or older.

It was also the last major appearance for 2010 Wimbledon finalist and former world No. 4 Tomáš Berdych.
