SI's Best Shots from the Men's Final at the U.S. Open

Marin Cilic defeated Kei Nishikori 6-3, 6-3, 6-3 on Monday to win his first U.S. Open title. In a tournament full of upsets, Cilic pulled off the final one, carrying over the form that saw him upend No. 2 seed Roger Federer 6-3, 6-4, 6-4 in the semifinals to advance to his first Slam final. The 25-year-old became the first Croatian to win a major since Goran Ivanisevic won Wimbledon in 2001 and the first man ranked outside the top ten to win the U.S. Open since Pete Sampras in 2002.
