The US Open prepares for its final match today between Serbian Novak Djokovic and Brit Andy Murray, but this year's championship has already offered spectators and photographers some incredible moments.

Serena Williams winning her fourth US Open and 15th Grand Slam Title; Actor Kevin Spacey swinging a racket; torrential, tornado-level downpours interrupting matches—there's already been a fair share of excitement on (and around) the court at the USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center at Flushing Meadows-Corona Park in Queens, New York City.

Here, we round up some of the tournament's best photo-worthy moments.
