World No. 1 Novak Djokovic and five-time US Open champion Roger Federer have been named the top two seeds in men's singles at the 2015 US Open.

Former US Open champions Andy Murray (2012), Rafael Nadal (2010, 13) and Marin Cilic (2014) are all seeded in the Top 10 - Murray at No. 3, Nadal at No. 8 and Cilic at No. 9.
