The 2024 US Open is expected to attract a record 1 million spectators, prompting the NYPD to implement extensive security measures amid heightened global tensions, particularly related to the Israel-Hamas conflict. NYPD Deputy Commissioner Rebecca Weiner highlighted the need for increased vigilance, stating that while there are no credible threats, the department is prepared for potential disruptions, especially around protests. The security plan includes visible and discreet measures, such as patrols, screening checkpoints, and the deployment of drones and specialized units.
