The 1975 US Open was a tennis tournament that took place on the outdoor clay courts at the Forest Hills, Queens in New York, United States. The tournament ran from 27 August until 7 September. It was the 95th staging of the US Open, and the fourth Grand Slam tennis event of 1975. During the final three years at the Forest Hills location, 1975-1977, the US Open was played on a green-colored Har-Tru clay surface, a surface slightly harder and faster than red clay. The switch came after player complaints about the poor state and uneven ball bounce on the grass courts of Forrest Hills.

Spain Manuel Orantes defeated United States Jimmy Connors, 6–4, 6–3, 6–4

United States Chris Evert defeated Australia Evonne Goolagong Cawley, 5–7, 6–4, 6–2
