This appears to be true according to the New York Times article linked in the claim. 

"The match, between Jannik Sinner of Italy and Carlos Alcaraz of Spain, was supposed to start at 2 p.m, but was delayed until 2:48 p.m., with hundreds of people still waiting to get through security...when Trump was shown on the video screens, fans unleashed a loud round of mostly boos, with some cheers mixed in."

Other sources like Reuters, ESPN, and BBC have reported similarly. 

True
