The absence of Sinner, the doubts surrounding Djokovic, the aftereffect of Zverev's success, and the emergence of new players in the circuit, such as Jódar, make the event uncertain. The women’s tournament will also have very high expectations, with Aryna Sabalenka trying to escape a crisis that could lead her to lose the number 1 ranking to Elena Rybakina.

In addition, up to ten channels will be made available with coverage from all competition courts for all customers who have subscribed to the Sports+ package, where interviews and pre-match and analysis programs will also be shown. In the first week of the tournament, with many interesting matches played simultaneously, this media deployment will be very valuable for fans.

Schedules for the US Open 2026

We will soon prepare a complete article with the entire calendar and schedules for the US Open 2026, but it is worth noting that each day will start at 11:00 local time, which means 5:00 PM in Spain. There will be a night session at the Arthur Ashe Stadium and Louis Armstrong Stadium, which will start at 7:00 PM local time, translating to 1:00 AM in Spain, consisting of two matches on each court.

It won't be until the semifinals that the schedules change and players located in opposite parts of the draw compete on the same day. Thus, on Thursday, September 10, the women’s semifinals will take place in a night session starting at 1:00 AM in Spain, while the men’s semifinals will be on Friday, September 11, starting at 9:00 PM in Spain, with the first semifinal, and the second no earlier than 1:00 AM.

The women's final will be on Saturday, September 12, at 10:00 PM in Spain, which is 4:00 PM in New York, while the men's final will be played on Sunday, September 13, starting at 8:00 PM in Spain, which corresponds to 2:00 PM in Flushing Meadows.

Who are the players to watch at the US Open 2026

It goes without saying that the biggest focus of attention in tennis, not only Spanish but worldwide, will be on the performance of Carlos Alcaraz after such a long time out of the courts due to injury. Sinner's absence may slightly ease the path for dreaming of a mythical title for the Murcian, whose main competitors will be Novak Djokovic and Alexander Zverev, at least by name and ranking.

And none of them seems to be arriving in great shape. This opens the range of candidates for surprises, with Ben Shelton and Arthur Fils as references for having emerged victorious in the Masters 1000 of the North American tour, but also Rafael Jódar as a potential big revelation.

Regarding the women’s tournament, a fierce battle is expected between Aryna Sabalenka and her own demons as she tries to regain her best version and stay as the number 1 player in the world, which could fall to Elena Rybakina. It will be very interesting to see what Iga Swiatek is capable of, as well as a Cori Gauff arriving from Cincinnati brimming with confidence. An important mention is also the possibility of seeing Serena Williams competing in a US Open 2026 that promises to be thrilling.
