Match schedule for Thursday, September 3, 2026 at the US Open: Star matchup on Arthur Ashe for Badosa-Gauff
The US Open will experience a new second-round day this Thursday, September 3, with eight matches scheduled between the two main courts of the tournament. Paula Badosa against Coco Gauff will be the main highlight of the day, although Arthur Ashe and Louis Armstrong will offer a lineup full of great names.
The action at Arthur Ashe will begin with the women's match between Naomi Osaka and Katerina Siniakova, before it’s time for ninth seed Taylor Fritz to face the Italian Mattia Bellucci. The big match of the night session will be the much-anticipated Badosa-Gauff, with the Spaniard trying to prolong her adventure in New York against the tournament’s fourth seed. The day will close on the central court with Alexander Zverev, the top seed in the men's draw, facing the Frenchman Quentin Halys.
High level also at Louis Armstrong
Louis Armstrong is not falling behind either. The program will kick off with a challenging men's match between third seed Félix Auger-Aliassime and Karen Khachanov. The Canadian is considered one of the players expected to go far in New York and will face a rival with more than enough experience to challenge him.
Next up will be Oleksandra Oliynykova and the seventeenth seed Alexandra Eala, in one of the women's matches of the day. The New York court will later host Gaël Monfils, who will face American Learner Tien, the fourteenth favorite. The last match at Louis Armstrong will feature Spanish player Jessica Bouzas Maneiro, who will take on one of her tournament's toughest challenges against Elena Rybakina, the second seed and one of the main title contenders.
Among all these encounters, Badosa-Gauff captures much of the Spanish attention. The Catalan arrives after defeating Daria Kasatkina in a match that took two days due to rain, which she finally closed out with her ninth match point.
