Match schedule Sunday, September 6 at the 2026 US Open: Alcaraz, in the daytime session

A Sunday filled with exciting matches awaits us in a US Open that is now entering its second week of competition. Buckle up: the menu for the seventh day of competition will feature names like Carlos Alcaraz and Aryna Sabalenka, stars who will open the round of 16 on a special day for Americans (the local audience will fill the stands due to the Labour Day holiday, which takes place the following Monday, allowing many to stick around until the end).

It is perhaps surprising, given all this, that Carlos Alcaraz will again occupy the day session, though this is something that happened last year as well. The Murcian will step onto the court to face Tommy Paul not before 8:00 PM Spanish time (2:00 PM local time), preceded by an Aryna Sabalenka vs Taylor Townsend match that will kick off the day. It may be surprising that a match between the world number one and an American is not also part of the night session, but the New York audience will have stars in every match of it.

What are the matches early Sunday morning at the US Open?

Ben Shelton has energized the Arthur Ashe with his charisma, being the star of the night sessions at this US Open. This is the third opportunity for the title contender, this time against the revived Stefanos Tsitsipas: both will help kick off prime time, starting at 1:00 AM Spanish time, in a day that will culminate with the surprising Emma Navarro vs Anna Kalinskaya.

There is also a night session at Louis Armstrong... and if Shelton is the king of the Ashe, Frances Tiafoe is the commander of the second most important court. Again, at the request of the Maryland native, enamored with the atmosphere there, the American will enjoy playing under the lights against Daniil Medvedev, giving us a doubleheader of matches well past midnight that is quite appealing. Pegula and Cirstea will close the day at Armstrong, while Alex Michelsen and Tomás Etcheverry will battle for a spot in the quarterfinals at the Grandstand, not before 8:30 PM.
