Schedule and where to watch Alcaraz's next match at the US Open against Tommy Paul
We detail everything you need to know about Carlos Alcaraz's upcoming match in New York: it begins the second week and will be against the always competitive Tommy Paul.
Carlos Alcaraz continues his unstoppable journey in the US Open 2026, where he is already positioning himself as one of the top candidates for the title. As fans, we have missed the smile, charisma, and joy that the player from Murcia transmits in every match, qualities that have manifested in his matches during the first week, where he has dropped hardly any sets.
However, now the second week of competition begins, and Carlos must prepare to raise the bar. Maximum demand starts from the round of 16, a new challenge that will put him face to face with a familiar opponent. It is Tommy Paul, with whom he has a long history of matches and who stands in his way to advance to the round of 16.

So far, Carlos Alcaraz's performance in this US Open is, at the very least, notable. In his first tournament after more than four and a half months, and with the uncertainty of what version of the player from Murcia we were going to see after such a long break, his wrist has responded more than favorably; the block of intense training in Murcia did its job, and Carlitos is showing himself, up to now, as another contender for the title.
However, the Murcia native was not entirely satisfied after his last match against Yibing Wu: the number of unforced errors on his forehand (which were not capitalized by the Chinese player, who had a rather irregular performance) led Carlos to practice that shot minutes after the match concluded. There is no doubt that he will want to find a better version in this area against a rival who raises the tournament's standards: Tommy Paul.
The American arrives at this match after experiencing a significant boost in morale: he came back from 1-2 down against Alexander Bublik and did so showing great physical endurance, taking revenge on the Kazakh (who eliminated him last year in the same round in another five-set thriller). It is one of Tommy's best victories in a year that has been more irregular than usual, in which he has not reached as many final rounds as in other seasons; the US Open is undoubtedly a potential perfect balm.
They know each other well: they have faced each other up to eight times, with Alcaraz comfortably leading the head-to-head (8 to 2). It is true that the American was one of Carlitos' first "black beasts," putting him in difficulty during his early years in the elite, but the player from Murcia has found the antidote in recent encounters to curb Tommy's attacks.
At what time does Alcaraz play against Tommy Paul at the US Open 2026?
The match between Carlos Alcaraz and Tommy Paul corresponding to the round of 16 of the US Open will take place in the second turn on the Central Court on Sunday, September 6. The schedule is very clear and will not depend on previous matches: it will start at 20:00 mainland time (14:00 local time), unless the first match of the day, preceding it, the duel between Aryna Sabalenka and Taylor Townsend (which will begin at 17:30 Spanish time), runs longer than this schedule.
Thus, the Spaniard repeats in the day session, a time slot he occupied in his first round against Safiullin and in his third round against Wu. There were possibilities of returning to the night session, which he only occupied in his second round against Jaime Faria, but the tournament organization has placed Ben Shelton in that slot again, who will face Stefanos Tsitsipas in his round of 16 match.
