THE HOME OF GRAND SLAM TENNIS, STAN SPORT

MONDAY 31 AUGUST - MONDAY 14 SEPTEMBER

27 August 2026 - The final Grand Slam of 2026 takes centre stage this week as the world’s best tennis stars clash at Flushing Meadows. Stan Sport is the only place Australian fans can stream every single match live and on demand, plus Grand Slam Daily, bringing viewers the latest news, analysis, and big moments.

Laying the foundation for two weeks of world-class tennis, tournament festivities kicked off earlier this week with Singles Qualifying and Mixed Doubles fixtures, paving the way for main draw action to launch from 31 August to 14 September.

With World No. 1 Jannik Sinner [1] ruled out of the tournament, the men’s draw is wide open for an unpredictable battle. After four months on the sidelines due to injury, defending champion Carlos Alcaraz [3] makes his high-stakes return, putting his title on the line against top rivals World No. 2 Alexander Zverev [2] and 24-time Grand Slam champion Novak Djokovic [5].

An impressive Australian line-up takes centre stage, spearheaded by the nation's top-ranked player Alex de Minaur [7], alongside Alexei Popyrin [130], Jordan Thompson [333], and rising 20-year-old star Maya Joint [75], who carries strong momentum into her women's singles campaign.

The women's field promises fierce competition, headlined by World No. 1 and two-time defending US Open champion Aryna Sabalenka [1] as she bids to complete a historic three-peat in New York, alongside home favourite Coco Gauff [4] and World No. 2 Iga Swiatek [8].

For all the US Open headlines, talking points and highlights, Grand Slam Daily will be streaming every afternoon of the tournament live and exclusive on Stan from 4:00 pm AEST. ​

Hosted by Chris Stubbs, Grand Slam Daily brings fans exclusive interviews with international superstars and Aussie favourites straight from the ground in New York. Joining the show throughout the tournament is an elite lineup of expert analysts, including international stars Daniela Hantuchova and Andrea Petkovic, Aussie legends Mark Woodforde, Sam Stosur, and Rennae Stubbs, and veteran coach Josh Eagle.

The US Open is just one part of a blockbuster month on Stan Sport. Fans can dive into a stacked schedule featuring the new Premier League season in full swing, the historic South Africa v All Blacks series, and every moment of the Wallabies' Flight Centre Series and Bledisloe Cup campaign.

Watch all the action from US Open 2026 live & on-demand on Stan Sport.
