The final week before the US Open is here, but there is still plenty of tennis to watch before the action begins at Flushing Meadows.
The
Winston-Salem Open on the ATP Tour and
Abierto GNP Seguros Monterrey on the WTA Tour are both taking place from August 23-29, with players using the final tournaments before the year's final Grand Slam to sharpen their hard-court form.
For tennis fans in the UK, United States and Australia, both tournaments are available live, with coverage spread across Sky Sports, Tennis Channel and beIN Sports.
In the UK, Sky Sports is the broadcaster and it will be shown on Sky Sports Tennis, Sky Sports + and with occasional Sky Sports Main Event coverage. With it being in the US, it is very much likely that it will be more late-night and early-morning nature of some matches. It will also feature more matches that are likely to appeal more to British fans e.g if Katie Boulter, Sonay Kartal, Emma Raducanu are involved they are more likely to be focused upon.
Quick answer:
Winston-Salem: Sky Sports in the UK, Tennis Channel in the US and beIN Sports in Australia.
Monterrey: Sky Sports in the UK, Tennis Channel in the US and beIN Sports in Australia.
Dates: August 23-29, 2026.
