Centre Court slate features defending champions, Alcaraz, Jabeur and Fritz
On Centre Court at the Cincinnati Open, it all kicks off with ninth seed, Taylor Fritz who will face Jiri Lehecka. Having hardly lost any matches in recent months, the American has been on top form and heading into the US Open will hope that continues.
Defending champion Borna Coric follows in one of the main matches that was delayed due to rain with Coric 7-6, 4-3 up on Sebastian Korda. Alexander Zverev finally then gets his tournament underway. He faces Grigor Dimitrov in the third match up.
Ons Jabeur who has been missing injury wise since losing in the Wimbledon final will hope to recompose ahead of a busy time with Cincinnati shortly followed by the US Open. She takes on Rome finalist, Anhelina Kalinina.
Caroline Garcia, who like Coric is defending champion in her breakout 2022 will also hope to recapture her form. A year that has been steady but unspectacular, her points will soon drop off. She faces Sloane Stephens.
Before Carlos Alcaraz after a disappointing Toronto losing to Tommy Paul again aims to recapture his form after a puzzling tournament, he faces Jordan Thompson.

- I, like writer of this wonderful article, also picked Noskova to win this entire thing. I would love it if she and Andreeva are in the final.Rapunzel12-11-2026
- "Priorities", Saba... spend less time in front of cameras, anti-Social Media, selfies and back to Tennis.
mandoist12-11-2026 - Tell this to Andreeva!
mandoist12-11-2026 - Andreeva with 11 games in a row to add to Saba's downward spiral issue !!! Personal feelings aside... Jess Pegula may want to reassess her evaluation of Mirra's abilities.
mandoist12-11-2026 - I predicted whenthe list was finalised that Linda Noskova would win the WTA Finals and her matches against Gauff and Kostyuk prove that. She is the best (underrated) player in the world!Rapunzel11-11-2026
- Either Lena has a chronic internal ailment (i.e., colitis, enteritis, Crohn's, or some type of lower abdomen issue) -- or she is once again dealing with 'Vukovitis'. Mental stress can indeed cause lower body pains. No matter... whatever is truly going on sucks. "Virus" excuse is getting a bit old -- and often -- at this point.
mandoist09-11-2026 - Ironically, Martina became a U.S. Citizen about the same time as the Orange Convicted Felon & Abuser was just beginning on his road to losing all Daddy's Millions!!
mandoist09-11-2026 - "Another fresh start is in the cards." Thanks for the Humor!! I'm guessing this is the minimum one can do to keep all your sponsors hanging-on in perpetuity?
mandoist09-11-2026 - Vukov is doing this to Lena... AGAIN!!!!! WTA's autonomous collective should be dismantled for allowing Vukov to re-emerge from his hand-slapping suspension. Just ask WTA employees how that's been going lately as they witness his continued verbal abuses. Women's Pro Tennis should start over.
mandoist08-11-2026 - Can't help but suspect Vukov is back to his old self again. Thank you, WTA. Perhaps you can give them a "Battling Couple of the Year Award 2026" ??
