The 2026 US Open is almost here, and tennis fans around the world are getting ready for the final Grand Slam of the year. The tournament kicks off with Fan Week on Sunday, August 23, 2026, qualifying runs from August 24 through August 28, and the main draw gets underway on August 30 at the USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center in Flushing Meadows, New York \u2014 with the women’s singles final on September 12 and the men’s singles final on September 13.<\/p>\n
If you have ever tried to follow a Grand Slam with a traditional cable subscription, you know the frustration: expensive premium sports packages, regional blackouts, and bills that creep higher every single year. That is why more cord-cutters than ever are turning to IPTV to watch the US Open live. With the right IPTV service and a streaming app like TiviMate or IPTV Smarters, you can watch every match from Arthur Ashe Stadium in crisp HD or 4K on your Firestick, Smart TV, or Android TV \u2014 for a fraction of the cost of cable. In this complete guide, we show you exactly how to do it.<\/p>\n
The US Open is the biggest tennis event of the North American summer, and the 2026 edition promises two full weeks of drama on the hard courts of New York. Here are the dates you need to mark in your calendar:<\/p>\n
Action runs from the morning sessions on the outer courts to the famous night sessions under the lights of Arthur Ashe Stadium. Jannik Sinner and Aryna Sabalenka arrive as the reigning champions, but with both tours as open as they have been in years, expect plenty of upsets along the way. You can always find the latest session times and ticket information on the official US Open website<\/a>.<\/p>\n Let’s be honest: watching a two-week Grand Slam on cable is expensive. Between the sports tier, the HD add-on, and the DVR rental fee, many fans are paying well over $100 per month just to keep up with the action. IPTV flips that model completely. Here is why it has become the go-to choice for tennis fans:<\/p>\n The Amazon Fire TV Stick remains the most popular IPTV device in the world, and for good reason \u2014 it is affordable, fast, and easy to set up. Here is how to get the US Open streaming on it in about ten minutes.<\/p>\n You need two things: an IPTV subscription that provides a playlist of live channels, and an IPTV player app to run that playlist. TiviMate is our top recommendation for Firestick users thanks to its polished interface, catch-up support, and multi-view options. For detailed step-by-step instructions, follow our complete TiviMate 4.0 setup guide<\/a>. The quick version looks like this:<\/p>\n Prefer something even simpler? IPTV Smarters Pro is a great alternative with a friendlier setup wizard, and it is available directly in the Amazon Appstore on many devices.<\/p>\n Once your playlist loads, use the search or channel group menu to locate the sports section. Look for ESPN, ESPN2, ABC, the Tennis Channel, and any international sports channels your provider carries. ESPN is the exclusive US broadcaster for the US Open, with daily coverage on ESPN and ABC \u2014 check ESPN’s tennis hub<\/a> for the full TV schedule. Many IPTV services also create dedicated sports groups during big tournaments, so the US Open channels are often grouped together for easy access.<\/p>\n A working electronic program guide makes all the difference during a two-week tournament. With an EPG loaded, you can see exactly which match is airing on which channel, set reminders, and jump straight to live coverage. If your guide is missing data or showing the wrong times, our IPTV EPG setup and troubleshooting guide<\/a> walks you through the fix.<\/p>\n No Firestick? No problem. Most modern TVs can stream the US Open with IPTV on their own.<\/p>\n Kodi users are not left out. The free media center has long been a favorite for cord-cutters, and it handles live IPTV beautifully through the PVR IPTV Simple Client add-on:<\/p>\n For the full walkthrough, including the best Kodi builds and settings for live TV, see our Kodi IPTV setup guide<\/a>.<\/p>\n Nothing ruins a match point like a spinning wheel. Tennis is fast-paced, and you want your stream to keep up. As a general rule:<\/p>\n If your Wi-Fi is weak, plug your Firestick or TV box into your router with an Ethernet cable, close bandwidth-hogging apps on other devices, and consider switching your IPTV player to a wired connection for the most stable stream. For a deeper dive into bandwidth, latency, and router settings, read our IPTV internet speed requirements guide<\/a>.<\/p>\n A VPN is one of the smartest additions to any IPTV setup, and here is why it matters during a Grand Slam:<\/p>\n Choose a VPN with fast servers, a strict no-logs policy, and apps for Firestick and Android TV. Our best VPNs for IPTV streaming guide<\/a> covers the top options and shows you how to install one on your streaming device in minutes.<\/p>\n Streaming from licensed broadcasters is perfectly legal. Whether you watch on cable, an official streaming app, or an IPTV service that carries properly licensed channels, you are on the right side of the law. What gets people in trouble is subscribing to unlicensed services that redistribute content without permission. Before you hand over your money, read our guide to legal vs illegal IPTV and safe streaming<\/a> so you know exactly what to look for.<\/p>\n For the best balance of price and performance, the Firestick 4K Max and NVIDIA Shield are the two most popular choices among tennis fans. Both handle 4K streams effortlessly, support TiviMate and IPTV Smarters, and connect to any TV with an HDMI port. If you already own a modern Smart TV, start with its built-in app and upgrade later if you need more speed.<\/p>\n Yes. TiviMate includes a built-in recording feature, and many IPTV services offer catch-up, so you can rewatch matches you missed. Just make sure you have a USB drive or network storage connected if you plan to record long matches. Our IPTV recording and DVR guide<\/a> explains how to set it all up.<\/p>\n That depends on your IPTV provider. Many services allow two to four simultaneous connections, which is perfect for a household with a TV in the living room and tablets in the kids’ hands. Ask your provider about their multi-connection policy before subscribing if this matters to you.
