How to Watch the US Open Tennis Live Stream (2024)

ESPN has the broadcast rights for the US Open Tennis Championship, so cable and satellite subscribers can stream through the official WatchESPN site. Everyone else can get in on the action through a streaming service like Hulu With Live TV or YouTube TV. All you need is a laptop, tablet, or phone, a high-speed internet connection, and a suitable television streaming app.

How to Stream the US Open from ESPN

If you have a cable or satellite subscription, but you want to stream the US Open on a computer or laptop instead of watching on your television, you can use the WatchESPN live streaming website. This site provides free access to sports events broadcast on ESPN and ESPN2.

You can use WatchESPN on your Windows, macOS, or Linux computer or laptop, as long as you have a web browser like Chrome or Firefox that supports streaming and a high-speed internet connection. The final thing you need is a valid cable or satellite subscription because this site is only for paying subscribers.

Here's how to stream the US Open through WatchESPN:

1. Navigate to WatchESPN.com when the US Open is on the air. Locate the player that is labeled US Open, and click the play button.

   If you see your cable or satellite provider's logo in the upper right corner of the page, you may not have to log in. Click on the US Open player, and the live video will start playing right away if you were logged in automatically.

2. Select your cable or satellite provider.

3. Log into your cable or satellite account and click Sign In, Log in, or Continue.

   The login page you see will vary depending on your provider, but you will always have to enter your cable or satellite account email and password to log in.

4. If the US Open video doesn't automatically open, return to WatchESPN.com and click the play button again.

What Streaming Services Include the US Open?

Cable and satellite subscribers can stream the US Open through WatchESPN with a qualifying subscription, but that isn't an option for cord-cutters. The best way for cord-cutters to stream the US Open is to use a television streaming service. If you prefer, you can also catch some of the action with a separate ESPN+ subscription.

Television streaming services are a good way for cord-cutters to watch the US Open because they provide access to the same live television channels that you would normally watch on cable or satellite. The difference is that you stream live television through a high-speed internet connection instead of watching through cable or satellite.
