The easiest way to listen to the 2026 US Open is through US Open Radio, the tournament’s official online audio service. Tennis fans can also check sports stations such as BBC Radio 5 Live, SiriusXM, TSN Radio, SEN and ABC Sport for tournament news, reports and scheduled coverage.

However, not every station will carry complete live match audio. Coverage depends on the station’s schedule, broadcasting rights and the listener’s location. Always check the latest programme information before a match begins.

When is the US Open 2026?

The main draw of the 2026 US Open is scheduled to take place from 30 August to 13 September 2026. Fan Week and qualifying are scheduled for 24–29 August.

The tournament is held in New York, so international listeners should convert match times into their local time zone. A night match in New York may begin early the following morning in parts of Asia and Australia.

Daily match times can also change because of weather or earlier matches running longer than expected. The latest session information is available on the official US Open schedule.

Can you listen to the US Open on the radio?

Yes, but the main official option is an online audio service rather than a traditional FM frequency.

US Open Radio lets fans follow the tournament through the US Open website. Listeners can also check the official mobile app for audio availability, scores and match information.

An internet connection is required. If you listen using mobile data, normal data charges may apply.

Access conditions can vary by location. Open the official player before the match to confirm that the audio is available in your country.

Radio stations and services to check

US Open Radio should be the first option for anyone looking for official live audio. Several sports stations may also provide tennis news, interviews, results or selected coverage during the tournament.

Here are some useful examples:

• BBC Radio 5 Live: UK listeners can check the station for tennis news, reports and any US Open coverage included in its schedule. Some BBC sports audio may be limited to listeners inside the UK.

• BBC Radio 5 Sports Extra: This station provides additional coverage when other sports are playing at the same time. Check its daily schedule rather than assuming that every US Open match will be available.

• SiriusXM: Tennis fans in the United States can check SiriusXM’s sports and tennis schedule for any announced US Open programming. SiriusXM is generally a paid service, and channel availability depends on the subscription.

• ESPN Radio: ESPN Radio may provide tournament news, interviews and updates. Complete radio coverage of every match should not be assumed unless it appears in the current schedule.

• TSN Radio: Canadian listeners can check TSN stations such as TSN 1050 Toronto, TSN 690 Montréal and TSN 1200 Ottawa for news and tournament discussion.

These are stations and services worth checking. They should not be presented as confirmed providers of every US Open match. Each broadcaster decides what it carries, and online sports audio may be restricted in some countries.

How can international listeners follow the tournament?

There is no single FM station that carries the US Open in every country. International listeners should begin with the official US Open audio service and then check sports stations available in their region.

A simple approach is:

1. Open the official US Open schedule.
2. Confirm the match time in your local time zone.
3. Check US Open Radio for live audio.
4. Look at the schedules of relevant local sports stations.
5. Test the audio before the match begins.

Be careful with websites claiming to offer free global access to every match. Unofficial streams may be unreliable and can disappear during play.

Finding sports radio stations with Radio FM

Radio FM can help you explore sports and talk-radio stations from different countries. Search for a station by name or browse the sports category to see which stations are available in your region.

For example, listeners could search for BBC Radio 5 Live, TSN Radio, SEN or ABC stations. If you find a useful station, save it to Favorites before the tournament begins. You can also use Recent Listening to return to a station without searching for it again.

Radio FM helps with station discovery and convenient listening. It does not control a broadcaster’s schedule or geographic rights. A station may be available through Radio FM while its US Open programme is restricted or unavailable in your country.

The official tournament service remains the best place to confirm live audio. Radio FM can then help you explore additional sports stations for news, analysis and updates.

How to listen on your phone

Listening on a phone is useful when you are commuting, working or travelling.

Follow these steps:

1. Check which matches are playing that day.
2. Open US Open Radio or search for a scheduled sports station.
3. Test the audio five to ten minutes before the match.
4. Save useful stations to your Favorites.
5. Keep another audio option ready in case the first one is unavailable.

Online radio uses data. A stable Wi-Fi connection may be more practical for a long tennis session if your mobile plan has a limited data allowance.

Can you listen while travelling?

You may be able to follow the US Open while travelling, but sports-audio rights often change across borders. A station that works at home may not carry the same programme in another country.

Before travelling:

• Confirm the local match time.
• Check whether official US Open audio is available at your destination.
• Explore local sports stations through Radio FM.
• Save more than one station in advance.
• Do not depend on an old station schedule.

If the audio stops when the match begins, it may be due to a geographic restriction rather than a technical problem.

Listening while driving

Audio coverage is useful when watching the match is not possible. Select the station and adjust the volume before beginning your journey.

If you acquires Radio FM Premium, you can use a Car Mode feature, it offers a simpler interface designed to reduce unnecessary interaction with the phone. Drivers should still keep their attention on the road, follow local laws and avoid searching for stations while the vehicle is moving.

Tips for a better listening experience

Check the schedule on matchday

Tennis schedules often change. Earlier matches may run longer than expected, especially when a match reaches a deciding set.

Test the audio early

Starting the stream a few minutes early gives you time to confirm that the correct match is available.

Understand the type of coverage

A station may provide tournament updates without carrying live match audio. Read the programme description before listening.

Check both time and date

A New York night session may begin on the following calendar day in another country.

Save stations before the tournament

Adding sports stations to Radio FM Favorites can make them easier to find when a match is about to start.
