Another epic finals battle between Carlos Alcaraz and Novak Djokovic might be in the cards, as they are ranked No. 1 and No. 2 on the men's side. Their five-setter in the Wimbledon final instantly became an all-time classic, while their recent duel in Cincinnati was a three-set showdown.
Of course, they're not the only players in the hunt for the U.S. Open title. No. 3 seed Daniil Medvedev, No. 4 Holger Rune and No. 5 Casper Ruud figure to make deep runs, while the top-ranked American, Taylor Fritz, is hoping to earn his first major on home turf.
On the women's side, No. 1 seed Iga Swiatek looks to forget a disappointing Wimbledon result, as is No. 2 Aryna Sabalenka. As the No. 3 seed, American Jessica Pegula is sure to draw plenty of support in her bid for her first Grand Slam.
You can follow it all by watching a US Open live stream and we'll show you how to do that below.

How to watch the 2023 US Open live streams from anywhere with a VPN
A VPN, or virtual private network, makes it look as if you're surfing the web from your home country, rather than the one you're in. That means you can access the streaming services you already pay for, from anywhere on Earth. Or anywhere that has an internet connection, at least.
For instance, an Australian who's currently in the U.S. could watch the US Open live streams on 9Now, even though they're not in Australia.
They're totally legal, inexpensive and easy to use. We've tested lots of the best VPN services and our favorite right now is ExpressVPN. It's fast, works on loads of devices and even offers a 30-day money-back guarantee.
Using a VPN is incredibly simple.
1. Install the VPN of your choice. As we've said, ExpressVPN is our favorite.
2. Choose the location you wish to connect to in the VPN app. For instance if you're in the U.S. and want to view an Australian service, you'd select Australia from the list.
3. Sit back and enjoy the action. Head to 9Now and watch the tennis.
