WATCH: Mom tennis players make a splash at 2026 US Open
ESPN's Malika Andrews spotlights the moms making their mark at this year's U.S. Open, including Serena Williams, Taylor Townsend and Elina Svitolina.
The 2026 US Open is set to take place at the Flushing Meadows hard courts from today until September 13. The prestigious Grand Slam event will once again draw top tennis talent from around the world to New York. However, world No. 1 Jannik Sinner will not be competing due to an ongoing right knee injury. His absence opens the door for Carlos Alcaraz to make his return to the US Open after a wrist injury sidelined him for several months.
Italy's strong presence in the tournament will be showcased by players such as Lorenzo Musetti, Matteo Berrettini, Matteo Arnaldi, Luciano Darderi, Lorenzo Sonego, and Mattia Bellucci in the men's draw. In the women's draw, Jasmine Paolini and Elisabetta Cocciaretto will represent Italy alongside other top WTA Tour stars. With ATP Tour and WTA Tour tournaments airing on NOW, fans can stream all the action from the US Open and other major tennis events, including the Nitto ATP Finals and Wimbledon.
In addition to tennis, viewers can enjoy a variety of sports, including Formula 1®, MotoGP®, and various football leagues through NOW's exclusive streaming rights.
