For two weeks late in August, the Billie Jean King National Tennis Center transforms into the epicenter of tennis. With the Olympics, French Open and Australian Open in the books for the year, the remaining main draw matches in men’s singles, women’s singles, men’s doubles and mixed doubles offer the final opportunity for players to secure a major title. This year, the US Open is expanding to 15 days of action at Arthur Ashe Stadium, with a new scheduling format designed to provide fans with more matches and more drama.

Tip #1: Check Schedule for Day-By-Day Breakdown

The US Open starts on the last Monday of August, with qualifying and other fan events held during the week leading up to the first full week of main draw play. Each day of the tournament, the US Open publishes a detailed daily Schedule of Play that lists the matches scheduled for that particular day (and also identifies which courts they’ll be played on). Tip #2: Use this link or the official US Open Everywhere app to track the schedule and determine whether you should head to the US Open app or resale websites like Stubhub. If you do decide to head to resale, it’s a good idea to begin monitoring the ticket situation in the days prior and make your decision carefully, as tickets can quickly become scarce and prices will rise.

After a long opening week, the field begins to narrow as top seeds face tougher competition and intriguing prospects emerge on Arthur Ashe and the outer courts. The tournament heats up heading into Labor Day weekend, and a new champion will be crowned on Sunday.
