Here is the **US Open 2026 schedule** at a glance.

How the Fortnight Builds
The first week is sprawling: 128 players in each singles draw, day and night sessions across the grounds. By the middle weekend — Labor Day in the US — the round of 16 turns Flushing Meadows into the loudest ticket in the sport. Then the second week compresses fast: quarterfinals over two days, semifinals under the Arthur Ashe lights, and the finals.
If you only track one thing, track the night sessions on Arthur Ashe Stadium — New York tennis at its loudest, and usually where the tournament turns.
The Two Finals: Saturday and Sunday
The US Open closes with its singles finals on the last weekend: the women's singles final on Saturday 12 September and the men's singles final on Sunday 13 September. Both are showpiece afternoons on Arthur Ashe — the final two matches of the Grand Slam year.
