How to watch the US Open 2021: Live stream tennis online

History is up for grabs for Novak Djokovic, while Naomi Osaka will be hoping to defend her title - read on to find out how to get a 2021 US Open live stream and watch tennis online no matter where you are in the world.

A win for Serbian star Djokovic would see him become the most decorated player in the men's game as well as the first man to win all four grand slam titles in the same calendar year since Rod Laver in 1969.

Defending Men's champion Dominic Thiem will meanwhile be hoping to replicate his form from last year's tournament following a disappointing season that saw early exits and the Australian and French Opens.

Last year's beaten finalist Alexander Zverev is looking like a good bet to go one step further this time out at Flushing Meadows, with the German in great form having won the Olympic Tennis Gold medal and the ATP Cincinnati tournament in his last two outings which have both been on hard court surfaces.

The Women's tournament sees Osaka looking to claim her third US Open win and claim a rare hard court season double following her triumph in the Australian Open earlier this year, however in-form Ashleigh Barty enters this event as favorite, with the world No.1 having waltzed to this year's ATP Cincinnati title in commanding style.

Read on to find out how to watch the 2021 US Open online, no matter where you are in the world.
