Britain’s leading players, including Emma Raducanu, Jack Draper and Katie Boulter, will take to the stage on Tuesday at the US Open, live on Sky Sports.

US Open tennis 2024 – live updates

British women’s No 1 Boulter will be first in action at 4pm BST when she takes on Aliaksandra Sasnovich at Flushing Meadows.

Boulter has been consistent this year, winning two WTA Tour titles, but she will want to make progress at a Grand Slam as so far in 2024 she has not gone beyond the second round at one of the majors.

Dan Evans will play second on Court 6, which could take place at around 6pm BST. He will face the dangerous Karen Khachanov.

Expectations will not be high for Evans as he has won just five ATP Tour matches all year. But he will be buoyed by his heroic displays alongside Andy Murray in the Olympic doubles tournament in Paris.

Draper’s run to the fourth round last year shows he is a threat on the American hard courts. Draper gets his tournament under way against China’s Zhang Zhizhen. They are expected to play at around 7pm.

Draper, the British men’s No 1, has been accused of cheating after a controversial match point in the Cincinnati Open against Felix Auger-Aliassime where he appeared to hit the ball into the ground at the net before it looped over.

The umpire Greg Allensworth ruled it was a legal shot but Draper, who insists he is not a cheat, has attracted criticism for not conceding the point.

Reaching the quarter-finals of that tournament, however, is an encouraging sign for Draper, though he did split with coach Wayne Ferreira just before this competition.

Emma Raducanu, the 2021 US Open champion, will not play before 11pm BST.

She has a tough draw, going straight in with another Grand Slam winner, Sofia Kenin, who won the Australian Open in 2020.

“I just feel a real fire back and desire,” said Raducanu, who reached round four of Wimbledon this year, her best performance at a Slam since her unexpected US Open win.

That of course raises the question – can she repeat her historic triumph?

“I’m very, very confident,” Sky Sports‘ Naomi Cavaday said of Raducanu’s chances. “The US Open is a place that she absolutely loves. She is beyond a superstar there, just like she is here. I could absolutely see her finding her best level.”

Fellow Sky Sports commentator Jonathan Overend added: “When she came through qualifying and won in 2021, it deemed all predictions irrelevant for pretty much the rest of time.

“Could she do it again? You have to say that absolutely she could.”

Big names in action

International stars will also be in action at Arthur Ashe Stadium.

Iga Swiatek takes on Kamilla Rakhimova from 5pm.

World No 1 Jannik Sinner, hoping to put his drug-test controversy behind him, plays immediately after against Mackenzie McDonald.

Wimbledon champion Carlos Alcaraz insists an apparent ankle injury sustained in training on Saturday will be no impediment. He will put that to the test against Australia’s Li Tu at midnight.
