Tickets for the US Open Tennis Championships go on sale in less than two weeks — but there is a way of getting them early.
The tournament will commence in New York City on Monday 29 August and run until on Sunday 11 September.
This year’s US Open is eagerly anticipated after the jaw-dropping games last year brought in 796,000 viewers in the US alone.
The incredible 2021 tournament saw 18-year-old Emily Radacanu make tennis history as the first woman to win the Open with so few attempts.
It also crowned Radacanu the youngest grand slam champion since 2004, the first British woman to win a grand slam title since 1977, and the first ever qualifier to win a grand slam title.
This year will be the 142nd edition of Tennis’ US Open to date.
Currently, the French Open is taking place at Roland Garros. You can keep up with all the action on the Independent’s live blog here.
