How to watch the DC Open in the US

DC Open coverage is available through the Tennis Channel in the US. Select match coverage will also be shown through Tennis Channel 2 (T2). There are several ways to live stream the Tennis Channel, including directly with a paid subscription through the Tennis Channel website. You can also get it as part of a live TV streaming service, which lets you watch other popular channels, like ESPN (which you'll need for the US Open next month).

Fubo is one of the best live TV streaming services we've tested. The Tennis Channel and T2 are both available through all of Fubo's main plans, including the budget-friendly Sports + News package. Subscriptions start at $65 a month, but new users can get at least $10 off their first month after a free trial.

YouTube TV is another popular live TV service. To access the Tennis Channel, you'll need the NFL RedZone with Sports Plus add-on, which costs an additional $11 a month. You can add it to either of YouTube TV's plans. YouTube TV's main plan costs $83 a month, but first-time customers can get $15 a month off their first five months after a free trial. YouTube TV's sports plan costs $65 a month, but new users can get $10 a month off their first 12 months of service.

How to watch the DC Open in the UK

How to watch the DC Open from anywhere

If you're traveling away from home, you can still keep up with your usual watch options with the help of a VPN. Short for virtual private networks, VPNs are easy-to-use tech tools that allow people to temporarily alter their device's virtual location. This way, their favorite websites and apps work from anywhere in the world, just like they would back home. Since the services we've recommended require country-specific payment methods, this option will work best for those who are simply traveling abroad and hoping to access their usual watch options.

NordVPN is one of the best VPNs on the market. It's fast, user-friendly, and offers impressive cybersecurity perks. The service also comes with a 30-day money-back guarantee, so it's no sweat if you find that it's not what you're looking for.
