The good news is that the 2023 US Open is available to stream live in Australia. However, the bad news is that the first serve will be happening at, yep, you guessed it, 1 a.m. AEST thanks to that pesky thing known as time zones.

If you’ve stocked up on Red Bulls and are ready for an all-nighter, then you can tune into the first match of the US Open at 1am AEST on Tuesday, August 29 via Stan Sport.

The world-famous tennis competition will see 14 straight days of action, with the final match scheduled for Monday, September 11.
