The final week begins on 8 September

After the Round of 16 concludes on 6 and 7 September, the 2026 US Open moves into quarterfinals week at Flushing Meadows. Men's and women's singles quarterfinals are scheduled across Tuesday, 8 September, and Wednesday, 9 September, with day sessions from 11:30 a.m. and night sessions from 7:00 p.m. Eastern.

The quarterfinal stage reduces each draw to four players, setting up the semifinal pairings that determine who reaches the championship weekend. Both singles draws play quarterfinals on the same two days, unlike some Grand Slams that split men's and women's quarterfinals across separate days.

Semifinals and finals calendar

Women's semifinals are scheduled for Thursday, 10 September, in the night session at 7:00 p.m. Men's semifinals follow on Friday, 11 September, with a day session at 3:00 p.m. and a night session at 7:00 p.m. The women's singles final is on Saturday, 12 September, at 4:00 p.m., and the men's final on Sunday, 13 September, at 2:00 p.m.

Doubles competition runs on a parallel track: quarterfinals on 8 September, semifinals on 9 September, and the women's doubles final on Friday, 11 September, at 12:00 p.m. Mixed doubles, if scheduled, typically concludes before the singles semifinals.

How to follow the order of play

The US Open publishes its order of play each evening for the following day on usopen.org, including court assignments for Arthur Ashe, Louis Armstrong, and the Grandstand. Television and streaming partners carry session coverage, with night sessions on Ashe traditionally featuring the top-seeded remaining players.

Quarterfinals week historically produces the tournament's highest attendance figures outside of finals weekend, as the reduced draw concentrates star power across fewer courts and sessions.
