CrackStreams: Khachanov vs Ruud Live Free Tennis H2H, Scores, Schedule, Results At 09/09/2022

THE FINAL GRAND Slam tennis tournament of the year is in full swing, as the 2022 U.S. Open enters its second week.

Usual hype aside, this year’s U.S. Open has generated an exceptional amount of headlines. The big story is, of course, Serena Williams, who played what will almost certainly be her last tournament match on Friday against Ajla Tomljanovic. After a three-hour and five-minute match, Tomljanovic bested the legendary Williams 7-5, 6-7 (4), 6-1.

Another exciting moment in this year’s tournament happened on Monday when the 24-year-old Frances Tiafoe ended Rafael Nadal’s 22-match Grand Slam winning streak. Tiafoe’s victory made him the youngest American man to make it this far in the U.S. Open since Andy Roddick in 2006.

Even with all that’s happened at the 2022 U.S. Open, there’s plenty of excitement to come. For cable-cutters looking to catch the tournament live, there are a few ways to watch the U.S. Open online without cable this year — and even a couple of hacks that let you live stream the rest of the tournament for free online. Read on for all your options, plus key details about this year’s U.S. Open
