Tennis – US Open 2025: Full order of play, Friday 5 September

It’s time to hand out some hardware at the 2025 US Open. And where better to do it, than on centre court at Arthur Ashe Stadium on Friday, 5 September.

There, No.1 seeds Kateřina Siniaková and Taylor Townsend – champions at the 2025 Australian Open – will face off against the third seeded duo of Canadian cancer survivor Gabriela Dabrowski and Kiwi doubles standout Erin Routliffe in what’s bound to be a memorable battle for women’s doubles title at 12:00 local time (EDT, GMT-4).

As if that isn’t enough to get even the most sceptical tennis fan excited, day thirteen will then be pushed into overdrive at Flushing Meadows, as world No. 2 Carlos Alcaraz takes to centre court opposite of the Serbian maestro himself: Novak Djokovic.

The semifinal duel will mark the second time the two players have met at a Grand Slam, since playing against one another for the men’s singles gold medal at the Olympic Games Paris 2024 – a match Djokovic won.

The question is: will history repeat itself, or will Alcaraz author a story of his own at the 2025 US Open?

With the victorious player guaranteed a spot in the men’s singles final – where they’ll face the winner of another compelling duel between world No. 1 Jannik Sinner and Canadian underdog Felix Auger-Aliassime – the stakes couldn’t be any higher at Flushing Meadows.
