Tennis fans will be able to watch the US Open final free of charge on at 9.00 p.m. tonight (Saturday 11th September), after Channel 4 struck a last-minute deal with Amazon to share the broadcast of the historic match.

The grand slam final, in which the amazing eighteen year old British teenager Emma Raducanu will compete against the 19-year-old Canadian Leylah Fernandez, will begin at 9 p.m. – with pre-game coverage beginning at 8 p.m. Raducanu, 18, is the first British woman in a grand slam singles final since Virginia Wade at Wimbledon in 1977.
Channel 4’s chief content officer, Ian Katz, said, ‘Emma’s meteoric rise to secure a place in the US Open Final is just sensational. We’re glad to have worked with Prime Video and pulled out all the stops to get it on air and I’m sure viewers will be thrilled at the prospect of watching Emma in this grand slam final.’
