It’s about time for the 2020 Western & Southern Open live streams, which are going to bring the best and brightest ATP pros on the court back to our TVs. And unlike past W&S Opens, this year's events are taking place in New York's USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center, rather than Cincinnati.
As of this moment, we're to expect Novak Djokovic and Russia's defending champion Daniil Medvedev to headline the men's side, and Serena Williams to be joined by the likes of Naomi Osaka, Coco Gauff and Sofia Kenin.

Djokovic knows the Flushing Meadows, NY venue well, having won three US Open titles there in the past. He'll have his hands full, though, with the likes of top-ranked ATP stars such as David Goffin (BEL, 10th ranked) Dominic Thiem (AUT, 3rd ranked), Stefanos Tsitsipas (GRE, 6th ranked), Alexander Zverev (GER, 7th ranked) and Matteo Berrettini (ITA, 8th ranked).
Meanwhile, the women's ranks have 3 of the top ATP-ranked pros, with Karolina Pliskova (CZE, 3rd ranked) and the USA's Sofia Kenin (4th ranked) and Serena (9th ranked).
