The two main contenders to lift the coveted Coupe des Mousquetaires are set to battle it out on Friday as Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner face off in this French Open Men’s semifinal. 

With defending champ Novak Djokovic’s withdrawal through injury on Wednesday, the path looks clear for this much-anticipated clash between Wimbledon winner Alcaraz and Australian Open champion Sinner. 

Despite question marks over their fitness coming into this tournament, both players have dropped just a single set each on their way to this stage. Alcarez will draw encouragement from winning the most recent encounter between the two at Indian Wells back in March, a result which brought the pair level at 4-4 in their head-to-heads. 

Below, we’ll outline the best live TV streaming services to use to watch the French Open 2024 live wherever you are in the world.

The game is set to get underway no earlier than 2:30 p.m. CET local time in France, making it a 8:30 a.m. ET or 5:30 a.m. PT start in the US and Canada, and a 1:30 p.m. BST start in the UK.

How to watch or stream Carlos Alcaraz vs. Jannik Sinner in the US

The French Open is being shown live on NBC, Tennis Channel and Peacock. If you don’t have a cable or satellite TV subscription, you can watch the matches on NBC and Tennis Channel with a live TV streaming service. For the big matches at the end of the tournament on NBC, however, you will need to make sure you can get a live feed of NBC in your area. In some markets, you can watch on-demand but not live content from NBC and the other local networks.

If you live in an area with good reception, you can watch matches on NBC for free just by attaching an affordable (under $30) indoor antenna to nearly any TV.

How to watch the French Open from anywhere with a VPN

If you find yourself unable to view the tournament locally, you may need a different way to watch — that’s where using a VPN can come in handy. A VPN is also the best way to stop your ISP from throttling your speeds on game day by encrypting your traffic, and it’s also a great idea if you’re traveling and find yourself connected to a Wi-Fi network, and you want to add an extra layer of privacy for your devices and logins.

With a VPN, you’re able to virtually change your location on your phone, tablet or laptop to get access to the game. So if your internet provider or mobile carrier has stuck you with an IP address that incorrectly shows your location in a blackout zone, a VPN can correct that problem by giving you an IP address in your correct, nonblackout area. Most VPNs, like our Editors’ Choice, ExpressVPN, make it really easy to do this.

Using a VPN to watch or stream sports is legal in any country where VPNs are legal, including the US, UK and Canada, as long as you have a legitimate subscription to the service you’re streaming. You should be sure your VPN is set up correctly to prevent leaks: Even where VPNs are legal, the streaming service may terminate the account of anyone it deems to be circumventing correctly applied blackout restrictions.

Looking for other options? Be sure to check out some of the other great VPN deals taking place right now.

Quick tips for streaming the French Open using a VPN 

  • With four variables at play — your ISP, browser, video streaming provider and VPN — your experience and success when streaming the tournament may vary.
  • If you don’t see your desired location as a default option for ExpressVPN, try using the “search for city or country” option.
  • If you’re having trouble getting the game after you’ve turned on your VPN and set it to the correct viewing area, there are two things you can try for a quick fix. First, log into your streaming service subscription account and make sure the address registered for the account is an address in the correct viewing area. If not, you may need to change the physical address on file with your account. Second, some smart TVs — like Roku — don’t have VPN apps you can install directly on the device itself. Instead, you’ll have to install the VPN on your router or the mobile hotspot you’re using (like your phone) so that any device on its Wi-Fi network now appears in the correct viewing location.
  • All of the VPN providers we recommend have helpful instructions on their main site for quickly installing the VPN on your router. In some cases with smart TV services, after you install a cable network’s sports app, you’ll be asked to verify a numeric code or click a link sent to your email address on file for your smart TV. This is where having a VPN on your router will also help, since both devices will appear to be in the correct location. 
  • And remember, browsers can often give away a location despite using a VPN, so be sure you’re using a privacy-first browser to log into your services. We normally recommend Brave.
