Day 5 completes the Round of 64 with a 32-match slate, 16 men’s and 16 women’s. Arthur Ashe Stadium hosts Naomi Osaka (-399) and Taylor Fritz (-970) in the day session, with Coco Gauff (-770) and Alexander Zverev (-650) closing out the evening. The day’s most compelling storyline may belong to Gael Monfils, who at 40 years old draws 20-year-old Learner Tien on Armstrong, while former world #4 Qinwen Zheng plays as a qualifier for the first time in her career.
Here’s today’s schedule along with DraftKings odds for each men’s and women’s matchup.

Matches to Watch
Paula Badosa (+487) vs. [4] Coco Gauff (-770) is the headliner of the Ashe evening session and the most intriguing women’s match of the round. Badosa (ranked #87, Spain), a former world #2, beat Daria Kasatkina in a tight first-round battle and has the weapons to trouble anyone on her day. Gauff (ranked #4, USA) has been sensational in 2026 with a 40-13 record and a 25-6 hard-court mark, but at 22, she draws the kind of experienced, high-pedigree opponent that can disrupt her rhythm. The New York crowd will be firmly behind Gauff, and Badosa will need her best tennis to pull the upset.
Gael Monfils (+344) vs. [14] Learner Tien (-491) is a 20-year generation gap wrapped in an Armstrong night session. Monfils (ranked #311, France), now 40 years old, is a former world #6 whose 4-9 record in 2026 suggests the twilight is real. But Monfils in New York, under the lights, in front of a crowd that adores him, is a different proposition entirely. Tien (ranked #15, USA), the left-handed 20-year-old, has the game and the seeding, but the Frenchman has been defying father time at this tournament for two decades.
[1] Alexander Zverev (-650) vs. Quentin Halys (+431) closes Ashe with a line that is surprisingly tight for the top seed. Zverev (ranked #2, Germany) has posted a 46-13 season, but his first round was delayed, and Halys (ranked #60, France) is no pushover. At +431, the Frenchman is getting enough respect from DraftKings to make this worth watching.
Qinwen Zheng (Q) (-283) vs. Yulia Putintseva (+214) features the most overqualified qualifier in the draw. Zheng (ranked #121, China), a former world #4, has been battling through a 11-13 season but owns the kind of talent that can torch anyone from the baseline. Putintseva (ranked #84, Kazakhstan) is a scrappy competitor with a 23-20 record, and this should be a fascinating styles clash on Court 12.
Biggest Favorites
[8] Iga Swiatek vs. Nadia Podoroska (+1940) carries the widest line available on the Day 5 card. The former world #1 (ranked #8, Poland) brings a 33-13 record (21-7 on hard courts) against Podoroska (ranked #449, Argentina). DraftKings has only posted Podoroska’s +1940 underdog line, implying a roughly 95% win probability for Swiatek.
[13] Lorenzo Musetti (-3300) should cruise past Dane Sweeny on Stadium 17. The Italian (ranked #14), a former world #5, has gone 11-5 on hard courts in 2026, while Sweeny (ranked #123, Australia) carries a .500 record (17-17 on hard courts). The -3300 line is the second-widest of the day.
[5] Mirra Andreeva (-1360) continues her breakout season against Eva Lys on Stadium 17. The 19-year-old (ranked #5) has posted a dominant 40-13 record, while Lys (ranked #98, Germany) limps in with a 2-5 hard-court mark.
[9] Taylor Fritz (-970) opens the Ashe afternoon session against the left-handed Mattia Bellucci. Fritz (ranked #10, USA) has gone 20-10 on hard courts and should handle the Italian (ranked #95), who has split 14-13 on the surface.
[22] Madison Keys (-920) faces Anna Bondar on Stadium 17. Keys (ranked #23, USA), a former world #5 and 2017 US Open finalist, has posted a 33-14 record this season and is heavily favored against the Hungarian (ranked #73).
Upset Watch
Alexei Popyrin (+135) vs. [25] Alejandro Tabilo (-172) is the tightest seed match on the men’s board. Popyrin (ranked #130, Australia), a former world #19, has cratered to a 5-12 hard-court record in 2026, but his talent level remains dangerous. The left-handed Tabilo (ranked #28, Chile) is 10-8 on hard courts, a pedestrian mark for a seed. The +135 line says this is anyone’s match.
Jan-Lennard Struff (+132) vs. [24] Francisco Cerundolo (-168) sits right next to it in the upset odds. Struff (ranked #44, Germany) is 36 but has a former career-high of #21 and the kind of big serve that translates to hard courts. Cerundolo (ranked #25, Argentina) is 7-7 on the surface, hardly the record of a player who should feel comfortable as a seed.
[32] Maria Sakkari (-189) vs. Yuliia Starodubtseva (+148) is another tight one for the Greek. Sakkari (ranked #33), a former world #3, has posted a mediocre 19-17 record in 2026, and Starodubtseva (ranked #58, Ukraine) at +148 is getting serious respect. Sakkari barely survived the first round, and the oddsmakers are not convinced she will be around for the third.
Benjamin Bonzi (+100) vs. [32] Ignacio Buse (-126) is the closest line on the entire Thursday card. Bonzi (ranked #97, France) is essentially a pick’em against the 32nd seed Buse (ranked #36, Peru), whose 7-4 hard-court record is built on a thin sample. At +100, this is a coin flip.
