Rob Curling will lead the channels' presenting duties, accompanied by British stars Greg Rusedski and Annabel Croft. Retired champions Pat Cash, Mats Wilander, and Mary Pierce will feature as pundits throughout the tournament, which begins on 29 August. 

All eyes will be on Wimbledon champion and two-time Olympic gold medalist Andy Murray, as he tackles his fourth Grand Slam competition of the year.

Managing Director of Discovery Networks UK and Ireland, Susanna Dinnage said: "With unrivalled multiplatform coverage and a world-class line-up of expert analysts and commentators, Eurosport is providing the most comprehensive coverage of the US Open to date in the UK.
