The Australian Open kicks off its final week with a slew of quarterfinal matches, including a can't-miss USA vs. Poland match-up between Emma Navarro and Iga Swiatek. Below, we've put together everything you need to know about where to watch Navarro vs. Swiatek, including a free streaming option.

Emma Navarro, the world no. 8, faces off against Iga Swiatek, the world no. 2, for the duo's first-ever tour-level meeting. Last year, both Navarro and Swiatek were bounced in the third round of the Australian Open, so they've both surpassed their 2024 track record. Swiatek is a five-time Grand Slam champion, but an Australian Open title has eluded her so far. Navarro has yet to win a Grand Slam. If you're hoping to watch the two go head-to-head, you've come to the right place. Below, we'll show you how to watch the match and around what time you might expect to see the players take the court.

It's important to keep in mind that the match start times are subject to change, and any match that isn't the first of the day has a fair chance of being pretty delayed. ESPN's coverage announcement noted that the Navarro vs. Swiatek match won't start before 9 p.m. ET on Tuesday (10 a.m. AWST on Wednesday).

How to watch Navarro vs. Swiatek in the US

The best way to watch every match of the Australian Open in the US, including the Navarro vs. Swiatek quarterfinals, is through ESPN Plus. The streaming service costs $12/month and unlocks the entirety of the Australian Open, in addition to other select sporting events and coverage. This will be a handy subscription to hang onto heading into the semifinals and finals later this week.

If you'd rather explore tonight's match through an option that carries more than just ESPN-related coverage, a live TV streaming package might be the way to go. ESPN2 offers live coverage of the Australian Open starting at 9 p.m. ET tonight. TV guides have the channel's coverage blocked out until 1 a.m. ET, which will most likely be the window that the Navarro vs. Swiatek match airs in. ESPN proper will start coverage at 3 a.m. ET, running until 7 a.m. ET. There are other ongoing matches at the same time, including some men's and women's doubles quarterfinals, so there's a chance some ESPN2 coverage will overlap with the singles matches. For uninterrupted access, we recommend ESPN Plus. Otherwise, Sling TV, Fubo, and DirecTV Stream will be able to help you out.

Sling TV's Orange plan ($46/month, half-off first month) carries ESPN, ESPN2, and 33 other live channels, Fubo's Essential plan ($80/month, seven-day free trial) carries ESPN, ESPN2, and around 185+ live channels, and DirecTV Stream's Entertainment plan ($87/month, five-day free trial) carries ESPN, ESPN2, and around 90+ other live channels. People in select regions can also try out DirecTV Stream's new MySports plan, which offers 25+ channels (including ESPN and ESPN2) for $70/month (with $20/month off of your first three months).
